Remember, once connected and with a GOOD signal, 

there is nothing you can do to speed 

weather data retrieval!! 

The weather files are broadcast by XM on a regular frequency (some 

at 5 minute intervals and some at 12 minute intervals). DO NOT press any buttons that appear 

to offer Download NEXRAD, etc. These buttons initiate AnywhereLink and will disable your 

connection to the XM weather unit.

 

 

Shutting Down AnywhereXP

 

 

1.  Tap the red X button in the upper right corner of the window or tap File > Exit. 

2.  Tap Start (lower left corner) and then tap Shut Down. 

3.  Tap Shut Down 

 

These units start up and shut down very quickly. As stated earlier, we strongly recommend you 

shut the tablet down all the way when you flight has completed. We have purposely disabled all 

“sleep mode” and “hibernation”. We do not recommend their use, especially when the 

AnywhereXp software is left running. It is very likely that upon restart, the Bluetooth devices 

(GPS and XM) may not reconnect properly.
