Personalizing Your roadyXT

You can easily adapt your roadyXT to suit your listening habits. Simply press the “menu” button to see the options you can customize. If you ever get lost or decide not to change anything, press the “menu” button several times to return to normal operation. Or just wait about 15 seconds and roadyXT automatically cancels whatever you’re doing.

Making your vehicle’s FM radio an XM radio

Your roadyXT contains a built-in FM transmitter that sends the XM audio signal to your car or marine FM radio when using the vehicle cradle only.

1.Turn on your FM radio, and turn off your roadyXT.

2.Unplug any cassette adapter or audio cable from the roadyXT cradle. If you are using the Delphi FM Direct Adapter (model SA10112, sold separately), connect it to the vehicle cradle.

3.Find an FM frequency that is not being used by any commercial FM station. Tune your FM radio through the FM band and note which frequency has no FM station or the least amount of interference.

4.Turn on your roadyXT.

5.Press the “menu” button and select “FM Frequency.”

6.Match the FM frequency that you found in step 3.

7.You should now hear XM programming on your vehicle’s FM radio. If the sound isn’t clear or you hear noise or static, try another FM frequency. If you’re traveling, you may need to retune periodically; this is due to the differences in signal strength of local FM stations and is not a problem with your roadyXT.

8.Pressing and holding the “jump” button for 2 seconds pulls up a list of the last six FM frequencies you selected. This allows you to quickly tune to unused FM frequencies when using the FM transmitter. Use the arrow buttons and the “select” button to choose the frequency you want.
