Mounting the Network Receiver
• The Receiver should be within 35 feet of an activated Tag
• The receiving antenna should not be blocked by metal or brick
The following diagrams show various mounting positions for the
Network Receiver. Two mounting holes on the bottom of the Receiver
can be used to mount the it to a wall (Figure 18). Double-sided tape
can also be used to mount the Receiver. The receiving antenna can
be placed through acoustic tile in a ceiling (Figure 19).

Mounting the Receiving Antenna Separately
In some installations, such as vehicle applications, it may be
necessary to mount the receiving antenna separately from the
Network Receiver. Detaching the receiving antenna allows you
to place the antenna closer to activated Tags and to place the
Receiver in a more advantageous location, such as an
electrical closet or inside a waterproof enclosure.
