Suunto 9 peaks bug

@aroo7 I am getting good tracks from using GPS only.

I’ve had a dropout which I put down to Galileo. But the rest of the time the accuracy has been stunning.

Same here, usually the accuracy with Galileo is perfect, but sometimes that are unexplained drops that the other systems do not have. Therefore I am back to using Beidou.

Thanks guys for letting me know

@isazi i also noticed my first GPS drop with S9P and Galileo after the update
Do you recommend Beidu also for Western Europe (France) ?

isazi

@chrisc92 there are issues with Galileo at the moment, I suggest to try Beidou and see how it works (I’m in the Netherlands).

@chrisc92 I’m having great results with Glosnass in Colorado (US)

@emanuele-truccolo do you have auto-laps enabled, right? When enabled the first field is always the auto-lap metric, this I am being told by Suunto.

Ramrod

Can you manually select which GPS service the watch uses?

DMytro

@ramrod yes, in the navigation settings, outside of an activity.

emanuele truccolo

@isazi No autolap

isazi

@emanuele-truccolo I will test and get back to you soon.

isazi

@emanuele-truccolo for me it works if I disable auto lap. Which field are you using for the first column?

emanuele truccolo

@isazi For example lap ascend. I don t use autolap, always the manual lap, however for disable autolap i must disable it on the option

isazi

@emanuele-truccolo yes you need to disable auto-lap in the sport options. That option is remembered so if you disable it it stays disabled.

emanuele truccolo

@isazi I know thisbut it doesn work

isazi

@emanuele-truccolo okay I tried with your firmware version and it does not work, it is already fixed in future firmware.

Ramrod

@dmytro said in Suunto 9 peaks bug:

@ramrod yes, in the navigation settings, outside of an activity.

Ta. Strange that it only offers certain combinations.

DMytro

@ramrod How so? Coros vertix 2 is the first watch to offer a simultanios connection with all sattelite types and doing so requires a lot of juice too.

The options offered are thought to be using either GPS as the main system and one other system as copilot, or just the GPS alone. Makes sense, right?

I think we can expect all 5 nav systems support in the future suunto watches as chips become more power efficient.

DMytro

@ramrod what would be could though is an extra settings ‘find best’. You’d wait a few minutes before the start of an activity whilst your watch would scan for the most satellites available and then use it for the activity.
