HDRT must be connected before the

the PXAMG from the vehicles harness
for 5 minutes. Verify the 8 pin DIN
HDRT cable is securely connected
at both ends before reconnecting the
vehicle harness.
This only occurs the first time the
PXAMG is powered on. Wait a few
minutes, cycle ignition off and on then
enter SAT Mode.
Use Gateway to access HD Radio
source. This will provide all AM and

Remove from factory radio, connect
into HDRT module. Note* some
vehicles need to use the supplied
antenna adaptor to make this

This is expected performance. The
Digital HD Radio playback will resume
in areas of higher broadcast signal
strength.
