DT22 INSTALLATION MANUAL
SIRIUS Satellite Antenna
Positioning the Sirius Antenna
Prior to mounting the antenna or finding a permanent home for your DT22, you first want to
validate the position of the antenna.
1. Power on DT22 to make sure the SIRIUS module has power.
You should see a startup screen with the ELAN logo, followed by the main display.
2. Power off DT22, and then connect the audio cables, IR, and RS232 control interfaces to the other components
in your audio system.
3. Align the Antenna as follows:
For Indoor installation on a flat surface:
a) Set antenna on its base on a flat horizontal surface.
b) Turn the base of the antenna so that the SIRIUS logo is facing to the northwest if you are in the eastern
half of the U.S. and to the north/northeast if you are in the western half.
Note: It will help to imagine that the SIRIUS satellites are in the sky above northern Minnesota.
That’s the optimal direction in which you need to aim the antenna.
c) Use the “Signal Strength” screen, as described on page 74, to optimize antenna tilt angle and position.
d) If necessary, experiment with different locations near a north-facing window or outside.
