Bar Antenna Installation

• The Bar Antenna should be within 50 feet (cable length) of the

Activator.

• The Bar Antenna should be located at least 4 inches from any

Figure 33 Installation points for the Bar Antenna

• Orient the Bar Antenna so that the wake-up field provides

maximum coverage of the access or monitoring area (door), etc.

Keep in mind what will be tracked with the antenna – personnel

would carry Tags in their shirt or pants pocket, Tags on laptops

would be carried closer to the floor.

IMPORTANT!

Test each position shown in Figure 33. Tilting the

Bar Antenna may also improve performance.
