Accelerometer fail? - Dr_Turb - 06-27-2024
Hi, noob here. I have a PineTime watch which I've had for about two weeks. I charged it on receipt and have been wearing ever since.
Initially I was able to set it so that it woke up the display on raising my wrist; however yesterday that stopped working. In the settings there is also an option to wake up with a single or double tap. Neither of these works. The watch can be woken by pressing the button, so it seems to be working OK otherwise - but does the refusal to be woken by a movement or a tap indicate that the accelerometer has failed?
Is accelerometer failure a known/likely occurence? I've seen it mentioned once on the board.
Or could there be another issue; maybe re-starting the watch would help? If so, can anyone suggest how to do that?
For background, this is a sealed device working with the KiActiv app on Android; so I only have access to the watch functions; KiActive should be receiving movement data for analysis offline.
