You can connect to the internet with the wireless LAN signal to download weather in-
formation (see chapter 12) and to connect to an iPhone, iPod or iPad. To download
weather information, connect the existing LAN network. To connect to an iPhone, iPod
or iPad, create a local wireless network.
Notes about the wireless LAN
• The wireless LAN function is available only in the countries which have acquired ra-
dio wave certification. Turn this function off in countries which do not have radio
wave certification. Ocean-going vessels that have radio wave certification can use
the wireless LAN function in any country that has acquired radio wave certification.
Vessels with radio wave certification that enter a country that does not have radio
wave certification may use the wireless LAN function only onboard the vessel.
Available countries (as of January, 2015): USA, Canada, New Zealand, Australia,
Japan
• The communication rate and effective range for the wireless LAN can be affected
by the electromagnetic wave, interfering object, or access point location.
• We strongly recommend using the wireless LAN with encrypted connection. Other-
wise unauthorized access by a third party can occur, which can cause loss of data
or system crash.
• We recommend changing the initial password when using a local wireless network.
