  1. Hi all,

    today I was using an HAC4 I got not much time ago.
    I started the recording pressing the two left buttons. The "mountains"
    started blinking, everything ok.

    After about one hour of riding, I heard a short beep. I didn't pay much
    attention as I thought it was some "1 hour" signal.
    I'm pretty sure I had not pressed any button.

    When I got home, I pressed the two left buttons to stop recording, but
    to my surprise the unit *started* recording, i.e. it was already stopped.
    So I downloaded the data on the pc and I noticed that the record
    actually stopped after about one hour, probably when I heard the
    aforementioned beep.

    Now why did this happen? Do someone with more experience with the HAC4
    knows the answer?

    (Very annoying as I lost even the basic details (distance, time, average))

    Thanks,

    Francesco

  2. Check the memory. It sounds like you failed (or forgot) to delete
    previous files.

    On the HAC-4, it does a "rolling" deletion of older files. It will always
    keep only the last 64 hours of ride info; there's no way to force it to not
    drop off the older ones (in other words, no way to keep something in the
    unit; you have to download it to your computer if you want to have access to
    the info down the road).

    This happened to me once in a little over one year. I also
    remember hearing the beep. Interestingly, it was on the first
    ride after I changed all four batteries. It hadn't happened
    before, and hasn't happened since.
