Mount the Reader
Before mounting the Reader, you must select a location for it. For best results, consider the following
when determining the optimal placement for your Reader:
WARNING: The antenna must be installed in a manner that ensures a
minimum separation distance of 23 centimeters between the antenna and
human beings.
CAUTION: If the Reader is not installed properly, it could be damaged
and your system performance diminished.
To mount the Reader:
1. Position the AR 400 Reader at the desired mounting position on the wall or shelf. Make sure that
there are five (5) inches of clearance on all sides of the Reader.
2. Using the pre-drilled holes at the corners of the Reader to guide you, drill four holes for mounting the
reader.
3. Securely affix the Reader to the wall of shelf using the four screws that you provided.
Mount the Reader indoors, in operating range, and out of direct sunlight, high moisture,
or extreme temperatures.
Mount the Reader in an area free from electromagnetic interference. Such sources of
interference may include: generators, pumps, converters, non-interruptible power
supplies, AC switching relays, light dimmers, computer CRT terminals, etc.
Mount the Reader within 15 feet of your antennas (antenna connector cables from
Matrics are 15-feet long.)
Make sure the local power supply cord, when attached to the Reader, can reach the power
source outlet.
Do not mount the Reader within 12 inches of a computer CRT terminal.
Make sure that you will be mounting the Reader onto a permanent fixture (wall or shelf)
where it won’t get disturbed, bumped, or damaged. Keep in mind that you will need five
(5) inches of clearance on all sides of the Reader.
