Troubleshooting SIRCL1 and SIRCL2
Problem:
The display says 'linking' or 'acquiring' and has lim-
ited channel access.
Solution:
1. Unplug the CeNET cable or power connection, if
DSC920S is used, from the satellite receiver for at
least 1 hour.
2. Plug back in CeNET cable or power connection, if
DSC920S is used, into the satellite receiver.
3. Turn On the source unit and select “SIRIUS” or
DSC920S and allow the satellite receiver to down-
load the critical updates that were either missed or
interrupted during the transmission. The satellite
antenna needs to have an unobstructed view to the
sky and the power must not be interrupted. The
downloading process can take from a minute to
several minutes.
4. When the data transfer is complete, the satellite
receiver will be returned to its normal operation.
Problem:
The satellite receiver has limited channel access
when in use.
Solution:
1. Unplug the CeNET cable or power connection, if
DSC920S is used, from the satellite receiver for at
least 1 hour.
2. Plug back in CeNET cable or power connection, if
DSC920S is used, into the satellite receiver.
3. Turn On the source unit and select “SIRIUS” or
DSC920S and allow the satellite receiver to down-
load the critical updates that were either missed or
interrupted during the transmission. The satellite

sky and the power must not be interrupted. The
downloading process can take from a minute to
several minutes.
4. When the data transfer is complete, the satellite
receiver will be returned to its normal operation.
Both of these issues are the result of a missed or
interrupted data transfer. Since there is no set
schedule for the satellite updates, it is recommend
to explain and demonstrate to the consumer how to
reset their satellite receiver. You may also have to
ask Sirius to retransmit the channel update to your
receiver.
