Direct drive indoor trainer

@Dwartus said in Direct drive indoor trainer:
Regarding the main topic, that the watch (A2 or Spartan or Suunto 9) doesn’t catch all signals comes from smart trainer (Power, speed and cadence), does someone of Suunto teams can give support here or maybe give timeline to solve it ??
Better contact Suunto directly for that. Have you asked support?
-
@isazi Yes, I’ve done two phone call and one email traffic -> no answer.
At the second phone call, Suunto support say me that “they never tested Wahoo and Tacx with Suunto”.
Sorry, but I don’t know really if they understand sometimes…Does someone here work in Suunto R&D departement or something like that ??
Thanks

I am aware of two Suunto developers (app and backend I guess) in the forum. Not sure if any firmware developer is here.
-
So I raised this issue.
I am not sure when this can be improved to be honest but now the R&D + PO teams are aware of this. Thank you
-
@Dimitrios-Kanellopoulos thank you for your help.
Do you know if Suunto confirm this trouble or will work on it ? or just they received claim ?As you know I’m in a way to buy a Suunto 9, but I would like to know if this issue will be solve or not before buy it… (I have other question task to be check as example disable the wrist HR definitevly to avoid battery consumption during day working, compatible H10/TickrX, …)
Thank you

You can disable 24h heart rate monitor, and H10/TickrX heart rate monitor are compatible, but if you are interested in more discussion about these topics search the forum or write a new post

@isazi Thank you, Yes it’s the idea to find correct topics about.
-
Hello,
I saw the Software update 2.13.18 released.
But it seems not to be concern the issue of this topic
Do you have an idea of the reason ??
Does this topic is really take into account ?Thanks
-
@Dwartus well it’s 17 days that passed.
That is not something much as of development time.
Also I didn’t say that they will do this feature. They just know that people want this.
-
@Dwartus I use trainer and I get your point about the Suunto getting all the signal, but sincerely I would prefer to support Zwift as a partner because all the indoor trainer I do is in zwift, but if I wouldn’t use Zwift I will need a better support of the trainer in my Suunto watch.
-
For me, this is not a new function, but rather a correction/improvement.
The Suunto are able to be connect at sensor (power, speed, …), and sensors of indoor trainer are not detected. But detected by others (Garmin, Polar, Zwift, …).
@Bulkan I also use Zwift to do my training session, but not sure to do it all the time due to other simulator and also the price. I can also use Wahoo platform for one or two session as example.
I send data (90% of my activities) directly in Strava platform.
But at end the real and full tracking is done by Suunto. -
Hello,
Is there a new software released since 2.13.18 ?
Do you know, if this topic is now correct if new software released ?
Thanks
-
@dwartus no new firmware for the watch yet.
-
Hello all,
I now seen the software release 2.16.26
Does somebody can tell me if this point is now solved / corrected ?
Thank you
-
@dwartus nope, works the same way as before.
-
@дима-мельниченко
OK, did you check with your trainer if you can connect the sensors (cadence, power and speed) ?
Thank you
-
@dwartus no, I’m drawing my conclusions from official changelog and general suunto treatment of pods connections. If one could have used multiple pods simultaniously - it definetely would have been mentioned.
But maybe someone who did try can suplement/correct my answer. -
@dwartus so, bottomline - 1 pod at a time atm.
-
Does somebody can test this correction (connect at same time RPM, speed and power sensor from a trainer) ??
Thank you
-
@dwartus Nothing has been fixed. In my case, the watch (S9P) connects to the trainer (Elite) only as a power pod. I must admit that it is very disappointing that Suunto has not solved this problem for so long.
