Home Kit lets you enjoy SIRIUS Satellite Radio’s digital enter-

tainment in your home. You can connect the home dock directly to your home entertainment

system, to amplified speakers, or integrate it into your computer’s sound system. Cables are

provided where necessary. The home dock also features a charging station for charging and

storing a spare battery.

The kit includes a USB cable for connecting the home dock to your computer to enable you to

use the My Sirius Studio

®

software with your Stiletto. The My Sirius Studio software allows

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.

Connecting the AC Power Adapter

Connect the AC Power Adapter to the DC5V connector at the rear of the home dock (Figure

4), and plug it into a wall outlet.

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 considerations for antenna placement:

BEST reception can be achieved by placing the antenna outside on the roof, with a clear

360 degree view of the sky. This position will afford the best view of the sky for best

reception. When placed in this location, an antenna extension cable may be required.

BETTER reception can be achieved by placing the antenna outside a window, or by

mounting it to the side of the house. In either case, try to achieve the best possible clear

view of the sky.

GOOD reception can be achieved by placing your antenna in a window. Try to achieve

a clear unobstructed view of the sky. If your location is in major metropolitan area, the

antenna may be located inside the home because terrestrial transmitters are used to boost

signal strength.

If you cannot obtain a clear 360 degree view of the sky (Best), then for the Better and Good

installations you must at least have a clear view of the sky in the direction of the SIRIUS satel-

lites, as shown in the following map diagram. (Figure 6)

HORIZON

SKY

SOUTH

WEST EAST

NORTH

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

Area 3: You will need a location with a clear view of the sky facing NORTH or NORTH-

WEST

Area 4: You will need a location with a clear view of the sky facing WEST or

NORTHWEST or SOUTHWEST

Area 5: You will need a clear view of the sky facing STRAIGHT UP (Outdoors only)

Choose a mounting location for the antenna which has an unobstructed view of the sky in the

direction for your area.

For example, suppose you live in Area 2. You determined that your antenna will need to have

Figure 6Figure 6

[ Installation ]

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.

Once you have found a suitable location for the antenna, route the antenna cable to the

home dock. Be sure you avoid any obstructions that could crimp, kink, or twist the cable. Use

protective grommets wherever rough openings are encountered. If the antenna is installed

outdoors, route the cable from the antenna location to the interior of the home, working the

cable through the basement, under a window sill, etc., and make adjustments to take up cable

slack as necessary. Connect the antenna cable to the ANT connection on the rear of the

home dock. (Refer to Figure 4 on page 16.) Optional antenna extension cables are available if

needed. Refer to the Optional Accessories section for more details.

Testing and Optimizing the Antenna Signal Strength

The stronger the SIRIUS signal strength, the less likely it is that you will experience an inter-

ruption of the audio when listening to a broadcast. To assist you in adjusting the antenna

aiming for optimal reception, your SIRIUS radio can display a screen showing the strength of

the SIRIUS signal being received. (Figure 7)

To access the antenna aiming or signal indicator screen, consult the manual which accom-

panied your SIRIUS radio. The SATELLITE portion of the display screen (Figure 4) shows the

strength of the signal being received from the satellite, while the TERRESTRIAL portion of the

display screen shows the strength of the signal being received from terrestrial based transmit-

ters, if available. Make small adjustments to the aiming of the antenna until you achieve the

strongest possible signal.
