XM Antenna
Connect the included XM antenna for XM recep-
tion to the back panel of the XM module. The
antenna comes with 20 feet of cable. If this
length is not sufficient, there are aftermarket
antenna kits available for custom lengths.
Position the antenna near a south-facing window
to receive the best signal from a satellite or ter-
restrial signal.
The antenna may also be attached to an exter-
nal wall by sliding the slots on the back of the
antenna onto four screws mounted on an exteri-
or wall. Establish the best receiving position for
the antenna before attaching it to the wall.
XM Signal Strength Mode
To test the XM reception, turn the unit on. When
the XM radio is powered for the first time, the
XM service will start playing XM Channel 1, a
preview/promotional channel. Verify that Channel
1 is playing by viewing the channel number on
the keypad display. Enter Signal Strength Mode
by pressing and holding the Stop button on the
UNO-S2 keypad. The display shows one of the
following:
GOOD SIGNAL Signal strength good
MARGINAL SIG Signal strength marginal
POOR SIGNAL Signal strength poor
NO SIGNAL Loss of signal
Adjust the antenna until GOOD SIGNAL is dis-
played. Press Stop to exit Signal Strength Mode.
