Introduction
SIRIUS
®
Satellite Radio is a new and exciting audio experience on your
radio dial; it provides you with digital audio programming at the touch of
a button. By using two geostationary satellites, SIRIUS
®
Radio provides
digital quality sound, with a choice of 100 channels of diverse program-
ming, including music, news, history, sports, and talk.
To make this system available to the motoring public, Audiovox has
engineered a state-of-the-art SIRIUS
®
Satellite Radio System, consist-
ing of a Satellite Antenna (purchased separately), a Satellite Radio Re-
ceiver Unit (RRU), a Satellite Radio FM Switching Box, a Satellite System
Control Unit (SCU) and an optional wireless remote control. By using the
FM section of any car stereo system, the RF signal information is de-
modulated and produces the audio output to your existing stereo sys-
tem speakers. Since SIRIUS
®
Satellite Radio will operate through the
FM stereo system, adjustment of the audio functions (volume, tone,
balance, etc.) is made by using the controls on the car radio, while
selection of the desired audio channel is made using the Satellite Sys-
tem Control Unit (SCU).
How the System Operates
Control of system functions is achieved by the wired SCU, which can be
conveniently mounted to the dashboard in a number of configurations. In
addition, an optional wireless remote (Audiovox P/N SAT-RC) to control
SCU functions is also available. The SIRIUS
®
Satellite Radio signals
are received by the antenna and are routed to the RRU, whose RF output
is supplied to the FM Switching Box.
