Rev. J GDL 69/69A XM Satellite Radio Activation Procedures
7.2 Activating the Radio
NOTE
Make sure to be specific for requesting a DATA ONLY service under the Data Radio ID
and an AUDIO ONLY service under the Audio Radio ID. Most XM receivers in the
market have both audio and data services under one ID. The GDL 69 Series will not
function correctly with both an audio and a data service activated under one ID.
NOTE
During the activation process do not change channels or pages during this time.
The G500/G600 will need to be on the XM INFORMATION page of the AUX Group when you call for
activation.
Call 1.800.985.9200 and the XM operator will ask you for your XM Data IDs. Activation should begin
once the XM operator has all your information. During activation the XM Information page will show
the various Weather Products being activated. The activation process is not complete until a valid service
class is shown. Once activation has been completed, verify that the Service Class and Weather Products
shown are the services that you purchased. If you are satisfied that you received the products you
requested, press the soft key under LOCK. This will bring up a small inset window as shown in
Figure 7-3. Rotate the small MFD knob to YES and press the ENT key lock in your activation.

7.3 Verifying Subscribed Services
When the data radio (weather receiver) has been activated, the subscription level will be shown in the
service class field. See Figure 7-1. Rotate the large MFD knob to the XM Radio page. Press the CH-
and CH+ soft key to verify that the channel changes. You should see a complete listing of all the
channels of your subscription as shown in Figure 7-4.
