Surprisingly quiet about this issue. Why? What’s the reason of this issue? Watch out aunty app?

@dreamer_ i would like to know myself Sorry, have no notes on this one…

@soryp I confirm I did it twice following your instructions… That’s why it is so strange !

GPS accuracy may be severely degraded by the rock face blocking the ‘view’ of half of the sky, therefore incline calculation may give random results.

@Gilles-D. said: how to revert to previous FW with watch V1? Settings > General > About scroll all the way down to the end hold Down button to enter Debug menu Select OTA pkg

@Matúš I just thought that perhaps the intermittent contact with the skin could cause the sensor to go haywire, causing the monitoring to block… but I’m not sure that’s a valid hypothesis…

@Egika For me that lives in flatlands by the sea - that looks like a significant difference What looks a bit strange that it started at 50m, while looks like that actual altitude is sea-level, shouldn’t that be fixed with FusedAlti during the activity?

@Maxime-Bouvier io ho lo stesso problema e ho già postato un’uscita con Garmin coros e Suunto. Secondo me è un problema firmware perché per il primo anno è andato benissimo. Ora da circa due mesi ha problemi.

@althaea35 thanks, I made it to help me avoid pushing too hard on my runs. My migraine doesn’t like too high effort and hr. Glad to see it’s useful for others!

@VoiGAS yeah, that is a thing of the past, sadly. You could see this tag there a year or so ago…

Did I answer this already on reddit? The intervals.icu workout gives you a target. The buzzing occurs as you enter and exit the target zone and as you hit the target precisely…

Same problem here, Suunto Smart Sensor connected to a Race 2. Worked flawlessly for seven months until last Sunday when suddenly the sensor connection dropped after starting the run. First idea was of course the battery, inserted a new one, problem remained. Chest strap is always washed after training, bought a new one anyway, problem remained. I measured the resistance of the brand new strap and the older one; new one has approx. 1.38 kOhms (2x700 ohms), older one has 2.85 kOhms (2x1.43 kOhms), but up to now I heard that the straps should be good if they are below 8-10 kOhms. Warm reset of the watch did not help, re-pairing the sensor did not help as well. I have no idea why that happens; the last firmware update of the Race 2 was beginning of April, and the watch performed without any hiccup afterwards. I did a factory reset last night, will try again this evening whether that helped. Also bought a Polar H10 as backup solution… so that sensor problem cost me more than 100 EUR up to now (btw, 39 EUR for a replacement strap is much more expensive than Polar, they sell replacement straps for 25 EUR). Suunto wants to sell the Race 2 as a training device for runners - training without a reliable HR detection is no option, though. I do not want to use OHR as well, it’s usually quite a few beats off if I am not just sitting at a desk. Any other ideas except for “the suunto smart sensor is not exactly a piece of reliable engineering, actually is quite crap”?

@galerna done ! Check out the store

I don’t know how it works on an ocean, but on my race s the direction is auto detected. If the route has tbt alerts, those are applied either way the direction I walk/run/bike the route. If I have reached the destination, the route is still available. No need to go into menu’s the choose a direction, just start. On my 2 previous garmins, this worked different. I had to choose in advance which way to go (and on a round trip it wasn’t easy to see on the map which way to start) If you followed a route the other way around without setting it in the settings you had a course error warning on your screen, all the time. When you selected the route to be followed in opposite direction you would loose tbt alerts. And if you reached destination, the route disappeared from your screen. Way to many times when I wanted to follow a round trip, the stupid watch concluded I reached my destination before I even stared and the watch ended navigation. So you have to go into settings and select the route again. I understand your wish to follow a route in opposite direction, but don’t envy garmin users. Envy suunto users with a running sport watch.

@BokiRun You can check if the issue is the strap: https://forum.suunto.com/post/177308 Update: My third polar strap is dead after two years (two sessions/week). The polar strap quality has deteriorated in recent years. This is my impression but also from people giving their opinions on sales websites.

@surfboomerang looks similar

To add to @sergiob You need to make sure that you’ve enabled Turn-by-Turn navigation in the app at the respective route (same screen where you mark to use the route on your watch)!

@RunWarden ok Thanks for the info. Done a few days ago and in the store today. Great !
