Introduction
The Audiovox CommanderMT System processes the XM® satellite signals
received by an externally mounted antenna for your vehicle. The
CommanderMT System recognizes and decodes the incoming XM® program information and provides an audio signal to your radio or other
audio output equipment.
NOTE: When installed in a vehicle, the XM signal can be received andprocessed
virtually anywhere as long as there are no obvious satellite signal obstructions such as nearby tall buildings, high terrain, parking garages or tunnels.
The CommanderMT Display Controller is typically installed in an accessible
location of the vehicle (dash area), consistent with line-of-sight operation
of the remote control, and/or within easy reach of the driver.
