• Each Reader type has it own required materials for connecting to
third-party devices. Please see the specific section for the
Reader that you are installing.
Mounting the Reader - All Types
All Readers have the same mounting requirements.
IMPORTANT! Before permanently mounting any piece of the
AXCESS NT132 System, first lay out and test the entire system.
Step 1: Select a Reader location consistent with the type of
antenna being installed. The Reader should be a minimum
of 36 inches off the ground, preferably at eye-height.
Step 2: Mount the Reader securely with the cover hinge on the left
and external connectors on the bottom (Figure 6). Screw
holes are provided inside the cabinet for mounting to a wall
(Figure 7).
IMPORTANT! When you mount the Reader, be careful not
to damage the electronic components. A manual
screwdriver is recommended for tightening the screws.
Other installation techniques may better satisfy specific
site conditions - L-brackets or double-sided tape to mount
the Reader, or placement of the Reader inside an
enclosure on a shelf.
