LIBRARY SECURITY PEDESTAL 2 

 

 

 

 In the case of several pedestal row installation then it is significant that all L-SP2 

being  positioned in the same direction (the people counter of each looking forward the same 
direction) 

Pedestals must be mounted between 800 and 915 mm apart (center to center) for maximum 
reliable performance. There should be at least one pair of pedestals at each entrance/exit point of 
the library. There should be a pedestal at each edge of the entrance, and a clear space of at least 
500 mm around the edge of the pedestals to ensure that the antennas are not detuned (

 

). This clear space must not contain any metallic objects, but may contain some substrates such as 
non-metallic/non-conductive building materials such as wood, glass, chipboards and plasterboards.  

There should be a distance of at least 2.5 m. (~ 8 ft.) between the pedestals and a circulation desk 
or other RFID station. There should be a distance of at least 9 m. (~ 30 ft.) between pedestals with 
the same synchronization ID. 

The L-SP2 pedestal is mechanically compatible with the Smarto L122 Pedestal. 

After having defined the location of the pedestals, refer to the mechanical drawing of the pedestal 
mounting diagram (

). The pedestal is fastened to the floor using screws that are strong 

enough to support the weight of an average adult falling against the pedestal.  

 

1.  Identify and mark the location of the holes to be drilled for mounting the pedestal to the ground. 

The use of a tape measure and a square is recommended. 

2.  Drill the cable access and mounting holes according to the type of ground surface: 

a.  Wood floor: Drill eight holes with a diameter of 4 mm for the mounting screws and one 

hole with a diameter of 19 mm for the cable access.  

b.  Cement floor: Drill eight holes with a diameter of 8 mm for the cement floor plugs and 

one hole with a diameter of 19 mm for the cable access. It may be necessary to provide 
a groove for the power supply cable connected to the L-SP2 Electronics Unit. Insert the 
concrete floor plugs into the mounting holes. 

 

 

 Always use a protective sleeve for main power cable which match to the non-

inflammability standard. Main power cable must be a 3 wire (line, neutral and earth), multi 
stranded copper wire, 0.5 mm²/ 3A)
