Mechanical Installation
Each of the transceivers has a similar but unique RF field that it generates.
Fastening Attach the transceiver to the flat plate with M5 screws. The tightening torque
must be 1.5 N•m for the M5 screw.
Spacing Between
Transceivers Installing more than one transceiver causes radio frequency interference and may
result in the difficulty of the tag communication. Keep a sufficient distance
between the transceivers as shown in
Figure 12 .
