Overview
The SIRIUS Echo Signal Repeater System lets you
enjoy SIRIUS radio throughout your home without
the need to run antenna wires. If you have purchased
this product, it is assumed that you are already using
the SIRIUS Echo Signal Repeater System (model
SIR-WRS1). Please consult your SIR-WRS1 manual
for a more detailed overview of the system.
You can operate multiple SIRIUS radios in differ-
ent rooms throughout your home, by connecting
each SIRIUS radio to an Echo Antenna. The Echo
Antenna discreetly connects to any SIRIUS radio
and allows you to conveniently locate that SIRIUS
radio anywhere in your home, even in interior rooms,
without restrictions due to antenna placement or
antenna cable length, and without the need to run
wires through your home. The system is designed
to work up to a distance of 75 feet between the Echo
Transmitter and each Echo Antenna, passing the
signal through walls and floors, in a typical wood
frame and drywall construction home found in North
America.

SIRIUS Echo Antenna
Description
The Echo Antenna connects to a SIRIUS radio or the
SIRIUS radio dock and receives the wireless signal
from the Echo Transmitter. It can be placed on a flat
surface or wall mounted vertically using two screws
and the mounting slots on the base of the unit.
The Echo Antenna comes with a 4 feet cable with
which it connects to the SIRIUS radio. It has a green
LED on the front, labeled "POWER". It also has a
black plastic antenna on the side that can swivel up
and down.
The “POWER” LED lights up when the unit is properly
connected to the SIRIUS radio and the SIRIUS radio
itself is turned on. For proper operation of the Echo
Antenna, this LED needs to be lit up. The black plas-
tic antenna on the side needs to be swiveled up in an
upright vertical position, so that it is pointing straight
up, regardless if the unit is placed on a flat surface or
mounted to a wall.

cal position, so that it is pointing straight up.

ER” LED on the front of the Echo Antenna is lit up.

Extra Installation Tips
• Your Echo Antenna may be placed indoors up to 75
feet away from the Echo Transmitter.
• There should at least be a separation of 10 feet be-
tween your Echo Transmitter and Echo Antenna
• The Echo Antenna should be placed as high as pos-
sible above obstacles for best reception.
• The Echo Antenna may be wall mounted using
screws. The unit has wall mount screw spacing of 1
½ inches apart. Insert the screws into the wall with
approximately ¼” distance from the wall. Place the
back of the unit over the heads of the screws and
pull down slightly to engage the slot lock. To re-
move the unit from the wall, slide directly up the
wall and pull out and off the screw heads. The unit
can be rotated 90 degrees when a wall mount con-
figuration is desired
Using the SIRIUS Echo Antenna
When the Echo Antenna has been installed, turn on
the SIRIUS radio and check the Antenna Aiming/
Signal Strength display to verify the SIRIUS signal
strength. If the SIRIUS signal strength is good, and
the audio from the SIRIUS radio is good, the system is
working properly. If the SIRIUS signal strength is not
good, or the audio from your SIRIUS radio is either
absent or intermittent, then the system installation
needs to be fine tuned. Please consult the trouble
shooting section in the SIRIUS Echo Signal Repeater
System (SIR-WRS1) user’s manual.
