INDEX
During a Connext Data Request, the Request Status box initially displays “Contacting Connext...”. Once a
connection is established, the Request Status Box displays “Receiving Wx Data... Time Remaining:” with an
estimated data transfer time (either minutes or seconds). If desired, the Connext Data Request window may be
closed while the data request is processing by pressing the FMS Knob; the data request will continue to process
in the background. Connext Data Requests typically take between 1 to 4 minutes to complete depending on
the size of the selected weather coverage area and Iridium signal strength.
The system retrieves all available Garmin Connext Weather products within the selected coverage area during
an initial Connext Data Request, regardless of which products (if any) are currently enabled for display. On
subsequent requests, previously retrieved textual data (such as METARs and TAFS) is retained if it has not
expired, while new textual weather data matching the current coverage area and all graphical weather data is
downloaded during every data request.
