I recently purchased a axiom unit and cannot find any information if it supports the sirius weather receiver sr150 ?

Hello Msy380,

Unfortunately, at the time of this post, Sirius weather is not supported by AXIOM.

Is raymarine planning for support for the sr150 and if so is there a planned release date ?

Msy380,

Raymarine is indeed planning to add support for Sirius Satellite Weather via the SR150 within a future LightHouse 3 software update for the Axiom MFDs. While Raymarine has not announced information regarding which approximately quarterly update will include this feature, it can be state that this feature has been assigned very high priority among the near term features to be added prior to the 2018 boating season.

Raymarine Tech support is suggesting an end of August 2017 release date and available support. Sound good to you?

Welcome to the Raymarine Forum Arrowhead,

Raymarine has not announced a specific date for the addition of support for Sirius Satellite Weather/Radio Receivers. The best information available is that which was included within my last response within this thread.

Chuck,

I noted your response regarding the SR150. Will the SR6 also be supported when Sirius weather (and radio?) software is included in a future Axiom release?

Thanks,

Joe

Joe,

At the software is still being developed to support SiriusXM Marine Weather within LH3, Raymarine has not yet specified which Raymarine Sirius/SiriusXM Satellite Weather Receivers will be supported. This information will be included within the updated LH3 Operations Guide when support for SiriusXM Marine Weather is introduced into LH3.

Just a follow up on this thread since it's been a few months. I saw there have been several software updates to lighthouse for the axiom, but still cannot find support for the SR 150. Also looking on your website, products, it mentions the SR 150 for weather services,but no other information on ordering it, was wondering if it is being replaced with something else?

Welcome to the Raymarine Forum Msy380,

Thanks for your interest in Raymarine products. Raymarine has not yet introduced SiriusXM Satellite Weather Features within LightHouse 3 software. Our plan is to offer most, if not all of the capabilities of our LightHouse II software, in LightHouse 3. That being said, there are literally hundreds of different features that must be recreated on the new system and that takes a significant amount of time and testing. To view the web page containing LightHouse 3 FAQs, click here. The feature additions for each LightHouse 3 software update may be found on the LightHouse 3 for Axiom MFDs software update web page. The SR150 remains available and may be purchased/ordered from an authorized Raymarine Dealer.
