Ambit3 Peak elevation gain

[Brad_Olwin]

@fazel make sure baro sensor holes are not clogged and weren’t. Then support.

[Dimitrios Kanellopoulos]

correct. The baro holes on the A3P are very prone to be clogged. Or sweat etc.

@Dimitrios-Kanellopoulos said in Ambit3 Peak elevation gain:

Or swear etc.

I can’t curse around my Ambit? Damn, that’s restrictive.

Oops.

@Fenr1r lol

Hello, so today the same problem after skimo. The watch shows in logbook ascent 792 m and descent 1179 m. I am posting link to Strava activity (where I have corrected elevation) as I do not have my smarthpone right now with me and cannot share from Suunto app. I have synced the watch with Suuntolink. I have cleaned the baro hole. Any more ideas? Thanks.

[fazel]

I think I win.

[Fenr1r]

@fazel Nah, you’ve just peaked.

[marcrie]

@dominikbalko looks like your descent is correct and your ascent is wrong. Do you have auto-stop on? Sometimes ski touring is so slow in the uphill, that the watch pause the activity. In that time you don’t collect ascent.

[dominikbalko]

@marcrie Yes, I have it on. You are correct, I will try it next time with off. Thank you for help.

[dominikbalko]

@marcrie Is it possible to edit minimum speed for pause?

[marcrie]

@dominikbalko in movescount you can’t change the minimum speed. I also read the app developer manual and in my opinion there is also no possibility to do it via app.

[dominikbalko]

@marcrie OK, I have browsed the apps available for watch, do you think this one should work as reminder to start activity after pause? Because I often forget to restart activity, that is why I am using auto-pause.

@dominikbalko
nice

[dominikbalko]

@freeheeler Sorry, I did not want to start a new thread as the auto-pause was related to this.

[marcrie]

@dominikbalko looks good but just try it ;-). Maybe you have to set the value ‘3’ in line 10 to 1. At the moment the alarm beeps only if you are faster than 3km/h. I don’t know how fast you climb :-).

[fazel]

@Fenr1r have you read Sanderson (Way of Kings)? You remind me of Wit (aptly named).

[marcrie]

@fazel maybe one of Elon Musks satellites started, hit a gps satellit and pushed it 3500m out of orbit

@dominikbalko
don’t get me wrong, it just reminded me how great those ambit apps were. I don’t entirely miss them but it is just great what’s possible

[zzmike76]

am facing a similar issue when going skitouring, I get always 200/300 meters more than in reality. I have Fusedalti activated, and noticed that the altitude is decreasing costantly when temperature drops (e.g exiting the car before starting the tour). I suspected the barometer and sent it for RMA but Suunto claims the barometer is ok.

As I would like to avoid setting manually the altitude every time before startin, is there any other workaround?

[freeheeler]

@zzmike76
is the behaviour different when you set the altitude manually before the start?
