Installation

SIRIUS suggests professional installation of this product in your vehicle. Professional installation provides an experienced technician to install this product in your vehicle, advice for selecting a suitable mounting location for the tuner and DCU, installation of the antennas and infrared receiver, and routing and connecting all the necessary wires and cables.

Configuration Considerations

Disp lay Contr ol U nit

The SCV1 includes a Display Control Unit (DCU) which provides an interface to control the SIRIUS A/V tuner. The DCU can tune and display the SIRIUS radio channels, and can also control the SIRIUS Backseat TV and change TV channels, as well as displaying TV programming information.

Audi o Connect ion to the Ve hicl e Headuni t

There are two options for connecting the SIRIUS audio output to your vehicle’s headunit:

Direct connection using an audio cable. An audio cable with RCA-type connectors

• is included for vehicles where the headunit has an auxiliary audio input. This option provides the best possible audio quality.

Connection using the FM Direct Adapter (FMDA). If your vehicle’s headunit does

• not have an auxiliary audio input, you must use the provided FMDA instead. The FMDA installs in-line with the FM antenna input to the vehicle headunit. When you turn on the SIRIUS radio, the FM antenna input to your vehicle’s headunit is tem-

porarily redirected away from the vehicle radio. The SIRIUS audio is then sent via the FM antenna cable to the headunit. By setting the SIRIUS tuner and your vehicle headunit to the same FM channel, you can hear the SIRIUS radio audio. Note that the FMDA does not affect the SIRIUS Backseat TV reception which is available whether or not you are listening to SIRIUS radio broadcasts.

Wiring Diagrams

Figures 1, 2, and 3 show several possible wiring diagrams:

Figure 1 depicts the wiring when the DCU is used, and the audio is connected via

• a cable to the AUX input of the headunit

Figure 2 depicts the wiring when the DCU is used, and the FMDA is used for the

• audio input to the headunit

The FMDA must be used if the vehicle’s headunit does not have a direct audio connection.
