Suunto Vertical: Bug Collection

[Kurt68]

@surfboomerang for me it was the 3rd run. The first 2 worked perfectly. But I’ve already read here that I’m not the only one where the vertical crashed.

Maps: Downloaded one US state overnight - Nevada. Maps not visible. Powered on/off device. Maps not visible. Only black screen, no grid. Watch is trying to get fix.

After you download a map region, do you have to get a gps fix to see the map or can it use your last known location? I had a fix before last night so I thought it would use that.

Default HR Zones: set running HR zones first. Came back to Default HR Zones and only Max HR rate was set. Rest was — for HR and n/a for percentage. Powered on/off device. Default HR now filled in.

@seanvk to see maps you need a GPS fix

@isazi Worked! Thank you

Did couple of steady runs, 30min, HR135-140 all was good except in each of those runs there was couple of peaks where HR jumps to 170, stays there couple of seconds and comes back to 140

Can confirm, the same happened today to me (at one time it showed 210, which is not even my cadence, so it could not have locked to it). Also it seems that it has slower reactions to sudden spikes (e.g. uphill running).

@jakubdr Do not reconnect if possible. just do a fake activity

Second time was the charm. Very slow to upload though.

The raise-to-wake feature is a little bit overreactive. Minimal movement enables the backlight. It also seems that the watch is ignoring the light sensor. Even with bright light the backlight is still enabled sometimes.

Just checked my HR zones:

I set them on initial setup 3 days ago, I wanted to tweak some values…

I get an opposite result, running above 170, hr back to 140.

@Likarnik
Did you reset the watch ?

[Likarnik]

@sartoric yes, it worked like 3days ago when setting power zones (post earlier in this topic). Just posting info for devs, not sure if root cause is same for all zone types… I hope hotfix will get rid of all those bugs.

Excessive battery drain of approx 5% per hour when using S+ apps (Decoupling & Fat Burner). First noticed after a run that the battery percentage was suspiciously low(er) after a 1 hour run. Tested it again yesterday - during a bike ride - with both S+ apps selected the battery drain was 5% per hour.

Additionally neither of the apps functioned correctly as they were selected after the start of the exercise. Decoupling was waiting for the start of the activity and Fat Burner was not adding up any energy expenditure. As a side note - For the before-mentioned run both of these S+ apps were selected before the start of the exercise and seemingly functioned as intended - but the battery drain was also present.

@isazi, has this been noted or should I open a new thread?

@surfboomerang
you can set it from high to low and it will work as we are used to

[surfboomerang]

@freeheeler I always had it on low but I still have the feeling that it is much more sensitive than my S9P.
Also, if I’m not mistaken, the high/low setting has nothing to do with the sensitivity but only with the intensity of the backlight

[freeheeler]

@surfboomerang
I did not read the manual yet but I’ve tried while sitting at the desk and noticed that high/low must be the reactivity. otherwize it would be named bright/low?

@freeheeler

From the manual
Automatic backlight
The backlight has three features that you can adjust: the level of brightness (Brightness), how the standby backlight activates (Standby), and whether the backlight activates when you raise and turn your wrist (Raise to wake).

The backlight features can be adjusted from the settings under General » Backlight.

The Brightness setting determines the overall intensity of the backlight; Low, Medium or High.

The Standby setting controls the screen brightness when there is no active backlight turned on (e.g. triggered by button presses). Standby can be toggled to on or off:
On: Standby light is on all the time.
Off: Standby light is off.

The Raise to wake feature activates the backlight when raising your wrist to look at the watch. The three options for Raise to wake are:

High: Raising your wrist activates high intensity backlight
Low: Raising your wrist activates low intensity backlight. Note that this intensity is same as standby intensity, i.e. if standby light is set to ON, raising your wrist will not change the light.
Off: Raising your wrist does nothing

@mikekoski490

I need to double check. I was convinced I notice it reducing the reactivity
edit: ok, another test gave another impression
… wishful thinking

Today is the first - since SV arrived - when we have clear sky here in Hungary. The weather forecast shows this for the coming night.
Is this by design or a bug?
(I mean sun icon can see for the whole night. I think a moon would be better choice.

@kamarasm It’s always sunny in Philadelphia Hungary.
