5. Connection Options

The Xpress Receiver and Cradle provide an audio output signal in three ways:

a.FM Wireless Transmitter - When using the XMC10 cradle with the wireless FM transmitter option, the XM audio signal can be received through your vehicle radio on selectable FM frequencies using the menu options included in your Xpress Receiver. (Refer to the Receiver owner’s manual.) The XM audio signal can then be played through your vehicle radio when the car radio is tuned to one of the available frequencies.

b.FM Direct Wiring - If the FM wireless transmitter does not provide satisfactory performance in your vehicle, use the optional FM Direct Adapter, Part # XMFM-1, which provides a hard-wired FM output.

c.Low-Level Audio Output - For vehicles equipped with radio head units with auxiliary audio inputs, the audio signal can be routed through an optional audio cable (Part No. SAT- RCA) and applied to the auxiliary inputs of a radio or entertainment system. In this case, it is best to turn the Xpress Receiver FM modulator option off to avoid interference.
