Setting Up the Home Antenna Before setting up your Signal Repeater, set up your XM home antenna by following the instructions that came with your Delphi XM receiver home kit or audio system. Check to make sure you are receiving a signal with no error messages on the display.
Figure 1. Connect your home kit’s satellite radio antenna and the A/C power adaptor that came with your Delphi XM Satellite Radio Signal Repeater to the transmitter as shown. A blue light will turn on in the front of the unit when the A/C adaptor is plugged in, with a second blue light turning on when the antenna is connected.
Setting Up the Repeater Antenna Figure 2. Connect the repeater antenna and the A/C adaptor that came with your home system to the back of your home stand as shown. If using a home kit, connect the ministereo (black connector) to the jack labeled “LINE OUT” on the back of the home stand. If your receiver does not have a built-in modulator or you choose not to use it, connect the red and white connectors to the input jacks on your home stereo equipment you want to use.
Satellite Radio Signal Repeater Placement and Mounting Placement Your Delphi XM Satellite Radio Signal Repeater transmitter should be placed in a location that allows for connection to a properly placed XM home antenna (i.e., near a south-facing window). See your satellite radio receiver user guide for more information on locating a suitable location for the antenna.

Mounting Your transmitter may rest flat on a horizontal surface, or it may be wall- mounted. To mount on a wall, insert two screws (provided) 2" apart in a horizontal line, leaving the screw heads approximately 1/4" from the wall. Slip the two holes located on the bottom of the transmitter over the screw heads and gently slide the unit down until it locks into place.
Your repeater antenna is designed to stand vertically in the provided holder and should be placed on a horizontal surface near your satellite radio receiver. Adjusting the Transmitter Antenna To ensure the strongest signal is being transmitted to your repeater antenna, adjust the transmitter’s antenna as shown in figure 4.
(e.g., near other wireless devices or if someone else is using another transmitter), simply lower the output level by sliding the switch to the left. (See figure 5.) Note: Operating at a lower output level decreases the range of your Delphi XM Satellite Radio Signal Repeater. Min.
Operating Near Other Wireless Devices Your satellite radio receiver may experience audio mutes when the repeater system is operated near other wireless devices such as phones, pagers, wireless computer peripherals, wireless LANS, etc. In addition, your repeater system may interfere with the operation of these wireless devices.
