Overview
Overview: The Delphi Roady2
GoPack contains everything you need to enjoy XM Satellite Radio in your vehicle
or on-the-go. The GoPack contains the Roady2 XM Satellite Radio receiver, a
cassette adapter, a cigarette lighter power adapter, and a magnetic roof-mount
antenna. It also contains the Delphi Personal Audio System, which includes a
portable, battery powered dock for the Roady2, an AC adapter, and headphones
with a built-in antenna. In order for the system to work, you'll need a
subscription to XM Satellite Radio.
XM Satellite Radio: XM
Satellite Radio programming offers more than 120 digital radio channels
including 68 channels of commercial free music, plus news, sports, talk, comedy,
and other entertainment programming from coast to coast.
Roady2 Features
Roady2 Display: While tuned to an XM
channel, the display contains the following information: artist name, channel
name and number, display mode indicator, category search indicator, signal
strength indicator, and keypad mode (Direct, Preset A, or Preset B). The
receiver display features seven selectable colors: red, green, sky blue, orange,
night blue, purple, and pink.
Interchangeable Faceplates: The
Roady2 is equipped with three interchangeable face plates. You can install the
Roady2 with a red, blue or black faceplate to suit your mood or match your
vehicle.
FM Frequency: Roady2's internal
FM modulator can be used to send the audio to your radio on an unused FM
station. You can choose from 12 different stations: 88.1, 88.3, 88.5, 88.7, 88.9,
106.7, 106.9, 107.1, 107.3, 107.5, 107.7, and 107.9 MHz.
(In order to optimize the performance of this feature, the XM antenna should be
installed near your vehicle's FM antenna.)
Tuning Wheel: The Tuning Wheel
can be used to scroll through channel or menu options. Pressing the Tuning Wheel
allows you to select the current channel or menu option.
Direct Entry: Using the numeric
buttons on the face of the receiver, you can directly access XM channels.
Direct Tune: This feature
changes the functionality of the Tuning Wheel so that it automatically selects a
channel each time it is rolled, without having to press the Tuning Wheel in.
Channel Presets: The receiver
can store up to 30 preset channels. They are organized into three different
groups, or memory banks: Preset A, Preset B, and Preset C. Each memory bank can
store up to 10 channels.
Channel Preview: You can use
the Tuning Wheel to preview the artists and songs currently playing on other
channels without having to tune away from your current channel.
Artist Name and Song Title Memory:
You can save the artist's name and song title on the current channel for future
reference. Up to 20 different artist names/song titles can be saved at once,
after which any new information that is saved will replace the oldest
information in memory.
Tune Select: Using this
function, you can program the receiver to alert you with a tone and display
change when a favorite song is played again on a channel other than the one you
are listening to.
Stock Ticker: This feature lets
you track up to 20 of your favorite stocks and indices. You can track any stock
symbol and most indices listed on the NYSE, NASDAQ, and AMEX. The stock market
index information on the Roady2 is approximately 25 minutes delayed.
Audio Level: You can adjust the
receiver's audio level output if it is too high, causing distortion, or too low
for your vehicle.
Auto-off: You can set the tuner
to automatically shut off 60, 120, or 180 minutes after it is turned on.
Car Mount: Using the supplied
car mount with attached adhesive pad, the receiver can be mounted to any flat
surface in your vehicle. The car mount has a ball joint that allows you to
swivel the receiver for optimum viewing. Using the self-adhesive Velcro pads,
you can mount the receiver directly to your vehicle's dashboard without using
the car mount.
Optional Home Kit: An optional
home kit (item # 040SA10069) allows you to listen to XM Satellite Radio through
your home audio system. The kit includes a docking station, wireless remote
control, an indoor/outdoor antenna, an audio patch cord, and
a power supply.
Personal Audio System Features
Personal Audio System Display: The Roady2 Personal
Audio System's 1-1/8" x 3/8" LCD display shows the mode (FM or XM), FM station, battery charge
indicator, and volume.
Backlight: Any time you adjust
the controls or change modes, the blue LED backlight turns on for a short time
so you can easily read the display information.
Mode Switch: Using the mode
switch, you can choose one of the following modes: FM radio, XM satellite radio,
or Off.
Headset: The unique headset has
been specially designed for the Roady2 Personal Audio System to receive
satellite radio signals and produce excellent sound quality. The headset
contains a built-in antenna that has the same ability to receive satellite
signals as the antenna that is included in the Roady2 package. There is a
built-in volume control on the right side. Like your Roady2 antenna, the headset
must be in a line of sight with the satellite in order to function.
Rechargeable Battery Pack: The
Roady2 Personal Audio System uses a rechargeable Lithium Ion battery. The
battery will fully charge in approximately two hours when the Roady2 Personal
Audio System is turned off. A fully charged battery will run up to four hours in
XM mode and at least 12 hours in FM mode.
