Zonesense readings
-
@MKPotts Here’s a plot from one of the few times I got ZoneSense to do anything. It doesn’t look anything like the plot you put up - but I know next to nothing about this subject.
-
@Ian-Beveridge I have a Race S with me and will test but I am having no issues with ZS graphs in the app from Suunto Run, Vertical 2 and Race 2. So, I seriously doubt this is a watch firmware issue. I use ZS a lot.

That data is ok - looking at it I’d assume you got ZoneSense data throughout that run - though anomalies at 0.8% is getting high. If you have data for a run where ZoneSense worked initially then froze, you will probably see the r-r data scatter where the ZS cuts out.Turning off the ZoneSense app makes no difference to whether your watch receives r-r data from the H10 and records it in the fit file. The data is sent with the HR value and has been recorded in the file long before ZS arrived. I’m not aware that it’s possible for the H10 to send only HR and not r-r values.
I can’t speak for anyone else but I’m certainly not ignoring the discrepancies between your watch and the app, nor the dropouts in ZS. I’m saying that your pattern of data and problems are fully consistent with a failing belt and are exactly as I’ve experienced with the H10 and Suunto belt. My H10 first showed problems when it was about 6wks old.
I have no connection to Suunto, it doesn’t matter to me if the problem is your watch or the belt. I’ve simply been trying to help you fix the problem. But you already seem certain that your belt is fine and your watch isn’t, so I can’t add anything else.

@Brad_Olwin Where did I say that I was having problems with ZS graphs??? Nowhere!
I have shown you a photograph of my watch Logbook HR graph along with a screengrab of my Phone App synced data. They are different but they are supposed to be the same. This is an error of the firmware 100%.Just explain then how those graphs are allowed to be different. ZS was deactivated during this particular run
-
@Ian-Beveridge the explanation is quite simple, there are two different filters used, one in realtime to show the user the HR valies from the received R-R stream, and one used a posteriori in the app. Very noisy data produces what you show, nothing new.

@MKPotts
I am not getting HRV data from the fit file when ZS is deactivated.
I have not had any dropouts of ZS data when it was working. The real time counter was jamming but data for the complete workout was still stored unaffected and synced to the phone app at the end. This “jamming” error was corrected in the latest watch firmware update.
Frequently (in running only) I get real time ZS but after the workout no trace of it is synced with the phone app - it’s just vanished.I have said about a dozen times there is a graphics problem on the watch which nobody can explain. It’s the HR data not the ZS data. It’s cast iron proof there’s a firmware issue.
-
@isazi That’s not what’s happening! When I observe the watch every 200 metres in real time it gives the same data (here averaging 180 bpm) as is later seen in the phone app. However after the run there is a wrong graph showing in the watch logbook.
-
@Ian-Beveridge ZoneSense data isn’t transferred from the watch to the app. There is some calculation done on the watch, that you can see on the watch, and different calculations are done in the app, that is presented to you within the app.

@Ian-Beveridge and this is always with the same sensor?

@2b2bff That might be the case but when I upload a run to Runalyze it shows no trace of HRV data when the ZS is deactivated on the watch. I’m always using a paired chest strap so it’s not the optical HR. To get a look at the HRV data on Runalyze I had to dig out a cycling workout where the ZS data was successfully logged.
-
@isazi Yes the same sensor - which gives correct real time feedback and ZS in real time and occasionally successfully stored and always an accurate phone app graph.
I never even paid attention to the watch Logbook graph before but was gobsmacked to see it is displaying junk. -
@Ian-Beveridge this is of one of my activities, definitely recorded without the ZoneSense App. HRV on the left…

@Ian-Beveridge maybe you mentioned it before, but what sensor are you using? Is the logbook corrupt just for one activity, or more?

@isazi It’s an H10+ Polar - only a couple of months old. It’s been extremely stable. The Logbook graphics seems corrupted for many workouts - I’ve not gone back through them all though - too many.
-
@2b2bff It could be just because Runalyze is new to me (as of yesterday). If so I’ll get back to you and let you know.

@Ian-Beveridge
I’ve already explained that turning the ZoneSense app on or off in the watch has absolutely no effect on:
i) the data the H10 sends to the watch (which includes r-r data)
ii) the data the watch receives from the H10 and records in the fit file
iii) the calculation of ZoneSense data in the appIf there is no r-r data in the fit file, then either:
- the source of the data displayed on the watch and recorded in the file is not the H10.
- you have found a problem with your watch where - at random, because you’ve had r-r data before - it doesn’t record the r-r data it receives.

@MKPotts @2b2bff
Yes I was just having trouble finding the right display with Runalyze - there is HRV data there even with the ZS deactivated. Unfortunately it goes wild after 10 minutes into the run - doesn’t affect the HR readings at all but certainly something going wrong with HRV. I’ll upload a few more workouts and see what they are doing.
-
@Ian-Beveridge I uploaded a cycling workout where ZS was recorded - the only problem during the ride was the ZS counter freezing with real time display - but both ZS thresholds were measured. There is no logbook graph for this - seems it’s shown only for the most recent workouts.
Obviously the cycling is much smoother than when running with a high cadence so what I can do is try different ways of securing the chest strap - and check the results out with Runalyze.Running slower gets me a full result with ZS - so it’s not the chest strap that’s faulty - it’s perhaps just not secure enough for when things get a bit bouncy. Even if I can’t get it perfect for HRV the HR readings from the H10+ are great and I can live with that.
-
@Ian-Beveridge I ran with my Race S today and a Suunto SmartSensor. No issues with HR or ZoneSense with firmware 2.47.12 on the watch. My zones were not set right as I have not used this watch in some time.
-
@Brad_Olwin may I ask if ZoneSense gave you detected values for both thresholds on that run and what the values are?
