8 NAVIGATION
8.1 Using GPS
Suunto Ambit2 uses Global Positioning System (GPS) in determining your
current position. GPS incorporates a set of satellites that orbit the Earth at an
altitude of 20,000 km at the speed of 4 km/s.
The built-in GPS receiver in Suunto Ambit2 is optimized for wrist use and
receives data from a very wide angle.
8.1.1 Getting GPS signal
Suunto Ambit2 activates GPS automatically when you select a sport mode with
the GPS functionality, determine your location, or start navigating.
28
NOTE: When you activate GPS for the first time, or have not used it for a long
time, it might take longer than usual to get a GPS fix. Subsequent GPS starts will
take less time.
TIP: To minimize GPS initiation time, hold the device steady with GPS facing
up and make sure you are in an open area so that the device has a clear view of
the sky.
Troubleshooting: No GPS signal
●
For an optimal signal, point the GPS part of the device upwards. The best
signal can be received in an open area with a clear view of the sky.
●
The GPS receiver usually works well inside tents and other thin covers.
However, objects, buildings, dense vegetation or cloudy weather can reduce
the GPS signal reception quality.
●
GPS signal does not penetrate any solid constructions or water. Therefore
do not try to activate GPS for example inside buildings, caves, or under
water.
●
To recover from GPS failures, reset GPS (see Section 14.1 Service
menu on page 110).
8.1.2 GPS grids and position formats
Grids are lines on a map that define the coordinate system used on the map.
Position format is the way the GPS receiver's position is displayed on the device.
All the formats relate to the same location, they only express it in a different
way. For information on changing the position format, see Chapter 14 Adjusting
settings on page 106.
29
en
You can select the format from the following grids:
●
latitude/longitude is the most commonly used grid and has three different
formats:
○
WGS84 Hd.d°
○
WGS84 Hd°m.m'
○
WGS84 Hd°m's.s
●
UTM (Universal Transverse Mercator) gives a two-dimensional horizontal
position presentation.
●
MGRS (Military Grid Reference System) is an extension of UTM and consists
of a grid zone designator, 100,000-meter square identifier and a numerical
location.
Suunto Ambit2 also supports the following local grids:
●
British (BNG)
●
Finnish (ETRS-TM35FIN)
●
Finnish (KKJ)
●
Irish (IG)
●
Swedish (RT90)
●
Swiss (CH1903)
●
UTM NAD27 Alaska
●
UTM NAD27 Conus
●
UTM NAD83
NOTE: Some grids cannot be used in the areas north of 84°N and south of 80°S,
or outside the countries that they are intended for.
30
8.1.3 GPS accuracy and power saving
When customizing sport modes, you can define the GPS fix interval using the
GPS accuracy setting in Movescount. The shorter the interval, the better the
accuracy during exercise.
By increasing the interval and lowering the accuracy, you can extend the battery
life.
The GPS accuracy options are:
●
Best: ~ 1 sec fix interval, highest power consumption
●
Good: ~ 5 sec fix interval, moderate power consumption
●
OK: ~ 60 sec fix interval, lowest power consumption

9 USING ALTI & BARO MODE
In ALTI & BARO mode you can view the current altitude or barometric pressure.
It offers three profiles: Automatic, Barometer and Altimeter. For information
on setting profiles, see Section 9.2.1 Setting profiles on page 54.
You can access different views depending on which profile is activated when
you are in ALTI & BARO mode.
Sunrise and sunset time views are available when GPS has been activated. If
GPS is not active, sunrise and sunset times are based on the last recorded GPS
data.
9.1 How Alti & Baro works
To get correct readings with ALTI & BARO mode, it is important to understand
how Suunto Ambit2 calculates altitude and sea level air pressure. Suunto
Ambit2 constantly measures absolute air pressure. Based on this measurement
and reference values, it calculates altitude or sea level air pressure.
CAUTION: Keep the area around the sensor free of dirt and sand. Never insert
any objects into the sensor openings.
51
en
9.1.1 Getting correct readings
If you are engaged in an outdoor activity that requires accurate sea level air
pressure or altitude, you will first need to calibrate your Suunto Ambit2 by
entering either your current altitude or the current sea level air pressure.
