Direct drive indoor trainer
-
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.
-
Not sure if it helps…Suunto Bike Sensor With Turbo Trainer
-
@aroo7 Thanks for your feedback, at least we are two guys that waiting this correction looking forward.
In my case this is a Wahoo core trainer.
The last answer from Suunto support (from 4 August 2021):
“Our software departement received some comments related to this issue.
At the moment this is under evaluation to introduce this correction for these trainer type, but this is a long projet to do, so no date for a first release.”Find original (in French, sorry):
Thanks
-
@wakarimasen Thank you for this link. This is quite the same issue/way as this topic.
-
@dwartus Thanks for the message! We have to wait but it doesn’t look good, shame
-
Hello,
Does somebody can test the release software 2.18.20 for the correction discussed in this topic ?The winter is coming and I’m still hesitating between buy S9 or definitely a garmin GPS to connect the smart driver…
For sure, I prefer to keep the Suunto brand !Than you
Regards -
@aroo7 : Hello, are you able to test the firmware release 2.18.20 with your Elite trainer, to check if any changes appears ?
Meantime, I bought another GPS, currently under evaluation
-
@dwartus nothing has changed, the situation is the same as before the update
