The MaxiProx should not be mounted within six feet of any monitors (VDTs or CRTs) because the scan
frequencies of most monitors include frequencies that may interfere with the signal received from the access
control cards.

Transponder Types
The type of transponder used affects the read range of the MaxiProx. The various styles of HID cards and
transponders use different types of antennas. The antenna type will determine the read range for that type of
transponder. The Vehicle ID tag provides the longest read range at 32-36 inches; the ProxCard II is 24-29
inches. The IsoProx/DuoProx is 17-20 inches. The ProxKey reads at a distance of 15-17 inches.
Note
The above are recommended installation procedures. All local, state and national electrical codes have
precedence.
