Adjustments
To make sure the antenna is level please make the
adjustments to the antenna arm and the antenna radome.
You will have to loosen the Phillips screws to rotate and
adjust. Once the adjustment has been made to the desired
position, tighten the Phillips screw. Be careful not to over
tighten. We recommend that you make the adjustments,
if needed, to each area in the order that is shown below.
Cable Installation
At this point you are ready to attach the RG6 coaxial cable
(sold separately). Take either end of cable and insert it
through the rubber boot then screw the connector onto
the bottom of the antenna as shown below. Screw the
connector on by hand as far as it can go. It is not necessary
to use any special tools for this.
Once the cable is secured
onto the antenna, slide
the rubber onto the
antenna as shown.
For improved wire
management, the
coaxial cable can be
inserted into a notch
near the bottom of
mounting bracket.
At this point, please determine the best way to route the
rest of the cable into your home to the XM home receiver
or XM Plug & Play system.
If additional cable length is required an in-line amplifer
(XMAMP18) is needed for each additional 100 feet of
RG6 coaxial cable.