The altitude of your location can be found from most topographic maps or
Google Earth. A sea level air pressure reference for your location can be found
using the websites of national weather services.
If FusedAlti
TM
is activated, the altitude reading will be corrected automatically
using FusedAlti together with altitude and sea level pressure calibration. For
more information, see Section 9.6 FusedAlti
TM
on page 60.
Absolute air pressure is measured constantly
Absolute air pressure and known altitude reference = Sea level air pressure
Absolute air pressure and known sea level air pressure = Altitude
Changes in local weather conditions will affect altitude readings. If local weather
changes often, it is advisable to reset the current altitude reference value
52
frequently, preferably before starting your journey when the reference values
are available. As long as the local weather stays stable, you do not need to set
reference values.
9.1.2 Getting incorrect readings
ALTIMETER profile + standing still + weather change
If your Altimeter profile is on for an extended period of time with the device
in a fixed location while the local weather changes, the device will give incorrect
altitude readings.
ALTIMETER profile + altitude moving + weather change
If your Altimeter profile is on and the weather changes frequently while you
climb in altitude or go down in altitude, the device will give you incorrect
readings.
BAROMETER profile + altitude moving
If the Barometer profile is on for an extended period of time as you climb in
altitude or go down in altitude, the device assumes that you are standing still
and interprets your changes in altitude as changes in sea level air pressure. It
will therefore give you incorrect sea level air pressure readings.
Use example: Setting the altitude reference value
You’re on the second day of your two-day hike. You realize that you forgot to
switch from the Barometer profile to the Altimeter profile when you started
moving in the morning.You know that the current altitude readings given by
your Suunto Ambit2 are wrong. So, you hike to the nearest location shown on
53
en
your topographic map for which an altitude reference value is provided. You
correct your Suunto Ambit2 altitude reference value accordingly and switch
from Barometer to Altimeter profile. Your altitude readings are correct again.
9.2 Matching profile to activity
The Altimeter profile should be selected when your outdoor activity involves
changes in altitude (e.g. hiking in hilly terrain).
The Barometer profile should be selected when your outdoor activity does
not involve changes in altitude (e.g. soccer, sailing, canoeing).
To get correct readings, you need to match the profile to your activity. You can
either let Suunto Ambit2 decide a suitable profile for the activity, or choose a
profile yourself.
NOTE: You can define the profile as part of the sport mode settings in
Movescount, or in your Suunto Ambit2.
9.2.1 Setting profiles

based on FusedAlti. For more information, see Section 9.6
FusedAlti
TM
on page 60.
●
Manual altitude: Set your altitude manually.
●
Sea level pressure: Set the sea level pressure reference value manually.
5. Set the reference value using [Start Stop] and [Light Lock]. Accept the setting
with [Next].
55
en
TIP: You can access the Reference setting by keeping [View] pressed when in
ALTI & BARO mode.
You can also set your altitude during your exercise, see Section 12.6.4 Setting
altitude during exercise on page 82.
9.3 Using Altimeter profile
The Altimeter profile calculates altitude based on reference values. The
reference value can either be sea level air pressure value or altitude reference
value. When the Altimeter profile is activated, the altimeter icon is shown on
56
the display. For information on setting the profile, see Section 9.2.1 Setting
profiles on page 54.
When the Altimeter profile is activated, you can access the following views:
●
top row: your current altitude
●
middle row: altitude information on a 12-hour timeline in graph form
●
bottom row: toggle between time and temperature with [View]
NOTE: If you are wearing your Suunto Ambit2 on your wrist, you will need to
take it off in order to get an accurate temperature reading because your body
temperature will affect the initial reading.
9.4 Using Barometer profile
The Barometer profile shows the current sea level air pressure. This is based
on the reference values added in the settings and the constantly measured
absolute air pressure. For information on setting the reference values, see
Section 9.2.2 Setting reference values on page 55.
Changes in the sea level air pressure are presented graphically in the middle
row of the display. The display shows the recording of the last 27 hours with
a recording interval of 1 hour.
