    Installation Installing the Home Dock When installing the home dock in your home, choose a location in close proximity to your home entertainment system, PC computer, or amplified speakers, and also where the cable from the indoor/outdoor antenna can reach the home dock. The location should be easily ac- cessible and provide good visibility of the display, and should not be located where it will be in direct sunlight which will affect the visibility of the display screen.

  • Page 16: Installing The Indoor/Outdoor Antenna

    Installing the Indoor/Outdoor Antenna Before installing the indoor/outdoor antenna, read this entire section. To ensure consistent reception of the SIRIUS signal in your home, it is important that the antenna be oriented correctly. Note the following Best, Better, and Good considerations for antenna placement.
  • Page 17 GOOD reception can be achieved by placing the antenna indoors on a windowsill. The window will need to be facing in the direction of the SIRIUS satellites, as described later, and have a clear view of the sky. The antenna may need to be placed on a book to raise it above the level of the window frame.
  • Page 18 WEST Use the map to find the area you are located in (1 to 5). Then find the direction in which you need to have a clear view of the sky: Area 1: You will need a location with a clear view of the sky facing EAST or NORTHEAST or SOUTHEAST Area 2: You will need a location with a clear view of the sky facing NORTH or NORTH- EAST...
  • Page 19 For example, suppose you live in Area 2. You determined that your antenna will need to have a clear view of the sky facing North or Northeast. The exact direction is determined by your specific location in Area 2 relative to the X on the map: If you live in Texas, you will need a more North facing clear view of the sky whereas if you live in southern California, you will need a more Northeast facing clear view of the sky.
  • Page 20 To access the antenna aiming or signal indicator screen, press the Settings Device Antenna Aiming. The SATELLITE portion of the display screen (Figure 10) shows the strength of the signal being received from the satellite, while the TERRES- TRIAL portion of the display screen shows the strength of the signal being received from terrestrial based transmitters, if available.
  • Page 21 The second adjustment is to turn the antenna slightly to the left or right until the highest pos- sible signal strength is achieved. (Figure 12) If you find that it is not possible to receive a good SIRIUS signal in your location, SIRIUS of- fers a outdoor home antenna which can be mounted to the exterior of the home.
