• Do not position the Antenna PCB on any metal surface or within approximately
2 inches (5 cm.) in any direction of any grounded metal such as metal shelving,
steel beams, or electrical conduit. When attaching the Reader to a metallic face
panel frame the Antenna with a non‐metallic material as shown below to ensure

• Do not place the Reader PCB in the near vicinity of broad spectrum EMI noise
sources (such as motors, pumps, power supplies, light dimmers, CRTs, etc.).
• Avoid sources of RF (such as cellular telephones, portable 2‐way radios, etc.)
which may reduce the ability of the reader to communicate with the tag.
• Make sure that all cables and wiring associated with the Reader is at least 6
inches (15 cm.) away from other cabling and wiring (such as AC power cables
from other electrical devices, computer data cabling, telephone wiring, or wiring
associated with electric‐powered locking mechanisms).
