FIS NOTIFICATIONS

The following are descriptions of FIS notifications that may be displayed.

(GRAPHICAL PRODUCT) DATA HAS NOT BEEN
RECEIVED

If no valid graphical product
data is received (in this case
NEXRAD) a notification such
as that shown in Figure 2-78
will be displayed.

This notification usually means
that the system is not in FIS
VDL coverage or there is no
subscription set up for the
Value Added Product selected.
For XM WX, the notification
usually means that the XM WX
signal strength is poor.

The notification can also occur
while in coverage if not all of
the data for a weather product
has been received.

NO METARS AVAIL-
ABLE IN SELECTED
AREA

A notification such as that
shown in Figure 2-79 will be
displayed if no METARs are
available in the selected area.

This notification means that the
FIS system is working properly, there are simply no reports of the
selected mode within the area.
