@дима-мельниченко @surfboomerang Thanks for both of your replies. I have asked her to clean it even though she says it doesn’t appear blocked, hasn’t been wearing anything recently that would touch it and wears it on the left wrist. I will definitely search for other topics. She’s noticing the battery draining crazy fast now too so maybe just got a lemon.

This is a very valid issue

@dimitrios-kanellopoulos - changed the laptop, installed suuntolink once again and now it all works fine! Thanks a lot!

@temafey There a number of things to remember if you want to have better swimming track results: Water doesn’t transmit GPS signal so you can get track only if you’re swimming freestyle (crawl), not breaststroke or anything when your hands underwater for long periods Enable workout mode at least a couple of minutes before actual start so watch acquires best signal Do not make pauses in water during exercise. If you pause while you’re in water and your hands under water during pause - watch is losing signal. After you continue your swim it takes time before watch gets GPS fix again. Experiment with different GNSS combinations. While for running almost any GNSS is okay nowadays, it may have an effect for OWS. Try putting watch on different hand The only way to get perfect track/distance in open water swimming - is to use Swim Buoy and put watch in it. These are mine recommendations, based on my experience. Suunto also has some on this page https://www.suunto.com/Support/faq-articles/lifecycle/how-to-get-more-accurate-open-water-swim-tracking/

@костянтин-дорошенко It is the %O2 in the atmosphere based on your elevation.

@дима-мельниченко outdoor WF is the best imo

@surfboomerang it is cumbersome to use an activity as a stop watch… especially for apnoea divers and surfers who are training for big waves

@ze-stuart Sadly I didn’t. It was happening around the time when other weirdness with heart rate and saving screen at the end of workout being stuck like forever was happening, so I chalked it off to that one.

@dimitrios-kanellopoulos so just to keep you updated. Ran today with the belt and TP as suunto+ and the Vo2 is working just fine. I guess my bad OHR readings were the result of missing Vo2. Ever since I’ve been using belt all is working flawlessly. Thanks. I will try OHR on another run and if something changes will inform. Take care!

@dimitrios-kanellopoulos Great! I use auto-pauses on bike. So it fits. Thanks a lot!

@surfboomerang it’s not so easy as it is dependent on the lights around us. But you’re right, I start here with my comparison pics: 100% backlight and no backlight. Maybe this helps @Dead-Mailbox ? I am very happy with the readability of my S9B’s screen [image: 1623299521821-pxl_20210610_042925858.jpg] [image: 1623299528640-pxl_20210610_042941059.jpg]

@enricotagliavini said in Enhancements to hearth rate with wrist sensor: s a noise cancelling algorithm in either the watch or the sensor. What I would like to be able to do is to “reset” it on demand, so I don’t have to start and stop, or possibly be I have similar when biking. I am pushing and the OHR shows me 50bpm which is ridiculous. Also when running it locks to my cadence and while I am in between 110 to 120 the watch reads 170 (my cadence). What I have noticed is that when you ‘press’ the handles of your bike and stiffen your palm the blood vessels stiffen too so less blood flow is available for the watch to get readable info. Either do not press your palms too much or wear the watch as highly as possible or even facing downwards (this will damage the GPS though).

Definitely not the only one with this problem [image: 1623066024404-screenshot_20210607-125452_resize.jpg] This is a recording of a mountain bike ride. As long as I climb at a steady pace, the HR works well, but when I change pace, do a technical climb or descend the watch struggles a lot.

@chrisc92 most important, if you can reproduce this send the logs from the watch, so the Suunto programmers can see where the bug is and fix it.

@deserthike20 This was it. I had it set to “on”. This was my only quibble with the watch. I think the combo of this set to off and using do not disturb in certain situation will give me all I need to be discreet.

@alex-m rather no then yes. You can look at your elevation graph in SA: if you don’t see the ascends where they are supposed to be, the maybe a certain configuration might help. But to my experience, it’s mostly the high smoothing threshold that causes the lower values.

@ze-stuart I agree with the issues with temperature when you wear the watch. Something also present in previous generations. I ended up adjusting the temperature. I found out that in normal situations, my Ambit 3 Peak offered around 7/9 degrees over real temperature if the watch was not covered by long sleeve. It is not perfect, of course, but a was very close according to my observations.

Just to keep my promise of informing you the Garmin HRM Pro connected flawlessly to the s9b and the HR was spot on. I even had my fitness (vo2) jump 4 units

@dimitrios-kanellopoulos ok I see, would be nice however if charging patterns would be analysed as well, since I rarely have non full charging cycles.

@werner74 yes, it will be fixed in few weeks.
