Software update 2.12.30 Staged Release for S3/S5/S9

[Jugger]

@Dimitrios-Kanellopoulos Yes factory reset was all I need. No need to get new watch. Thanks for your help.

Fun fact: S+ Weather shows water temperature, when immersed in water in will show popup with temperature.

@Dimitrios-Kanellopoulos
Is the update already out for everyone ?

[Dimitrios Kanellopoulos]

@sartoric yes

[sartoric]

@Dimitrios-Kanellopoulos
Ok.
A friend of mine had the notification in the app, but suuntolink did not update the S9
But I just got a message, that he got it this morning.

Upgrade suuntolink

[NikosX]

@Dimitrios-Kanellopoulos hmm, Im still getting the following msg, while suuntolink is on 3.1.4 version. Should I wait a little bit more or is it possible to get the firmware file here and update to 2.12.30 manually? (I am S9 not S9B)

[Dimitrios Kanellopoulos]

@NikosX perhaps restart suunto link or reinstall. The update is out for all. Or some firewall?

[NikosX]

@Dimitrios-Kanellopoulos Hello, firewall disabled but no luck, so I used a vpn and I finally got the update. Its strange as Suuntolink it is updated without issue. Most likely something with my network. Thanks for the help.

[Dimitrios Kanellopoulos]

@NikosX Roger that. Good morning

In climb S+ mode there’s grade in %. How can I make any sense of it? How does it relate to degrees?

[isazi]

@Łukasz-Szmigiel in general 45 degrees should be 100%. You can check on the internet how to use distance and angle to compute it.

[Dimitrios Kanellopoulos]

@Łukasz-Szmigiel inclination

0 is flat up to 100 which is 90degrees if not mistaken

However the way to interpret it is this for me.

Grade: If you climb 100m in 1km it’s 10% grade

VS: If you are climbing with a vertical speed of 10meters per minute you will gain 100 meters up in 10 minutes. In a 10% grade you will also have covered one km.

[Łukasz Szmigiel]

@isazi that’s what I’ve also found but wasn’t sure if it’s the same in Suunto.

@Dimitrios-Kanellopoulos, thanks, this makes sense.

Also, how often is this data smoothed in case of S5 which doesn’t use baro for elevation?

[Egika]

@Dimitrios-Kanellopoulos isazi is corect .
100% equals 45°
(in your example 1km vertical over 1km horizontal)

[Dimitrios Kanellopoulos]

@Egika oups

BTW - either there is a bug in the application (it should be m/h, not m/min) or it’s time to go to the Himalayas and break some world records;)

[Dimitrios Kanellopoulos]

@kabzior got a link for me ?

[isazi]

Yesterday I finally tried the loop S+ function on the track. Pretty good results, the laps triggered in the space for 1-2 meters of where I started my track session. Will use it again

[Łukasz Szmigiel]

@isazi yeah, can confirm the precision is amazing. Even with tree cover, it works surprisingly accurate.
