robert Posted June 24, 2004 Share Posted June 24, 2004 I just got an X6hr yesterday. I am going to take it out this weekend. Any tips on getting the best accuracy? I have it on my wrist at work right now and the temp is way off. I carried my old Avocet on my sternum strap. Is that a good idea for the Suunto too?

Â for accurate temps, yes... sternum strap or wear it as a medallion. Suunto makes a handy neck strap with a 'break away' link that I like.

robert Posted June 24, 2004 Share Posted June 24, 2004 Have you noticed any corelation between temp and pressure? The Avocet said that having the sensor touching your body raised the temp and as a result lowered the pressure. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thinker Posted June 24, 2004 Share Posted June 24, 2004 I haven't noticed it on my Suunto, but I haven't really looked for it either. I believe I read that the internal algorithms compensate for temperature changes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
