7 G500/G600 - GDL 69 Series Activation Prior to contacting SiriusXM, the GDU must be on and operational. For activation you will need your SiriusXM Radio IDs and your billing information. Your Radio IDs can be found on the last page of this document. If for some reason you do not have your IDs, you will be able to find your Radio IDs on the SiriusXM page in the AUX group. The steps below will take you through the process. 1. Make sure that the aircraft's SiriusXM antenna has an unobstructed view of the southern sky. It is not recommended for the aircraft to be in a hangar. 2. Hook up the aircraft to external power if available. The activation process may take 45-60 minutes or more, depending on the demand on the SiriusXM activation system. 3. Power on the avionics and allow the G500/G600 to power up. 4. Rotate the large MFD knob clockwise to the first page of the AUX group. Rotate the small MFD knob to the XM Information page. See Figure 7-1. Figure 7-1. XM Information Page 5.
