This product is not affiliated with Sirius Satellite Radio in any way.
There are no warranties expressed or implied by purchase of this product.
All boards are tested and verified 100% before shipping.
While every care has been taken to provide a quality product, I cannot guarantee the board to

I am not liable for misuse of this product. Misuse includes improper installation, damage to the
board or radio while trying to install, and illegal use of the modified radio.
Tools needed:
1. Small Philips screwdriver (p1).

3. A double sided mirror.
Screws already removed to save me some time.
Using the small Philips screwdriver, remove the 7 screws in the SILVER case.

The left connector has analog audio on standard 1/8
(3.5mm) jack. A cable is provided. Also available on this
same jack is optical digital audio; an adaptor is provided to
allow use of standard Toslink cables.
The center connector is the power supply for the tuner.
Center pin is positive.
The right connector is USB.
When the suspend signal is sent from the computer, the tuner
will power off, and draw very little current, this is to prevent
battery drain.
Supplied is a coax dc power plug. Use this in a CarPC environment. Again, center
pin is the positive. Solder on 2 wires and connect center pin to 12VDC constant
(yellow on standard PC power supplies). And the outer is of course ground (black
on standard pc supplies).
