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.
4. Starting and shutting down Pocket Plates XP
1. Tap – Tap on the Pocket Plates icon.
2. The software is now ready to use.
Refer to the Pocket Plates release notes for the new version instructions and also the existing
manual for instructions on how to update the plates, etc.
