3.0 System Checkout
The following XMD076A system-checkout aides are intended to assure proper
installation and interfacing to the MFD, antenna and audio system. Familiarize yourself
with:
• The MFD operational guide for explanations of using the MFD to communicate with
the XMD076A.
• The XMC050 Controller operations guide.

3.1 Initial Installation Validation Test
Before applying power to the system, verify and complete the following:
• 100% continuity check performed and satisfactory.
• All interconnects and ground connections are fully made and seated.
• The aircraft’s power source is at the proper voltage, 11VDC - 16VDC for 14V
aircraft and 22VDC - 32VDC for 28V aircraft.
• Move aircraft to an outdoor area with a clear view of the southern sky, free of
buildings, trees or other obstructions.

3.2.1 Service Activation
The system requires two service activations from XM Satellite Radio Inc. - one for the
XM WX Satellite Weather service and another for the XM Radio. For installation
purposes only, temporary XM WX and the XM Radio services are pre-activated from the
factory. This activation will terminate automatically without prior notice. To avoid
unexpected deactivation, customers should contact XM Satellite Radio Inc. at 1-
800-985-9200 to transfer the subscriptions immediately after installation.
NOTE: The weather activation process for the XMD076A is the same as the XMD076.
Please contact Heads Up Technologies via email at service@heads-up.com for
additional information on the process to activate receivers if required.
