WSI InFlight weather content only. The AV-350 is capable of receiving WSI InFlight weather
content as well as Sirius audio programming. Aviation data content received via this datalink,
such as graphical weather products, is made available to display devices via RS-232, RS-422,
and Ethernet communications ports. Audio content is available for entertainment purposes, and
may be controlled by a wireless RF remote control or from a connected display device with
audio control capability. The AV-350 also supports discrete inputs for volume, muting, and
