GRIB weather
The NSS includes a GRIB data viewer. You can import GRIB files via a Micro-SD card inserted
into the card reader, and overlay the information onto your charts.
The GRIB data is available for download from www.grib.us.
Importing GRIB data
GRIB data must be imported into memory before it can be used. The file can be imported
directly from a Micro-SD card, or from the NSS if you have previously copied the file to the
device.
¼ Note: GRIB data that is imported from a Micro-SD will not be saved in the NSS. The data will be
lost when new GRIB data is imported.
Select the GRIB file on the Micro-SD card or on the device to import the data.
The GRIB weather display
Imported GRIB weather data can be displayed as an overlay on your chart panel.

When the GRIB weather overlay is selected, the chart menu will increase to show GRIB
weather options. From this menu you can select which weather symbols you want to
display, set the distance between the barbs, and you can adjust the opaqueness of
the weather symbols.
From this menu you can also animate the weather forecast as described later in this
chapter.
