5. Ghid de instalare

Follow these steps carefully for a successful installation of your VAIS Technology SiriusXM adapter. Professional installation is recommended if you are not comfortable with automotive electrical work.

Image: Four-step visual guide for installation: 1. Connect OBD II Connector, 2. Connect GSR to Factory USB Port, 3. Install Antenna on the Roof, 4. Mount Everything Behind the Panels.

1. Connect OBD II Connector:

   Locate your vehicle's OBD II port, typically found under the dashboard on the driver's side. Connect the provided OBD II connector to this port. This connection supplies power to the VAIS adapter.
2. Connect GSR to Factory USB Port:

   Identify the factory USB data port in your vehicle's dashboard or center console. Route and insert the provided USB-A or USB-C cable from the VAIS adapter into this port. This connection is crucial for sending SiriusXM data to your vehicle's radio system.

3. Instalați antena pe acoperiș:

   For optimal SiriusXM Satellite Radio reception, the antenna must be mounted on the highest point of the vehicle's roof. Ensure it is mounted outside the vehicle with a clear line of sight to the sky. Route the antenna cable neatly into the vehicle's interior.

4. Montați totul în spatele panourilor:

   Once all connections are made, securely mount the GSR Interface Adapter and the SiriusXM Vehicle Tuner behind the dash panels. Ensure they are placed in a location where they will not interfere with vehicle operation or be damaged. Use zip ties or other fasteners to keep cables tidy and secure.

Note: Some installations may require removal of dash panels. Refer to your vehicle's service manual or online resources for specific panel removal instructions.

6. Funcționare

1. Activate SiriusXM Subscription:

   Before you can listen, ensure your SiriusXM subscription is active. You will need the Radio ID from your SiriusXM tuner module to activate it. This ID can usually be found on the tuner itself or by tuning to channel 0.

2. Select SiriusXM Source:

   Turn on your vehicle and its radio. Navigate through the audio sources (e.g., AM, FM, Bluetooth, USB) using your factory radio controls until you find the SiriusXM source. This is typically labeled "SXM" or "SiriusXM."
3. Browse and Enjoy Channels:

   Once the SiriusXM source is selected, you can use your factory radio controls (e.g., tuning knobs, steering wheel buttons) to browse channels, change stations, and access features like presets. The system is designed to integrate seamlessly, allowing you to keep your eyes on the road.

4. Setarea presetărilor:

   You can typically add up to 36 presets for your favorite SiriusXM channels, integrating with your existing FM and AM presets. Consult your vehicle's radio manual for specific instructions on setting and recalling presets.

  • If your vehicle "indexes" media upon startup, wait a minute or two for the system to fully recognize the adapter.
• Intermittent Signal/Audio Dropouts:
  • Re-check the antenna placement. It should be firmly mounted and unobstructed.
  • Inspect antenna cable for kinks or damage.
  • Asigurați-vă că toate conexiunile sunt strânse și sigure.
• Comenzile nu răspund:
  • Verify that the correct audio source (SiriusXM) is selected on your factory radio.
  • Ensure the GSR adapter is receiving power and data.
  • If issues persist, try disconnecting and reconnecting the OBD II power and USB cables to reset the unit.
