Echo Transmitter Installation

When you have confirmed that the SIRIUS home

antenna is aimed properly, and has a good SIRIUS

signal, you are ready to install the Echo Transmitter.

The location of the Echo Transmitter is important

for getting the best performance out of your SIRIUS

Echo Signal Repeater System. Avoid locating the

Echo Transmitter near any of the following items

which could cause degradation of the wireless

signal:

- Microwave Ovens

- Electric Ranges

- Window Air Conditioners

- Large Appliances

- Cordless phones

- Electrical Fuse or Breaker Panels

- Other wireless transmitters such as those for

Wireless Video or Wireless Headphones or the

SIRIUS Tuner in the SIRIUS Conductor System.

Consider where you will be using the Echo

Antenna(s). Locate the Echo Transmitter within 75

feet of the farthest Echo Antenna, but no closer than

10 feet to the closest Echo Antenna. For multi-story

homes, you can place the Echo Transmitter and

Echo Antennas in different floors.

To install the Echo Transmitter,

1 Connect the cable from the SIRIUS home an-

tenna to the antenna connector on the rear of

the Echo Transmitter.

2 Connect the AC Adapter to the power connec-

tion on the rear of the Echo Transmitter, and

plug the AC Adapter in to a standard 110 volt AC

outlet.

3 Raise the black plastic antenna to an upright

vertical position, so that it is pointing straight

up.

4 Ensure that all the 3 LEDs on the front of the

Echo Transmitter are lit up.

This completes the Echo Transmitter installation.
