Getting Started Installation & Setup Introduction The SIRIUS Home Satellite Radio Tuner must be connected to the windowsill antenna (supplied) to process the SIRIUS signal. The Tuner recognizes and decodes the incoming SIRIUS program information and provides an audio signal to your stereo receiving equipment or other audio output equipment.
Recommended Guidelines Terrestrial repeaters are located in major cities. In those areas, it may be possible to locate the windowsill antenna away from a window and still get satisfactory reception. You can also place the antenna outside (on a roof structure), provided it is clear of any overhead obstructions. Note: Because of the orbiting characteristics of the SIRIUS satellites, the strength of the SIRIUS signal may change over time. In most cases however, the signal should be available continuously.
Antenna Placement Consult the map for the direction in which to point the antenna. Aim the portion of the antenna with the logo on it toward the location indicated by the X on the map. To ensure strong reception in your home, observe the following antenna placement considerations: 1. BEST Reception can be achieved by placing the antenna outside on the roof. The antenna is waterproof. This position will afford the best view of the sky for best reception.
4. Turn the Tuner on and listen for audio. If no audio is heard, aim the antenna in different directions until audio output is heard. This is the desired antenna aiming position. 5. After determining the optimum antenna aiming position, turn the Tuner off, disconnect the power adapter from the wall outlet receptacle, and disconnect the antenna cable. 6. Plan the routing of the antenna cable to the Tuner. Be sure you avoid any obstructions that could crimp, kink, or twist the cable.
1. Make sure that the Tuner is properly connected and that its antenna is oriented to receive the SIRIUS satellite signal. 2. Press the POWER button to turn the Tuner on. After displaying the SIRIUS logo, the Tuner will update all the SIRIUS channels. The display will read “UPDATING CHANNELS” on the top line and “X% Completed” (0%-20%40%-60%-80%-100%) on the bottom line until the update completes. Note: Don’t push any buttons or perform any operations until updating has been completed. 3.
Operation Display Screen Information The display screen of the Polk Audio Design’s SR-H1000 Home Tuner provides information about the operation of the receiver, such as the currently tuned channel, song or show being played, artist name, time and other information. This screen is referred to as the Default display screen in this manual. Figure 1 identifies the information displayed when listening to a typical broadcast.
DISP (Display) Button Pressing and releasing the DISP button from the Default display screen toggles between the artist name/song title and large character displayed text. The large character format will change the character size and cause the field to scroll from right to left. This feature is useful when viewing the display screen from a distance. Note that the displayed text will scroll only if the length of the artist or title cannot be viewed in its entirety.
Search Modes (Category, Channel, Artist, Song Title) The Polk Audio Design’s SIRIUS Home Tuner has four ways to search for and select music: by category, by channel, by artist, and by song title. Each search method is discussed in the sections which follow. Searching Categories If you want to browse different entertainment categories, push either Category ( ) button to activate the category search screen. 1. Use the Category buttons ( ) to scroll through the music and entertainment categories. 2.

The receiver then continuously searches all the SIRIUS channels and alerts you when a match to a saved program is being played.
