3. Starting and shutting down AnywhereXP Software
Please follow these instructions carefully. Because the Bluetooth devices (GPS and XM units)
may need special attention,
you MUST follow these instructions to start the software.
If you
do not, the system may not start properly.
If you bought an entire system from us, including GPS and XM weather unit, we have already
configured the Bluetooth devices and you should proceed to the next section:
Starting
AnywhereXP
.
If you just purchased the Raven XP and are going to configure it with your existing Bluetooth
GPS and/or XM unit, you will need instructions on linking these devices to your Raven XP.
These instructions can be found on our website at
www.anywheremap.com/documentation
. Click
on Anywhere XP or Anywhere WX XP and the look for the document titled
Configuring your
Raven XP with Bluetooth Devices.
Once completed, return to
this section and continue.
