6 days agoi would like if i raise the watch that there is blacklight. I tried all the different settings.
my current setting is: On: Raising your wrist in regular time mode or during an exercise will activate backlight.
and Standby: adaptiv
generall backlight: offthanks for help
-
@alexej19 I’ll test if it works for me, i use raise to wake only during exercise and it works there.
-
@isazi the problem is during the nightruns and also in the night if there is the mode don’t disturbe the raise modus doesn’t work. this problem is with the suunto 9 not.
-
@alexej19 so this issue only happens if you have DND (do not disturb) active?
-
@isazi yes. for instance i have don’t disturb (for the simple reason not to get all the msg) from 20-7:30 and in that time the function rise doesn’t work. in the night if i like to see the time also therefore i have to press a buttun. which is not ideal. in any case, even if the not disturb mode is switched on the sensitiveness of “raise” is verry bad. Sorry for that. in any case i like the suunto brand very much and will not change. but such bugs are not soo good
-
@alexej19 well this is how it is supposed to work, no? With DND backlight should not work unless a button is pressed. As for sensitivity, yes it is not good enough.
-
@isazi no it should work if you rise it (as on the suunto 9) even if it is not disturb light should go on…otherwise you always have to press a button in the night, during sleeping when the what is on your table beside the bed.
-
@alexej19 it should not do that also on the S9. It has been fixed in the next firmware. With DND no light is on unless you press a button.
-
Let’s call it “by design”. By design the light should not come on with raising the watch during DND.
Maybe someone would like to have it in a different way, but this is what Suunto’s engineers have planned. Reason is for the light to stay off, if you turn in your bed wearing the watch. -
@egika yes ok thanks. it is understandable during night by turning. but, many don’t wear the whatch in the night but leave it beside the bed and if they press the wrong button (no the middle one) the whatch turns in sport modus or in heart monitoring…so you wake up ;-). i suggest a solution: in DND modus that backlight could be switched on (force backlight on). so in the night if you lift the watch it switches on and after you leave it down on you table beside after a few seconds it switches in any case off. I handle it at the moment that way, before i sleep i force the backlight on manualy. I don’t understand why suunto 9 it worked automatically.

Hi
Raise to wake does not work. I do not have DND on, but still not working. I have to press center button to wake watch. I just got the watch. Is it connected to the latest update?
-
@jan-skolimowski How is your watch set in Settings?
-
@brad_olwin
Backlight:Brightness - High
Standby - Adaptive
Raise to Wake - On -
@brad_olwin hi, any ideas?
-
@jan-skolimowski soft reboot watch. I have two S9 Peaks and both are working fine for backlight.
-
Hi Brad,
made soft and hard restart - problem still here.
What’s next? Trying to change watch at local distributor?

@jan-skolimowski contact support.
-
@jan-skolimowski Just to be sure - you have tried shaking your watch like crazy, right?
Because raise to wake is not extremely sensitive, it needs quite some acceleration… If you are raising your hand slowly, it won’t react…SV: fingers crossed :D
S9 (non-baro): died after 2 months, replaced, holding strong since 03/20
Spartan Trainer: casing broke after 23 months, repaired, lost watertightness 5 months later, died
Despite some pretty bad luck, I still love Suunto! -
@inkognito
Hi, yes if I am shaking it then it is working. I have experience with Apple Watch 2 where it worked very well. -
@jan-skolimowski wait, it is not working or it is not sensitive enough?
