The Submenu commands in the Play Information screen for 
the XM radio:

Playback: Provides the same tuning and playback control 
functions as available on the remote control. So, you can 
control these functions using the cursor controller on the front 
panel or from a PS/2 keyboard (only with cursor and enter 
keys). On-screen buttons shown in gray provide no function 
for XM radio control; the same buttons on the remote control 
don’t work either.

Direct Access: Lets you specify a radio station channel 
number in a dialog box (page 58).

Search Mode: Switches how you can search a radio station 
using the skip backward and forward buttons (see the 
following column).

Save to Preset: Registers the current radio station to the 
Presets list in two steps (page 59).

Broadcast: Streams a radio program currently being 
received on the MCX-2000 to MusicCAST clients specified in 
a dialog box (page 89).

Recall Play: Makes the MCX-2000 start ‘continued’ 
playback of a song currently playing on a client specified in a 
dialog box (page 90).

The MCX-2000 lets you search for the XM radio channel you 
want to listen to. There are two different search modes you can 
select from, depending on your preferences. You can also select 
a desired channel by directly entering the relevant channel 
number.

From the Submenu in the Play Information screen for XM radio, 
locate Search Mode and select one of the following options:

forward buttons (

within the current category. Pressing either group selection
