Installation and Guidelines
2.2 Installation
Antenna Environment
Electromagnetic radiation and the presence of metal within the reading field of the antenna affect the range of the LRP2000. Mount the antenna to minimize the impact of these factors.
Installing the Antenna
Once a suitable location is selected for the LRP2000 antenna, the structure should be securely bolted to the floor using the holes provided in the base. The dimensions for the antenna bolt pattern are shown in Figure 5.
Mount the antenna at least 36” away from large metal objects. The antenna emits RF fields from both sides. Avoid placing metal in front of or behind the antenna.
