SIRIUS Echo Signal Repeater System
Troubleshooting
This section lists several common problems and suggested solutions. If, after trying the suggested solutions
listed here, you are still unable to resolve the problem you’re having with your SIRIUS Echo Signal Repeater
System, contact your dealer or retailer for more help.
Problem Suggested Solution (s)
SIRIUS signal strength
is zero to one bar
OR
Audio from the SIRIUS
radio sounds like it has
an echo
1 Adjust the SIRIUS home antenna until it receives adequate signal from the
SIRIUS satellites. Temporarily connect the SIRIUS radio directly to the SIRIUS
home antenna by disconnecting the Echo Antenna from the SIRIUS radio,
disconnecting the SIRIUS home antenna from the Echo Transmitter, and con-
necting the SIRIUS home antenna directly to the SIRIUS radio or home dock.
Using the Antenna Aiming or Signal Strength display of your SIRIUS radio,
aim the SIRIUS home antenna to obtain at least six bars of SAT and/or TER
signal strength. (Refer to the instruction manual of your SIRIUS radio for more
information on using the Antenna Aiming/Signal Strength display, and the
SIRIUS home antenna installation manual for more information on aiming the
antenna).
Reconnect the SIRIUS home antenna and the AC Adapter to the Echo Trans-
mitter. Plug in the AC Adapter to a standard 110 volt AC outlet. Verify that all
3 green LEDs on the front of the Echo Transmitter are lit. Especially, if the
‘SIGNAL” LED on the front of the Echo Transmitter is lit, then the SIRIUS home
antenna is receiving a usable level of SIRIUS signal that the Echo Transmit-
ter can broadcast around the home. If it is not, then adjust the SIRIUS home
antenna until the “SIGNAL” LED on the Echo Transmitter lights up
