Front Panel Locking: This feature disables the buttons on the
front panel. The SXM-100 can then only be changed by using
the remote control. (see page 22)
Channel Skipping: Channels may be programmed to be skipped.
In this case, the channel will not be shown when using the
up/down buttons. A skipped channel can only be tuned to by
direct tuning using the remote control. (see page 27)
Forced Tune Events: The SXM-100 can be programmed to tune
to a specific channel at a specific time using Forced Tune Events.
Forced Tune Events can also turn on or off Restricted Mode and
Front Panel Locking. (see page 31)
Changing Categories
The channels of the SiriusXM service are conveniently
organized into categories such as Hits, Rock, News, Sports,
etc. If using the front panel, enter Category Mode by pressing
the MODE button on the front panel until the CAT LED is
illuminated and the CHAN LED is not illuminated. Press the
up/down buttons to tune to a different category. Note that the
channel number, category name, channel name, artist name,
and song title information in the display change to reflect the
new category. A channel’s category name and channel name
alternate. Once you have found the desired category, press
the MODE button until both the CAT and CHAN LEDs are
illuminated. You will now stay in that category when pressing
the up/down buttons on the front panel.
If using the remote control, Category Mode (CAT LED
only illuminated) has no function. Press the CH key to enter
Channel Mode and the CAT key to enter Category/Channel
Mode. In Category/Channel Mode, use the left and right
arrows to change categories.
