6. Connection Options
The XR9 and Cradle provide an audio output
signal in three ways:
1. FM Wireless Transmitter - When using the XC9
cradle with the wireless FM transmitter option,
the XM audio signal can be received at your car
radio on selectable FM frequencies using the
menu options included in your XR9. (Refer to
the XR9 owner’s manual.) The XM audio signal
can then be played through your car radio when
the car radio is tuned to one of the available
frequencies.
2. FM Direct Wiring - If the FM wireless transmitter
does not provide satisfactory performance in
your vehicle, use the optional FM Switching Box
assembly (Part No. SAT-SWB) which provides
a hard-wired FM output. Connect the switching
box to the FM OUT connector on the rear of the
cradle; the other end of the switching box plugs
into the antenna jack of your radio. By using
this assembly, and selecting the appropriate
FM output frequency (88.1MHz -107.9MHz)
using the XR9 FM Options-Frequency Control
menu, the XM signal received at the ANT cradle
antenna input can be played through your car
radio when tuned to one of these fequencies.
3. 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 XR9 FM modulator option off to
avoid interference.
