Installing TriplePlay

Antex Electronics strongly recommends th at the SRX-3 TriplePlay unit and its antenna be installed by a professional installer. Brief instructions are presented here for reference purposes only.

Antenna installation should be in accordance with Article 810 of NEC. Power requirements for the TripleP lay are 100-140VAC, 50-60Hz, 50 Watts.

Parts List

Before installing your SRX-3 TriplePlay, make sure you have all the parts listed below:

• SRX-3 TriplePlay u nit

• Antenna

• Remote control

Positioning the Antenna

Prior to mounting the antenna or finding a permanent home for your SRX-3 TriplePlay, you first want to validate the position of the antenna.

1. Power on TriplePlay to m ake sure the unit h a s pow er .

You should see a startup screen with A ntex and SIRIUS logos, followed by the main display (similar to tha t shown Figure 4 on page 7).

2. Power off TriplePlay, and then c onn ec t the audio cables, IR,

and RS232 control interfaces to the other components in your audio system.

3. Using RG58U, 50 Ohm coaxial cable, connect the antenna to

TriplePlay.

4. Position the anten na outdoors within 30 f eet of the TriplePlay

unit (or within 100 feet if you are using an inline amplifier).

• Power cord

• RCA audio cables (3)

Page 4

5. Position the flat receiving dish straight up and with an unobstructed view to the SIRIUS satellites— that is, an unobstructed view tow ard the “X” Figure 1.

Figure 1 Your antenna must hav e an unobstructed path to the satellites (marked by the ”X” on the map).

6. Power on your soun d system and turn the amplifier to a low volume.

7. Power on TriplePlay and tune to ch annel 184, a free preview channel. Press 1-8- 4 on the front panel NUMERIC buttons.

If the system is working, you will hear SIRIUS progr a mming on this channel and can proceed t o S tep 8.

If the antenna does not have a clear path to the sa tellites, TriplePlay’s fron t pa nel display will read “ Acquiring Signal” or “Antenna Not Connected.” Reposition the antenna until you hear music playing.

8. Finish installing T r iplePlay. a) Mount the antenna in its permanent location. Follow the

instructions in the section, “Mounting the Antenna.”

b) House TriplePlay in its permanent location. Follow the

instructions in the section, “Housing TriplePlay,” starting on page 5.

c) Activate the unit following the instructions on pa ge 5.

Mounting the Antenna

The antenna, as shown in Figure 2, must be mounted outdoors within 30 feet of the TriplePlay unit (or within 100 f eet when using an inline amplif ier ) . Its versatile mount allows it to be clamped to various objects or fastened directly to a rigid structure. For example, the antenna can be mounted to a wall or eave, screwed directly into the roof, or “mast mounted” to a plumbing vent pipe or other antenna mast such as the support post of a satellite TV dish.

Figure 2 Point the antenna’s flat surface straight up.

The flat surface of the antenna’s receiving dish should be installed to point straight up and have an unobstructed path (view) between it and the SIRIUS satellites—that is, the “X” in Figure 1. The path between you r antenna and the SIRIUS satellites depends on your location in the U.S.

The best location for th e antenna depends on where you live, the orientation of your home, and the locations of any obstructions that could prevent the satellite signal from reaching the antenna. The location of the “X” on the map in Figure 1 must be visible to the antenna. Table 1 defines the unobstructed view needed between your anten na and the satellites.

Before mounting the antenna, hold the antenna in the desired mounting location w ith the TriplePlay unit s et up and powered on to make sure that th e s ystem works with the anten na in that location.

Page 5

TriplePlay Multizone Satellite Audio Receiver 5

Table 1 Antenna mounting instructions.

In this section… Mount the antenna with an unobstructed view:

1 East or Northeast 2 North or Northeast 3 North or Northwest 4 West or Northwest 5 Straight up

When the antenna is secu rely mounted with a clear view up, run the RG58U 50 ohms coaxial cable to TriplePlay unit. Screw the cable connector to th e a ntenna “finger tight” (do not over tighten with a wrench) and secure the antenna c a ble inside the arm of the antenna.

Housing TriplePlay

House the TriplePlay unit in a component rack or other suitable location that provides adequate ven tila tion. The maximum

ambient temperature should never exceed 120 degrees Fahrenheit.

After mounting the a ntenna, connect the audio cables (or optional TOSLINK), IR, and RS232 c ontrol interfaces to the other components in the sys tem. Turn the volume control of a m plifiers to a low level, then con nect the power cable to the T r iplePlay unit and power it on. A startup screen with Antex and SIRIUS logos will appear briefly, followed by the defa ult display (see Figure 4 on page 7).

Tune to channel 184, a free preview c hannel, by pressing 1-8-4 on the front panel NU MERIC buttons. If the sy s tem is working, you will hear SIRIUS programming and can proceed to activating the unit. If the front panel display reads “Acquiring Signal” or “Antenna Not Connected,” reposition the antenna until you hear music playing.

Activating TriplePlay

After the channel 184 verifica tion test, you must activate your SRX-3 TriplePlay to ac c ess all SIRIUS channels. T o do s o you must first obtain the SIRIUS ID numbers of your unit. The unit contains three ID numbers that are used to activate each of the three independent tuners (hereafter referred to as “zones”).
