Xm Satellite Radio (Xm) Function - Garmin GMX 200 Pilot's Manual & Reference

XM Satellite Radio (XM) Function

Audio entertainment is available through the XM
Satellite Radio Service when activated in the optional
installation of the GDL 69A. The GMX 200 serves
as the display and control head for your remotely
mounted GDL 69A. XM Satellite Radio allows you
to enjoy a variety of radio programming over long
distances without having to constantly search for new
stations. Based on signal from satellites, coverage far
exceeds land-based transmissions. When enabled, the
XM Satellite Radio audio entertainment is accessible by
using the XM function smart key.
The information on the XM Satellite Radio display
is composed of four areas: the Active channel, avail-
able Channels, Category of the highlighted channel,
and the Volume setting. The Active Channel window
shows the Channel Name and Number, artist, Song
Title, Category, and provides an indication of signal
strength. A bar graph next to the antenna symbol
describes the signal strength. Maximum signal strength
is shown by three full bars.
The rotary knob, initially, will allow you to scroll
through the song list. Pressing the rotary knob changes
to Category Selection and pressing it again changes to
Volume Control. Pressing the rotary knob again will
return to song list scrolling.
