OHR bug

e6321

OHR occasionally seems to read a high value (bouncing around 120-130bpm). Only way I was able to stop it was to take watch off and on again multiple times.
The heart rate graph does not show this spike in HR.

Measured my actual HR manually to be 70 during this and after taking watch on and off it read correctly.

Running latest firmware.

@e6321 Same experience Here… Dont know a better Option to solve this Problem…

@e6321 how your OHR SENSOR looks in the Back? Pictures? Had this on my first Vertical, sent it Back, got new device, until that the OHR measurement is correct

@e6321 i run last update too.
I was around 185 for HR with pace around 4’50/km (on 1 km)
Then with pace lower than 4’00/km HR falled between 110 and 130… (still on 1km)
The faster i run the lower is the HR
Quite strange

@GiPFELKiND chest strap. I have Fênix 7 solar and the forerunner 955 ,they have a good accuracy with OHR and even with them I use chest strap. for those who care with HR, chest strap or arm strap is the way to go. I bought the Race,o did my research and everyone in any watch from Suunto have the same complain about OHR and I bought because I use every workout a chest strap. Don’t know how people with all the reviews in YouTube and web saying OHR don’t work properly during workouts and even ith that in mind buy the watch, hopping with them will be different. And because is not different come to forum complaining about something they know previously don’t work well and the only solution is choose another brand with better accuracy in OHR,If HR is important on your training or use a chest strap .

Chest straps are far from perfect as well. I use polar h10 and I can have many many times seen poor data from it which I have discussed in this forum before.

Actually I have some workouts where the optical hr on the vertical has produced better results on right wrist than h10 but not always.

@gone-troppo so try on a suunto watch a suunto smart belt

@gone-troppo well,I use HRM pro + and no issues with HR readings. I had previously a Polar H10,the thing is if the strap have to many usage,start to give some weird readings. From time to time I bought a new strap, about 30 euros and started to work great again. But in the last year i start using the HRM pro + and never had this kind of issue. Don’t know if is your case, but I’m only sharing my experience with chest strap from Polar and Garmin.

Hello mods or community managers.
Is there a better way we can manage bug tracking?
Currently most threads on some issue seems to decend into discussion on something else thats probably not related. Not to knock discussion it just seems it would be better to a have a simpler bug tracker.

Is it normal that the OHR sensor is blinking permanently with daily HR feature activated ? I thought that it was just on sometimes in the day to measure the heart rate during the day. It is currently see always the green light.

@Antoine yep!

@Antoine My sensors even blink during an activity and I have the HR disabled, not sure if this is meant to happen but from a battery perspective I’m sure it would be better if it didn’t

@MiniForklift same issue as S9PP
