Question S6 update - new menus???

Hi Everyone,
My S6 had the good old reset problem and so I reutrned it to Suuto for repair.

When it came back it now has a couple of extre menu items, one of which I'm hoping someone can clarify for me.

In the "general" menu it now has an item called "Sensor". When I click into this group, it appears to be some sort of calibration menu. Does anyone what this does, and if there's anything I should configure here?

It also has another fairly self explainitory change, m/hour and ft/hour in the accepnt / decent section of the units menus - Nice.

Cheers

You can use the sensor function to calibrate your altimeter/barometer. If you notice a big discrepancy between your displayed altitude and the real altitude, you my want to make an aujustment. I would recommend you not do so until you are sure. It's nice though to have the option to make adjustments.

My 2003 green X6 has the new programming as well. No resets at all now.
