"Pair new device" is missing in the menu

Niels-Søren Bøgh

The manual an specs says for Suunto Nautic:

" Pairing heart rate sensor

You can pair your Suunto Nautic device with a heart rate belt to track your heart rate during diving.

To pair a heart rate belt:

Go to Control panel > Connectivity.
Select Pair new device.

Select the sensor from list."

But, the “Pair new device” is not in the menu in the Nautic - so, the Suunto Smart Heart Rate Belt cannot be connected.

** Real time Heart Rate is absolutely a nice new feature in the Nautic… and from this the Calories, Max, Min and Avg Heart Rate.
Heart Rate is directly linked to optimize air consumption and there for an important info on the screen.

It is also missing on my nautic.
No way to connect a heart rate monitor.

You can connect a pod, via the gasses menu.

Same here.

How come there is so little interest about that missing (advertised) feature? And no reply from Suunto?

Just got my new Nautic and this issue was the first problem. I wrote to the Suunto Chat and got below instructions. Haven’t had time to check yet if they are functioning or not. But really strange that device doesn’t match the manual. As there really isn’t a pair a new device.

From Suunto Chat:
Pairing a heart rate sensor with Suunto Nautic (manual)
Go to control panel
Press the middle button to open the menu
Log in to control panel
Open connection
Select connection
Select Pair new device
Select Pair new device
Select heart rate belt
The watch will show the available sensor types
Select heart rate belt
Activate sensor
Use belt or apply electrodes
Hold it close to the watch
Select sensor when it appears
Select it from the list
Confirm pairing
Wait for confirmation: Pairing successfulImportant note about manual logic
Sensor must be active and transmitting
Pairing must be done before starting a dive
Only one hour of belt can be actively paired at a time
Key point (important for your case)

If “Pair new device” is not visible, then according to manual expectation:

The watch is not in the correct Connectivity level/menu state
Or firmware version/user interface does not match the documented appearance
