To run the Sirius Weather application you will
need to purchase an SR100 weather receiver
and a subscription to Sirius weather.
Once connected, the weather application
superimposes historical, current and forecasted
weather graphics and environmental
conditions on the world map and provides
textual forecasts and warnings. These help you
to determine the actual conditions in your
vicinity or at a particular location.
As in the chart application, use the cursor to
move around the map and view different
locations, and the range button to zoom in and
out.
To re-center the map on your boat use the FIND
SHIP soft key.
