Features
Overview: The SIRIUS Dock & Play PowerConnect Vehicle
Kit (SADV2) includes everything you need to install your SIRIUS Starmate,
Stratus, or Sportster plug & play tuner into
your second vehicle. The vehicle kit contains a vehicle docking station,
window/suction-cup mounting bracket, dash-mount bracket, DC power supply/FM
transmission antenna (cigarette lighter adapter), and roof-mount magnetic
antenna. Your SIRIUS Tuner slides down into the vehicle docking station,
which then mounts to either of the supplied brackets with four machine screws.
The dash-bracket's self-adhesive pad holds the unit firmly to the dash or the
suction-cup mount attaches to your windshield.
Compatibility: The SIRIUS Dock & Play PowerConnect Vehicle Kit
(SADV2) is compatible with the following SIRIUS plug & play tuners (as of
1/26/2012).
- Starmate: 4, 5, 8
- Stratus: 3, 5, 6
- Sportster: 5, 5i
Antenna: The low-profile SIRIUS antenna has a powerful
magnetic base that allows you to mount the antenna on the roof or trunk lid of
your vehicle. The antenna needs to be positioned in such a way that it will be
free of mechanical and line-of-sight obstructions. The antenna' s dimensions
are:
- Diameter: 2.195"
- Height: 0.445"
- Cable Length: 21'
Note: The attached micro-cable has a single SMB
connector, which plugs into the vehicle dock.
PowerConnect Transmitter: The FM modulator built into the
Stratus 6 retransmits the SIRIUS signal it receives via the PowerConnect power
supply, to be tuned by your existing radio.
Dash Mount: The supplied dash-mount bracket features a
self-adhesive pad, which will mount the vehicle dock securely to the dash. The
bracket features a ball socket joint, allowing you to adjust the mounting angle.
Window Mount: The supplied suction-up mount bracket allows you to
mount the receiver and the vehicle dock securely to your windshield. The bracket
then allows you to angle the Stratus 6 up or down.
Optional Pro-Fit Brackets: The car kit
docking station is directly compatible with the Legend series (adjustable
ball/socket joint) Pro-Fit Vehicle-Specific Mounts (VSMs). When used with the
Pro-Fit easy swivel adapter (042EZ1026,
sold separately), the docking station will work with the standard (fixed)
Pro-Fit VSMs, as well.
Note: Please, check the
Crutchfield Car Selector
for a Pro-Fit VSM that's compatible with your
vehicle.
Connections: The vehicle docking station has the following
connections:
- Power: Input for included supplied cigarette lighter
adapter (5 volts DC/1.5 amps).
- Audio Output: 3.5mm stereo mini-jack line output.
- FM Output: 2.5mm sub-mini jack FM output for use with
an optional wired FM direct adapter (607FMDA25,
sold separately).
- Antenna: Single SMB connector for attaching supplied
SIRIUS antenna.
