Alarm points

You can use the alarm points, for example, to warn you about rocks and other hazards. You can set 10 alarm points in the MyPoints function and also 10 for each route. The alarm points for MyPoints are always active when the GPS is on. The alarm points for each route are active when you navigate on the selected route.

When you enter the within the defined radius from the alarm point, for example 0.10 km, the alarm goes on. When the alarm is activated, Suunto X9 displays the name of the alarm point on the top row. The second row displays the text ‘WAYPOINT ALARM’. And the third row displays the distance to the alarm point. If you remain in the alarm zone, the alarm is repeated approximately every minute.

NOTE: When you navigate on a route, Suunto X9 does not navigate via the alarm

points. However, if you wish to navigate to an alarm point, select as the navigation method and choose the desired alarm point.
