FIG. 1 DAS-SIRIUS Satellite Radio Tuner Module

 The DAS-SIRIUS Tuner Module can be used with both Mi-Series and Tango Audio Controllers.

 All Mi-Series and Tango Audio Controllers come equipped with a DAS-AMFM AM/FM Tuner

Module. Since Mi-Series and Tango Audio Controllers support 2 Tuner Modules in any combination, the DAS-SIRIUS Module can either be installed in addition to the DAS-AMFM Module, or the DAS-AMFM Module can be removed to allow 2 DAS-SIRIUS Modules.

 Each Tuner Module uses 1 source input on the Audio Controller.

DAS-SIRIUS Sirius Satellite Radio Tuner Module

DAS-SIRIUS Tuner Module

Installation

Installing/removing Tuner Modules requires removing the cover from the Audio Controller, removing the Tuner Option cover plate from the rear panel of the Controller, installing the Tuner Module, and setting Jumpers on both the Tuner Module to specify each Tuner as either TUNER 1 or TUNER 2, and on the rear board pin-bus of the Audio Controller to enable/disable Tuner 1 and 2.

Disconnect all power sources before opening the chassis. Failure to disconnect power before performing this installation may cause injury or death.

FIG. 2 provides orientation for the various internal components that must be accessed to install the Tuner and set the Jumpers.

Discharge all static electricity from your body before touching any components of the Tuner Modules or the Audio Controller. Failure to do so may lead to permanent damage to the Tuner or Controller.

Setting the Jumpers

While Mi-Series and Tango Audio Controllers support 2 Tuner Modules in any combination, this document describes installing the DAS-SIRIUS Tuner Module into Slot 1 (as TUNER 2), leaving the DAS-AMFM Tuner Module in Slot 2 (as TUNER 1).

Because of the location of the Jumpers in the Controller and on the Tuner Module, it may be easier to make all jumper settings before installing the Tuner Module in the Controller.

DAS-SIRIUS Tuner Module Jumper Settings (Standard Installation)

There are 2 sets of Jumpers on the DAS-SIRIUS Tuner Module (FIG. 6). These must be set to differentiate Tuner 1from Tuner 2 in the Controller.

Since Mi-Series and Tango Audio Controllers are shipped with a DAS-AMFM Tuner Module pre-installed in Slot 2 (as Tuner 1), the DAS-SIRIUS Tuner Module, is typically installed in Slot 1(as Tuner 2).

FIG. 8 Tuner Module - Tuner 2 Jumper Configuration

Changing the Jumper Settings on the DAS-AMFM Tuner Module

By default, a DAS-AMFM Tuner Module is installed in Slot 2. There are jumpers on the DAS-AMFM Tuner Module that differentiate Tuner 1 from Tuner 2 in the Controller. By default, DAS-AMFM Tuner Modules are set to the single tuner configuration.

When adding the DAS-SIRIUS Tuner Module to the Controller, it is necessary to change the jumper settings on the pre-installed DAS-AMFM Tuner Module, to allow a second Tuner.

The jumpers on the DAS-AMFM Tuner Module (FIG. 9) must be set to differentiate Tuner 1from Tuner 2 in the Controller.

Examine the configuration of the jumpers located on the Tuner Modules, to the right of the 20-pin ribbon cable connector (as seen when viewing the installed modules from the front of the controller).

 Note that there are two rows of 5 pins as shown in FIG. 9.

 With only a single tuner, all pins are jumpered.

Installing the DAS-SIRIUS Tuner Module

The DAS-SIRIUS Tuner is typically installed into Slot 1 (see FIG. 2):

1. Remove the cover from the Audio Controller chassis.

2. Remove the cover plate (labelled “Tuner Option”) on the rear panel (FIG. 10) to expose Slot 1.

FIG. 10 Rear Panel - Tuner Slots 1 and 2

3. Carefully insert the DAS-SIRIUS Tuner Module into the Controller (electronics facing up), and replace

Be careful not to damage the white ribbon cable on the top of the Tuner Module.

 The Rear Panel connector at the end of the Tuner Ribbon Cable is connected to the Controller’s rear

board pin-bus (see FIG. 2).

 Keep the Tuner Ribbon Cable oriented so that the red stripe is always on top, in order to preserve

the orientation of the pins on the Tuner connectors. The red stripe on the ribbon cable indicates Pin 1 (FIG. 11):

4. Connect the Slot 1 connector on the ribbon cable to the 20-pin Tuner Ribbon Cable connector on the

DAS-SIRIUS Module (FIG. 12).

