Aiming your XM Home Antenna
If the SKYFi display says
NO SIGNAL,
the antenna needs to be repositioned. In
addition, even if you are receiving the XM
signal, it is recommended that you optimize
the position of your XM Antenna as
described in this section enabling you to
receive the strongest possible signal and
consistent, mute-free reception.
Your SKYFi display has two different
signal-strength indicators which will help
you optimize the antenna
s position.
Basic signal-strength indicator
Your SKYFi Receiver has a basic signal-
strength indicator visible at the top of the
display screen during normal listening
(figure 3). It has from zero to three vertical
bars; three bars represent the strongest signal.
Antenna Aiming signal-strength indicator
A higher-resolution signal-strength indicator
screen is available to allow you to optimally
aim your XM Antenna. To access and use
this screen:
1. Press the menu button on the SKYFi
Receiver and select the
Antenna
Aiming
option. A screen similar to
figure 4 will appear.
2. Adjust the antenna location until the
maximum number of
SATELLITE
bars
is filled in. SKYFi will receive programming as
long as either the satellite or terrestrial
signal has two bars filled in; selecting a
position with the maximum number of
SATELLITE
bars displayed will ensure a
consistently strong signal.