57
en
When the Barometer profile is activated, the barometer icon is shown on the
display. For information on setting the ALTI & BARO profile, see Section 9.2.1
Setting profiles on page 54.
When the Barometer profile is activated, Suunto Ambit2 shows you the
following barometric information:
●
top row: the current sea level air pressure
●
middle row: a graph displaying sea level pressure data from the past 27
hours (1h recording interval)
●
bottom row: toggle between temperature, time and altitude reference
value with [View]
Altitude reference is the latest altitude used in ALTI & BARO mode. It can be:
●
the altitude you have set as altitude reference in the Barometer profile, or
●
the latest altitude logged in the Automatic profile before changing to the
Barometer profile.
NOTE: If you are wearing your Suunto Ambit2 on your wrist, you will need to
take it off in order to get an accurate temperature reading because your body
temperature will affect the initial reading.
58
9.5 Using Automatic profile
The Automatic profile switches between the Altimeter and Barometer profiles
according to your movements. When the Automatic profile is active, the device
will automatically switch between interpreting changes in air pressure as
changes in altitude or changes in weather.
It is not possible to measure weather and altitude changes at the same time,
as both cause a change in the surrounding air pressure. Suunto Ambit2 senses
vertical movement and switches to measuring altitude, when needed. When
altitude is shown, it is updated with a maximum delay of 10 seconds.
If you are at a constant altitude (less than 5 meters of vertical movement within
12 minutes), Suunto Ambit2 interprets all pressure changes as weather changes.
The measurement interval is 10 seconds. The altitude reading remains steady
and if the weather changes, you will see changes in the sea level air pressure
reading.
If you are moving in altitude (more than 5 meters of vertical movement within
3 minutes), Suunto Ambit2 interprets all pressure changes as movements in
altitude.
Depending on which profile is active, you can access the Altimeter or
Barometer profile views with [View].
59
en
NOTE: When you are using the Automatic profile, barometer or altimeter
icons are not shown on the display.
9.6 FusedAlti
TM
FusedAlti
TM
provides an altitude reading that is a combination of GPS and
barometric altitude. It minimizes the effect of temporary and offset errors in
the final altitude reading.
NOTE: By default, altitude is measured with FusedAlti during exercises that
use GPS and during navigation. When GPS is switched off, altitude is measured
with the barometric sensor.
If you do not want to use FusedAlti in altitude measurement, you can disable
it in the options menu.

the altitude reading to indicate that the altitude may not be correct.
62
10 USING 3D COMPASS
Suunto Ambit2 has a 3D compass that allows you to orient yourself in relation
to magnetic north. The tilt-compensated compass gives you accurate readings
even if the compass is not horizontally level.
COMPASS mode includes the following information:
●
middle row: compass heading in degrees
●
bottom row: toggle between the current heading in cardinal (N, S, W, E) and
half-cardinal (NE, NW, SE, SW) points, time and empty view with [View]
The compass will switch itself to power saving mode after one minute.
Reactivate it with [Start Stop].
For information on using compass during exercise, see Section 12.6.5 Using
compass during exercise on page 82.
10.1 Calibrating compass
COMPASS mode asks you to calibrate the compass before you start using it. If
you have already calibrated the compass and want to re-calibrate it, you can
access the calibration option in the options menu.
63
en
NOTE: Calibrating the 3D compass requires two actions, horizontal rotation
and vertical tilt. Be sure to read all the instructions before starting the calibration.
To access the compass calibration:
1. Keep [Next] pressed to enter the options menu.

text Calibration successful is displayed.
If the calibration does not succeed, the text Calibration failed is displayed.
To retry the calibration, press [Start Stop].
64
10.2 Setting declination value
To ensure correct compass readings, set an accurate declination value.
Paper maps point to true north. Compasses, however, point to magnetic north
– a region above the Earth where the Earth’s magnetic fields pull. Because
magnetic North and true North are not at the same location, you must set the
declination on your compass. The angle in between magnetic and true north
is your declination.
The declination value appears on most maps. The location of magnetic north
changes yearly, so the most accurate and up-to-date declination value can be
obtained from the internet (for example www.magnetic-declination.com).
