Features
The enhanced PB150 Ultrasonic WeatherStation® Instrument features higher-accuracy temperature readings and improvedwind speed and direction accuracy. WeatherCaster™ PC Software (available for download from www.airmartechnology.com)
puts your own personal weatherman on-board the boat, 24 hours a day. The easy-to-use program has multiple screen
views and advanced setup features to customize what you want to see. No Computer on board—no problem, just connect
the PB150 to a NMEA 0183 display for up-to-the-minute weather information.
Before Leaving the Dock — Decide if you want to spend your day on the water. Anticipate weather fronts by checking
the wind speed and direction, temperature, and barometric pressure. Check the weather history graphs, as the
WeatherCaster™ Software can store readings for up to 72 hours.
Underway — Monitor up-to-the-minute weather conditions at your location. See where and when the fish will bite best
based on wind conditions and a rising or falling barometer.
Docking — The on-board PC or chart plotter can display true wind data to make docking a vessel in high wind a breeze.
By combining Furuno’s popular RD30 Nav Data Repeater with the PB150 Weather Station, you can now display important
weather information in a large, easy-to-read format. As an added bonus, the PB150 has been fitted with an internal
compass as well as a state-of-the-art Furuno GPS sensor, allowing you to utilize the PB150 as a backup GPS navigator.
