Encoder Knob and Select Button:

The Encoder knob is the primary control for navigating through the various lists and option menus available on the unit. In the default mode, the Encoder knob provides sequential tuning through the available program channels. Clockwise (CW) rotation tunes up one channelper-detent, while Counterclockwise (CCW) rotation tunes down one channel-per-detent. When in the list or menu mode, turning the Encoder knob CCW and CW scrolls down and up, respectively, through the various menus and lists. The current selection from the list will be highlighted on the display. When the item is highlighted, press the Encoder knob (Select Button) to enter the selection. Pressing and holding the Encoder knob will tune to the previously selected channel.

Category Buttons:

The Up or Down category buttons allows the user to advance through the channel groups based on content category. By turning the rotary Encoder knob, the user can then scroll up or down through the channels within that category. Once a choice has been made, it can be entered by pressing the Select Button.

Memory (MEMO) Button (s-seek) Function):

This feature allows the user to capture and store the current program data information (Channel Name & Number/Artist & Song title). You can store up to 24 Artist/Song Title combinations. The Shuttle also has the capability to search the current incoming Sirius signal, and thereby alert you if it matches the Artist/Song title stored in Shuttle memory.

Display (DISP) Button:

This button allows the user to choose one of several ways of presenting the Channel Name, Artist and Song title information on the LCD screen.

The unit contains 10 preset buttons. There are three banks of preset memory locations offering a total of 30 presets. These banks are designated A, B and C and can be selected using the BAND button. The display in the lower right hand side changes to show the corresponding Preset bank. Each bank will store 10 user-preferred channels. Select the desired channel you wish to save into memory by using the Encoder knob, the direct tuning method or the category tuning method. With the desired channel playing, press and hold any of the numbered keypad buttons (0-9); the corresponding preset number will flash. A confirmation tone is heard, confirming that the preset has been stored. Continue this procedure for storing all desired streams.