Orienteering maps, however, are drawn in relation to magnetic north. This
means that when you are using orienteering maps you need to turn the
declination correction off by setting the declination value to 0 degrees.
To set the declination value:
1. Keep [Next] pressed to enter the options menu.
2. Press [Next] to enter GENERAL.
3. Scroll to Compass using [Light Lock] and select with [Next].
4. Scroll to Declination with [Light Lock] and select with [Next].

13 FUSEDSPEED
FusedSpeed
TM
is a unique combination of GPS and wrist acceleration sensor
readings for measuring your running speed more accurately. GPS signal is
adaptively filtered based on wrist acceleration, giving more accurate readings
at steady running speeds and a quicker response to changes in speed.
FusedSpeed
TM
will benefit you the most when you need highly reactive speed
readings during training, for example, when running on uneven terrain or
during interval training. If you temporarily lose GPS signal, for example, because
buildings block the signal, Suunto Ambit2 is able to continue showing accurate
speed readings with the help of the GPS calibrated accelometer.
103
en
NOTE: FusedSpeed
TM
is meant for running and other similar type of activities.
TIP: To get the most accurate readings with FusedSpeed
TM
, only glance shortly
at the device when needed. Holding the device in front of you without moving it
reduces the accuracy.
FusedSpeed
TM
is activated automatically with the following sport modes:
●
trail running
●
triathlon
●
running
●
soccer
●
orienteering
●
multisport
104
●
floorball
●
football
The other sport modes use the basic GPS speed data.
Use example: Running and biking with FusedSpeed
TM
When you change from running to biking, FusedSpeed
TM
notices that the wrist
acceleration is not giving valid speed readings. The device automatically
deactivates FusedSpeed
TM
and provides purely GPS-based speed data for
biking. When you change to running after biking, FusedSpeed
TM
will be
automatically activated.
NOTE: FusedSpeed
TM
only works properly when using the same sport mode
when switching between the activities.

18.1 Water resistance
Suunto Ambit2 is water resistant to 100 meters/330 feet/10 bars. The meter
value relates to an actual diving depth and is tested in the water pressure used
in the course of the Suunto water resistance test. This means you can use the
125
en
watch for swimming and snorkeling, but it should not be used for any form of
diving.
NOTE: Water resistance is not equivalent to functional operating depth. The
water resistance marking refers to static air/water tightness withstanding shower,
bathing, swimming, poolside diving and snorkeling.
To maintain water resistance, it is recommended to:
●
never use the device for other than intended use.
●
contact an authorized Suunto service, distributor or retailer for any repairs.
●
keep the device clean from dirt and sand.
●
never attempt to open the case yourself.
●
avoid subjecting the device to rapid air and water temperature changes.
●
always clean your device with fresh water if subjected to salt water.
●
never knock or drop the device.
18.2 Charging the battery
The battery duration on a single charge depends on how Suunto Ambit2 is
used. The duration ranges from 15 to 50 hours or more. With basic watch
functionality this can be up to 30 days. For more information on battery life,
see Chapter 19 Technical specification on page 129.
NOTE: Low temperatures reduce the duration of a single charge.
NOTE: The capacity of rechargeable batteries decreases over time.
126
NOTE: In case of abnormal capacity decrease due to defective battery, Suunto
warranty covers the battery replacement for 1 year or for at maximum 300 charging
times, whichever comes first.
TIP: If the device is taking GPS fix each second, the charge lasts at least ~15
hours. If the device is taking GPS fix only every 60 seconds, the duration of the
charge is ~50 hours.
The battery icon indicates the charge level of the battery. When the battery
charge level is less than 10 %, the battery icon blinks for 30 seconds. When the
battery charge level is less than 2 %, the battery icon blinks continuously.
Charge the battery by attaching it to your computer with the Suunto USB cable,
or charge with the USB-compatible Suunto wall charger. It takes approximately
2-3 hours to fully charge an empty battery.
TIP: Go to Movescount to change the GPS fix and recording rate of a sport
mode to save battery life.
