Each time new weather arrives, your map can play a short animation (rainbow, radar sweep, fade and others) before showing the new weather. You can switch them off, or keep only the ones you like.

Open your map’s settings #

1. On a phone or computer that is on the same WiFi as your map, open a web browser.
2. Go to http://<map name>.local (the name you wrote down during the WiFi setup) or http://<IP address>, for example http://192.168.1.50. If you don’t know the IP address, see how to find the IP address of your PilotMap. Some Android phones can’t open .local names; use the IP address there.
3. In the menu at the top, move the mouse over Settings and click Editor.
   
4. Click a blue bar to open that group of settings.
   

Turn the animations off or on #

1. Open Transitional Wipes Settings.
2. Set Use Transitional Wipes During FAA Data Updates to No to switch all animations off, or Yes to use them.
   
3. With Yes, each animation below has its own number. 0 switches that one off; a higher number plays it more times. Time Delay sets the speed (smaller is faster).
4. Use Random Colors lets the map pick the animation colours itself.

Save #

1. In the menu at the top, move the mouse over Settings and click Save Config File. You will see Settings Successfully Saved.
   
2. That’s it. The map restarts its weather display by itself and shows the new setting within a minute or two. While it restarts, the legend may show all green for a moment (that is the normal “starting” status). You don’t need to unplug it.

Tip: changes are only kept after Save Config File. If you close the page before saving, nothing changes.
