Airports with strong wind blink so you notice them. You can choose the wind speed where blinking starts, or switch it off completely.
Open your map’s settings #
- On a phone or computer that is on the same WiFi as your map, open a web browser.
- Go to
http://<map name>.local(the name you wrote down during the WiFi setup) orhttp://<IP address>, for examplehttp://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.localnames; use the IP address there. - In the menu at the top, move the mouse over Settings and click Editor.

- Click a blue bar to open that group of settings.

Change the wind speed #
- Open Basic Settings.
- Change Set Wind Speed. It is in knots: airports reporting this wind speed or more will blink. For example
15blinks at 15 knots and more,25only for really windy airports.
Turn blinking on or off #
- Open Sectional Map Settings.
- Set Blink LED’s for High Winds to No to stop all blinking, or Yes to turn it back on.

Save #
- In the menu at the top, move the mouse over Settings and click Save Config File. You will see Settings Successfully Saved.

- 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.
