Choosing, Installing, and Removing Tags

3-13

Installing eGo Plus License Plate Tags

Metallized coatings on some vehicle windshields and windows absorb the RF energy
emitted by the Encompass 4 Reader, thus causing tags to be misread. You must use
exterior LPTs on vehicles with metallized coatings on their windshields and windows.

Use license plate installation techniques to install tags on the exterior of vehicles that
have this type of window coating.

Note: The read zone of an overhead Encompass 4 Reader should be adjusted accord-
ingly when an exterior tag is installed on a license plate, or the read zone will be
reduced.

Required Materials

•

Screwdriver (flat-blade or Phillips depending on the vehicle’s license plate
mounting screws)

•

Optional TransCore Exterior Tag Accessory Kit (19077-01). This kit contains
tamper-resistant mounting screws and wrench.

eGo Plus LPT

Positioning eGo Plus License Plate Tags

The eGo Plus LPT is installed over the license plate at the upper part of the vehicle’s
front license plate area.

Note: If your state does not require a front license plate, install the LPT in the area
where the license plate would normally be mounted. If your vehicle does not have a
front license plate area, contact your tag agency for other tag options.

The orientation of the tag is important. The tag must be mounted so that the holes on
the tag base plate are on the top edge.

eGo Plus LPT Installation Procedures

To mount the eGo Plus LPT
1.

Remove the screws from the license plate area of your front bumper (

Figure 3-

). If your vehicle does not have mounting screws you will need two self-

tapping threaded screws. You can also contact the tag agency to inquire about the
optional TransCore Exterior Tag Accessory Kit.

Note: You may need to use longer screws to fasten the LPT over the top area of your
license plate.
