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.

Note:

 As with all weather services, the 

information presented is advisory only and you 
should be aware that errors may occur.

Note:

 If you have an SR100 connected, you can 

also control your Sirius satellite audio via your 
E-Series display.
