Reader Mechanical Installation
The MP9320 is designed for easy installation. The following instructions provide the
information to install your UHF reader.
As shown in Figure 2, the reader is designed for horizontal or vertical installation.
Mounting keyholes are provided on each side of the base plate for easy, non-

Caution
To ensure proper cooling of the reader, verify that the fan intakes and vents are free of
obstructions.

For horizontal or table mounting, ensure the reader and all cabling is secured to the
surface or frame.
SAMSys recommends that the MP9320 be mounted on a horizontal surface. However,
if vertical surface installation is required, refer to the following sections for the
appropriate mounting. As shown in Figure 3, keyhole slots are provided for easy
