The MP9320 V2.8 is factory calibrated for operation with the following type of
antenna and cable:
It is highly recommended that the antenna mounting be adjustable in order to
obtain the best performance from the system. However, the antennas must be
installed on a solid surface or frame to prevent damage or later misalignment.
Perform the following to install the antennas.
NOTE: Use the existing mounting holes on the antenna flange. Drilling new holes in the flange is
not recommended.
1. Determine the location of each antenna. Ensure the antenna(s) will not be
vulnerable to damage by moving inventory or equipment.
2. Use the antenna as a template and mark the mounting holes.
3. Drill and tap (if necessary) mounting holes for #10 or 1/4 inch mounting
screws. For drywall mounting, use drywall anchors or toggle screws.
4. Mount each antenna and install the mounting screws. Do not overtighten the
screws. Damage to the antenna case may result.
5. Route each antenna cable back to the reader location. For dual-opposing or
portal configurations, route the opposing cables so they can not be damaged
by equipment or personnel.
6. Secure each antenna cable with wire ties or other restraint.
