4. Turn the Tuner on and listen for audio. If no audio is heard, aim the antenna in  
different directions until audio output is heard. This is the desired antenna aiming  
position.  
5. After determining the optimum antenna aiming position, turn the Tuner off,  
disconnect the power adapter from the wall outlet receptacle, and disconnect the  
antenna cable.  
6. Plan the routing of the antenna cable to the Tuner. Be sure you avoid any  
obstructions that could crimp, kink, or twist the cable. Use protective grommets  
wherever rough openings are encountered.  
Note: Do not cut the antenna cable. Do not cut the antenna cable and  
attempt to splice it or attach alternative connectors or cable. The cable and  
connectors used in your SR-H1000 are specifically chosen and attached at  
the factory to ensure that they will work with Sirius’s unique frequency  
band. Your High-Gain Home Antenna comes with 20-feet of cable. If that  
is not sufficient to locate the antenna where there is a strong signal, please  
see the section below on extension Cables.  
7. If the antenna is mounted outside, route the cable from the antenna position to the  
interior of the home, working the cable through the basement, under a window sill,  
etc., and make adjustments and take up slack whenever necessary.  
8. Plug the antenna cable into the ANTENNA connector on the back of the Receiver.  
9. Plug the tuner into a 110VAC wall receptacle. The front panel STANDBY LED  
will light red.  
10. You are now ready to activate and enjoy SIRIUS programming within your home.  
Testing Antenna Signal Strength  
The stronger the signal strength, the less likely it is that you will experience  
an interruption of the audio. In the menu options of the Tuner, there is an antenna  
aiming display which shows two bar graphs indicating signal strength. This can be a  
useful tool for positioning the antenna in an optimal location for maximum signal  
reception.

I. Accessories  
A. Extension Cables:  
Your SIRIUS Indoor/Outdoor Antenna comes with 21-feet  
of cable. If that is not sufficient to locate the antenna where  
there is a strong signal, purchase an extension such as the  
SIRIUS 50’ Extension Cable (p/n 14230) or SIRIUS 20’  
Extension Cable (p/n 14130) from a local or on-line  
Authorized SIRIUS Retailer. Up to two 50’ extensions can  
be used together for a total of 121-feet of cable. The 20’  
extension cable should not be extended further.  
Both extension cables are weather resistant and have built in  
signal amplifiers to match the input gain with the Polk Audio  
Designs SR-H1000 tuner.  
B. Prewire installation:  
Prewire installation can be accomplished by using the SIRIUS 50’ Extension  
Cable (p/n 14230) or SIRIUS 20’ Extension Cable (p/n 14130) to route from  
the Tuner location to the desired antenna location. The Antenna that comes  
with your SR-H1000 tuner has 21-feet of cable and up to two 50’ extension  
cables can be used for a total antenna cable length of 121-feet. (seems  
redundant)  
For installations that require cables longer than 120-feet, there are a number of  
distribution systems available from Directed and others.  
(these pages all link to our store & will also to other e-tailers – would rather  
link there than to Sirius web store).

C. Outdoor Antenna:  
The weatherproof outdoor SIRIUS antenna provides high-  
quality signal to your home or commercial installations. The  
antenna and mast feature a durable UV weather coating, and  
can be mounted on a mast (including existing satellite TV dish  
pole), on the roof, or on the wall. This antenna is great for  
locations where reception is blocked by low-lying obstructions

D. Antenna Repeater  
Enjoy SIRIUS radio throughout your home  
without the need to run antenna wires. SIRIUS  
Echo Signal Repeater system allows you to  
locate the SIRIUS antenna where it has be best  
view of the sky, and wirelessly redirect the  
signal to the rest of the house. Connect the  
SIRIUS antenna to the Echo transmitter and use  
one or multiple Echo antennas to receive the  
signal at the desired locations through-out the  
house. Broadcasts in the 900mHz band.

