Install the Model 210 Determine the best placement for the pad • Place the pad on a flat, non-metallic surface in a convenient location. For best performance, make sure that the pad is at least 2 in. (5 cm) away from any metal surface, keeping in mind that some desks and tables may have metal parts underneath the surface. If necessary, the pad can be as close as 1.0 in. (2.5 cm) to a metal surface. This will reduce the read range. GR_210_dimensions 7.21 in 18.
