XM Universal Audio Adaptor
8
(FM Modulator) Installation
You can listen to XM Satellite Radio directly
through your FM radio using the XM
Universal Audio Adaptor. To install the adaptor,
follow the steps below. (See figure 2 on page 3.)
1. Insert the adaptor into a cigarette lighter
or 12V power outlet. Note: A red indicator
light on the adaptor signals that it is
receiving 12V power and will remain on
during normal operation.
2. Insert the right-angle power connector
at the end of the XM Universal Audio
Adaptor cable into the SKYFi marine
cradle input labeled "6V."
3. Insert the right-angle audio connector
at the end of the XM Universal Audio
Adaptor cable into the plug on the SKYFi
marine cradle labeled "Line Out."
Configuring the Adaptor
The XM Universal Audio Adaptor works by
changing the XM Satellite Radio audio output
to an FM signal that can be received by
your FM radio. You may experience some
interference if a local FM station is broad-
casting at the same frequency, so for the
best performance it is important to pick an
open frequency using the following steps:
1. Tune your radio to each of the following
FM frequencies and note which one does
NOT have a current FM station on it and
has the least amount of bleed over from
a nearby station and then tune your
radio to that frequency.
88.1 88.3 88.5 88.7
107.1 107.3 107.5 107.7
Note: When in highly populated metro
areas with a large number of FM stations,
you may have difficulty finding an available
FM frequency. When moving to a new
location, you may have to select a new
open frequency.
