SPOS has the option to collect the weather updates you have selected in the Weather Subscription dialogue and patches to the software, automatically from DTN servers. The files are downloaded when you press ‘Update Forecast’, or at program start up and/or selected time intervals (to be configured via Update Options).
SPOS uses standard http port 80 / https port 443. It will connect to;
- data.spos.eu – 194.53.0.234 – for the weather updates
- api.routeguard.eu – 194.53.0.177 – for patches to the software