E. Satellite TV distribution system  
If you have satellite TV (DirecTV or Dish Network),  
this handy combiner/splitter package from SIRIUS (p/n  
14255) runs both signals into your house using a single  
cable, simplifying your installation. The kit comes with  
an outdoor, weatherproof SIRIUS antenna with F-  
connector and a short F- to SMB adapter harness. You  
will need to make your own RG6/F cabling, or buy pre-  
made RG6/F cables to connect the SIRIUS antenna to  
the combiner, and to run from the splitter to the adapter  
harness.  
F. CATV distribution system:  
The SIRIUS CATV Home Distribution  
Kit (p/n 14250) lets you send a SIRIUS  
satellite radio signal to any room in your  
home with a cable TV outlet. The kit  
includes an all-weather outdoor antenna,  
2 diplexer signal splitters, and the  
necessary adapter to supply signal  
to a SIRIUS satellite radio.As with the  
Satellite TV Distribution System above,  
RG6/F cabling must be added to  
complete the antenna/combiner  
installation.

II. 12 Volt Trigger:  
The 12V Trigger Input allows your 12V-trigger-capable preamp or receiver to force the  
SR-H1000 Tuner to go from STANDBY mode (power button illuminated, front panel  
display off) into ON mode (power button not illuminated, front panel display on) or vice  
versa without the need to press the POWER button. To disable the 12V Trigger Input  
feature, simply do not connect anything to the 12V Trigger Input jack on the rear panel of  
the Tuner. To enable this feature, connect a 1/8" mono plug cable (tip +/ barrel - ) from  
your preamp or receiver's 12V Trigger Output to your SR-H1000 Tuner's 12V Trigger  
Input jack on the rear panel. So long as the Tuner stays plugged into an active AC outlet,  
your SR-H1000 Tuner is ready to respond to power mode changes sent from your preamp  
or receiver.

III. Control features:  
The SR-H1000 has two unique ports on the rear panel that allow the tuner to control a  
2nd tuner and allow control systems to operate the SR-H1000 and the 2nd tuner*.  
These ports are labeled as RS-232 and SSP.  
SSP port:  
The SSP port is a connection for a 2nd tuner to be operated by the SR-H1000 in a similar  
manor to how a “Sirius Ready” receiver operates an outboard Sirius tuner. The SCH1  
Sirius Connect Home Tuner (pictured below) is the tuner to be used to obtain the 2nd  
tuner source.  
Alternatively, the second tuner can be a Dock and Play radio docked in the SIRIUS  
Universal Home Connect dock (p/n SUHC1). The dock is similar to the universal home  
dock but connects to the host A/V system with SIRIUS SSP cable. This allows use of a  
transportable radio for the second tuner source (provided it has the SIRIUS Universal  
Docking Connector) that can also be taken out of the home and used in a vehicle or other  
applications.  
Model#: SC-H1  
Sportster 5 in SUHC1 dock  
RS-232 Overview:  
The RS-232 port allows communication with the SR-H1000. All commands that are  
present on the front panel or the remote control of the SR-H1000 are available via the  
RS-232 port. In addition, the display data that is shown on the LCD display (or video  
output) is available over the RS-232 port.  
Entering RS232 Operation mode  
1) You must use a Null-Modem cable to connect to the RS-232 port.  
2) Place the SR-H1000 into "Pass-through" mode by  
a) Enter the Menu and select Sirius ID  
b) Press BAND, DISPLAY, then press and hold 6 (you will see the diagnostic  
page)  
c) Press BAND  
SR-H1000 CI Guide

The tuner will only stay in "Pass-through" mode until the power is cycled, a power cycle  
will exit this mode.  
When the tuner is in RS232 Operation mode, the front panel controls & display are  
disabled and only communication over the RS-232 interface is possible.  
If the control system you are working with (Crestron, Niles, AMX, Russound, etc) has  
firmware with the Sirius SSP protocol (the firmware that enables a device to be “Sirius  
Ready”) then it can control the SR-H1000 with the same command sets. If the  
manufacturer of the control system you are using has not made arrangements with Sirius  
to provide the SSP protocol, they will need to contact Sirius directly and sign a non-  
disclosure agreement.
