XM Radio Introduction
Part Two: Section 1
Part Two:
XM Radio Interface
Section 1: Introduction
Overview
The GDL 69 is a remote sensor that receives
broadcast weather data from a data service of SiriusXM
Satellite Radio Inc. The GDL 69A is similar to the GDL
69, but also receives audio entertainment broadcasts from
another service of SiriusXM Satellite Radio. The 400W
and 500W series units serve as the display and control
head for your remotely mounted GDL 69/69A radio.
Before the GDL 69/69A can be used, the unit must
be activated by SiriusXM Satellite Radio with a service
subscription through SiriusXM Satellite Radio. Please note
that the GDL 69 is a weather data link. The GDL 69A is a
weather data link and audio receiver. The data link service
and the audio entertainment services must be activated
separately.
Your GDL 69 or GDL 69A is shipped with one or two
radio hardware identifications, respectively. These IDs
serve as identification codes for your SiriusXM Satellite
Radio-equipped GDL 69/69A and are needed in the
activation process. The ID(s) is (are) attached to the
Activation Instructions and printed on a label on the back
of the unit. The IDs can also be retrieved through your
unit in the SiriusXM Satellite Radio Information page of
the Aux function. Contact your dealer or customer service
if you are unable to locate the radio hardware IDs.
Weather and/or audio data from your GDL 69/69A are
provided by SiriusXM Satellite Radio, a company separate
and independent from Garmin Corporation. Have your
radio hardware IDs ready before contacting SiriusXM
Satellite Radio. During the process, you can select services
for subscription. Keep in mind that the GDL 69 has no audio
capability, audio services will not be available with the unit.
Follow the GDL 69/69A XM Satellite Radio Activation
Instructions (190-00355-04) enclosed with your GDL
69/69A unit to activate the XM products.

XM-related pages appear in the NAV group of pages:
Map Page. The Map page (the second page in the
NAV page group) becomes capable of displaying
weather data and the boundaries of areas with
Temporary Flight Restrictions (TFRs).
XM Weather Page. The XM Weather page is inserted
in the NAV page group, immediately before the

ment, or Winds Aloft.
