WEATHER FUNCTION
Tap the
soft key on the Aviation Main Menu page to enter
the weather page.
CAUTION
Datalink weather information is to be used as a strategic
planning tool for pilot decisions on avoiding inclement
weather areas that are beyond visual range or where poor
visibility precludes visual acquisition of inclement weather.
Datalink weather information may be used as follows:
•
To aid the pilot in situational awareness of hazardous
meteorological conditions.
•
As a cue to the pilot to communicate with the ATC
controller or AFSS specialist to get further
information about the current meteorological
conditions. In no case should the pilot take any
evasive action based solely upon the datalink
weather display.
The datalink weather information is intended for assistance in
strategic flight planning purposes only and lacks sufficient
resolution and updating necessary for tactical maneuvering.
Hardware Accessory
The AV8OR ACE unit will work with either the WxWorx REWX91D
XM receiver or the certified KDR 610 XM receiver. See the Device
Setup Page on page 2-199 for more information on how to configure
the XM weather receiver.
The XM Weather receiver is used to receive the weather information
which is then displayed on the screen.
NOTE:
In order to use this feature, the user must purchase and
activate a subscription from XM Satellite Radio (XM).
Receiving Weather Data

receiver through the Bluetooth interface or either of the XM receivers
