XM SERVICE ACTIVATION

NOTE:

but there should be no adverse effects if inadvertently selected during flight. Refer to the GDL 69/69A XM
Satellite Radio Activation Instructions (190-00355-04, Rev F or later) for further information.

Activation Data

During Initial Setup

Each Data Link Receiver is assigned unique Data and Audio Radio IDs that allow XM to communicate with

the receiver. To activate XM service, the appropriate Radio ID(s) must be provided to XM to authorize the
installed services for that receiver. If XM weather services have not been activated, all the weather product
boxes are cleared on the XM Information Page and a yellow ‘Activation Required’ message shows up in the
center of the Weather Data Link Page (Map Page Group).

The ‘Service Class’ refers to the groupings of weather products available for subscription.
