S 9 baro New Treadmill profile

Durri

Why if I create a new workout - the treadmill flashes and search GPS? I disabled GPS in the options. I don’t know why it’s the GPS in menu of Treadmill?

@Durri
Try to search the forum. If I remember well it’s a bug but should be fixed

Durri

@sartoric ok, than you

Egika

But new firmware has just been released. If not fixed yet, when will this happen?

@Durri If you created a custom Treadmill profile in Movescount and disabled GPS there, I think Suunto 9 just ignores those additional sport settings. Instead you have to disable it on the watch in activity options before using the sport mode for the first time.

@silentvoyager Hi, my watch is 10 days old, it’s my first Suunto watch after Polar V800. I did not create Movescount because it says it will be end. I only have an app on my phone. Can I create Movescount account?

@Durri as a new Suunto user myself, I skipped movescount to avoid having my feet in two different shoes. You can create customized sport profiles with Suunto app too.

Durri

@isazi yes i did but in treadmill mode there is still navigation function that cannot be removed or interchanged…

I guess you can disable navigation screen in watch options for the sports mode. can’t you ?

Durri

@Mff73 I can even do it but it still searches for a GPS signal.

one point after another navigation screen is one of them for you

@Durri so for indoor climbing what I did wasn’t to create a new sport mode, but simply to disable GPS and navigation from the options of the “exercise” (all from the watch).

And with “exercise” I mean the already present climbing mode.

@isazi existing workout is fine there GPS is not turned on. I wanted to create an another exercise (Treadmill) for Stryd.

@Durri might not be the preferred - or even feasible- solution for you … but I simply added Stryd as FootPod to the existing Treadmill Profile.

Hm - if it works with the default sport modes it should do so with new ones as well.
The solution can’t be to just and only use the default modes - as there are good reasons to create customized modes!
Is the issue acknowleged with customized sport modes for everyone?

@Durri just to be sure, because after reading this thread I did not see anyone mention this - have you tried pressing/swiping down from the start exercise screen? There you will find additional options for the current sport mode - go to Power Savings and under GPS, select OFF. Then just navigate back to the start exercise screen and start your exercise. This should work for all sport modes, regardless if it’s a custom or default mode.

Durri

@Shrek3k Yes, that’s how it works.

Durri

@fejker Yes I tried it but the GPS is still again on (only I want to use custom mode of treadmill)

@Durri you can set the gps accuracy to off only for custom battery mode, but then you must also select it if you want the settings made by you to be used. So don’t navigate back but swipe up and pick select, later, as mentioned by @fejker , even changing the battery mode to perf., endur. or ultra, the gps will remain disabled.
