Suunto HR belt stops and starts
-
Hi. I use the Suunto 9 Peak Pro with HR belt since July. A 2 weeks ago I’ve noticed the belt wasn’t showing heart rate during my running. The value of hr showed and disappeared randomly. I thought the battery has finished, so I bought a new one and replaced. But the problem didn’t go.
Today I’ve done some tests. The belt has a resistance about 1,15 kOhm. So it looks pretty fine. I started an exercise in my watch and I was observing the hr value. I’ve noticed the sensor was measuring correctly hr by 55 seconds and then there was stop with a gap for 53 second. After that hr value appeared and the sensor measured hr for the next 55 seconds and it’s gone again for 53 second. It has happened a 17 times during 32 minutes long activity.
It looks like the sensor works for about a minute then some error occurs and the unit has been reseted. Then it starts, works for a minute and the error makes reset again. The loop repeats with no end.
Does somebody know what may happens?
You may see on the screen the flat fragments of the plot. Its means
the places when unit is resetting.
