Ascent/descent completly wrong
-
@Ambro-Pac have you checked the altitude versus time/distance graph from both app?
-
@Mff73 the exact case is not in the FAQ, but with less altitude accumulated than expected, there is a chance, that one of the reasons for wrong altitude is still valid:
clogged baro holes.
If the sensor is not well connected to the ambient pressure, it will react slower.So I’d suggest to check the sensor holes
-
I’ve figured out that my Altitude is not showing correctly. When checking Altitude the data is static, it doesn’t show any change even I walk up and down on the hill. So I probably switched something off? I presume this is the problem showing false data?
-
@Ambro-Pac at least you are seeing something that has the same root cause like your activities with too little vert.
I am not aware there is something to switch off.
So I would try firstly: reboot the watch (in case something in reading the baro sensor got messed up)
Then secondly check the sensor holes, soak them with warm water and rinse them.(you can also try if the altitude changes if you dip the watch under water - this increases the pressure like descending a few 10 meters)

you could also try to go to the Alti & Baro settings and select Auto adjust altitude, this use GPS data to do a 3D fix.

I’ve preformed hard reset of the watch and now it’s working normally. Duuno why it happened in the first place and I hope it won’t repeat.
Thanks all for suggestions.