Verify that all of the 20-pin connectors of the Tuner Ribbon Cable are securely plugged into their respective boards.

Tuner Ribbon Cable

While it is recommended that you use the Slot 2 connector on the ribbon cable to connect the Tuner installed in Slot 2 (in this case, the DAS-AMFM Tuner), the ribbon cable itself does not determine which Tuner is Tuner 1 and Tuner 2. This determination is set by the jumper settings on each Tuner Module (see “Tuner 1 Jumper Settings” and “Tuner 2 Jumper Settings” above. Therefore, it is not required that the connections indicated in FIG. 10 are followed exactly, as long as the Tuner Jumper Settings are set correctly for each installed Tuner Module.

The Controller should only be powered back on once all Tuners are installed and the cover is replaced on the chassis.

Removing Tuner Modules

In some cases it is necessary to remove the existing Tuner Module, in order to install a different Tuner. Since each Tuner Module uses 1 source input on the Audio Controller, you may choose to use the source input for other purposes.

1. Remove the cover from the Audio Controller.

2. Carefully remove the ribbon cable from the Tuner Module.

3. Remove the screws from the Tuner Module cover plate (on the Controller’s rear panel) and carefully slide

the Tuner Module out of the chassis.

4. To remove TUNER 1, place the TUNER 1 Audio Controller jumpers in the OFF position (FIG. 13).

a. Via the programming menus via the front of the Controller, select Setup\SIRIUS. b. Select Status. In this menu, you can check the following:

• ANT: Antenna Status

• ACT: Activation Status

• SAT: Satellite Signal

• TER: Terrestrial Signal

c. Select "SAT" to determine the Satellite Signal Strength (None, Wea k or Good). d. Ensure the signal strength is at a minimum of "weak". Adjustments may need to be made to the

position of the Antenna in order to get a better signal.

Activating Your SIRIUS Subscription

SIRIUS Satellite Radio is a subscription service. In order to use your DAS-SIRIUS module, you will have to activate your SIRIUS subscription.

Until you have activated your subscription, you will only be able to tune to channels 0 and 184.

1. Once you have installed the DAS-SIRIUS module, you can activate your SIRIUS subscription by phone:

Call 1.888.539.SIRIUS (7474).

2. You will be asked for a “Sirius ID”. This ID can be found in several places:

 If using a Matrix LCD keypad, select channel "0" to display the Sirius ID.

 If using either a Metreau or Matrix tactile keypad with the optional numeric keypad, select channel

"0". The Sirius ID will be displayed on the LCD display on the front of the Controller.

 If using either a Metreau or Matrix tactile keypad without the optional numeric keypad, access the

programming menus via the front of the Controller by pressing the centre Nav button on the Controller:

Select Setup\SIRIUS, then select ID from the SIRIUS menu, and the SIRIUS ID will be displayed.

SIRIUS - Favorites

Favorites is a standard functionality of the Matrix Controller and is available for all sources.

One minute after an “ALL OFF” has been performed, or 10 Minutes after every zone/room has been turned off, the controller will send a Power OFF command to all sources.

The first time a source is turned on in any room (after a system power off), if a favorite has been set for that room and that source, the favorite station/channel will begin playing.

For example: A “favorite” channel of “7” is set in Room 1 for the SIRIUS source type. If Room 1 is the first room to be turned ON after a system OFF, Channel 7 will begin playing (whether it was the last channel played or not.

• Channel Map Updates: “Updating Channels”

• Invalid Channel: “Invalid Channel”

• Unsubscribed Channel: “CALL 888-539-SIRIUS TO SUBSCRIBE”

 When first powering ON the Controller, and the user selects the SIRIUS source, the Initializing

SIRIUS message is displayed, until the signal is detected.

 Channel in Tuning is displayed until the channel is tuned, then the standard SIRIUS metadata is

displayed.

When initially powering ON the Controller, the display of metadata on the LCD Keypad may be slower until it is buffered by the SIRIUS module. Since the Controller is always ON, therefore, the SIRIUS module is always on, so this delay is only noticeable when first installing the Matrix Distributed Audio system.

SIRIUS Messages

Invalid Channels will be automatically skipped when navigating channels via CH+/-.
