Mounting
The recommended method of attaching the 2106 Tag to clothing or equipment is by a hook-and-loop fastener
patch on the back of the tag.
The following is the recommended attachment for the hook-and-loop fastener to the tag and clothing or
equipment (Use fastener material long and wide enough to ensure a secure attachment to all affected items).
Attach the hook part to the back side of the tag, being careful not to cover the FCC ID sticker.
Attach the loop part to the clothing or equipment
Figure 2-1 below shows back side of the tag where the hook part of the fastener would be applied.
Alternate methods of attaching the Tag to an item:
The tag may be inserted into a fabric pouch on clothing.
The tag may be carried in a pocket.
The tag can be attached using double-sided tape. Although this method provides a quicker and easier
attachment to equipment, it does not offer as secure a method for an actively moving item as the
Hook-and-Loop fastener patch system.
TAG ORIENTAION:
Although the tag has two transmitter and antennas to maximize operation in different physical orientations,
there is an optimal tag mounting orientation. To maximize the Sensor reception of tag transmissions, the tag
should be mounted vertically (in a “portrait” orientation). See figure 2-2 below for an example.
