3 G1000/G900X/G950 ACTIVATION

The G1000/G900X/G950 must be configured to accept information from a GDL 69 Series unit in
accordance with the applicable display installation manual. The complete activation process may take over
45 minutes, depending on the demands of the SiriusXM activation system. Do not cycle or remove power
from the units during the activation process. It is recommended that the aircraft is outside and away from
metallic structures. For activation, you will need the SiriusXM Radio ID(s) and your billing information.
The SiriusXM Radio IDs are located on the XM Info page (see figure 3-2) and on the back page of this
document.
NOTE
GDL 69/69A units have separate Data and Audio Radio IDs, and will not function
correctly with both audio and data services activated under one ID. GDL 69 SXM
receivers use one Radio ID for both data and audio services.

3.1 Activation Steps

1. Ensure the aircraft's SiriusXM antenna has an unobstructed view of the southern sky.
2. Connect aircraft to external power source if available.
3. Once the G1000/G900X/G950 is powered up, turn the outer FMS knob clockwise on the MFD
until the AUX group is highlighted. See figure 3-1 for details.
