Goodbye Suunto, hello Garmin

@brad_olwin said in Goodbye Suunto, hello Garmin:

@wakarimasen If you have magnets on your gear anywhere, that will cause the compass to need recalibrating

Just remembered I had my hotel room card in my waist pack, guessing that was likely the problem as it had a magnetic strip on the back

@miniforklift Not sure that will do it, never has for me.

@miniforklift SA does not support settings or routes sync with “old” watches like Ambit3/Traverse

@brad_olwin Just curious, is there a way to use the compass during and activity?

[markytarky]

@tyresej4 in navigation screen choose the bearing navigation and it will show the compass

[TyreseJ4]

@markytarky Lol but then you can’t use another navigation feature at the same time? Thanks for the tip.

[markytarky]

@tyresej4 right, you cannot have route navigation and the compass at the same time. Well you have a north indicator on route, so you can make a calculation

[TyreseJ4]

@markytarky Well at least you can use 1 Suunto plus feature and 1 navigation feature at the same time.
