Mounting the Tag
11
The tag will have 400-foot (122m) read/write range to Savi SR-650 Fixed
Readers. For the most consistent communications with the tag, the Fixed
Readers must be mounted:
• to have an unobstructed line-of-sight to the tag
• at 20 feet (6m) or higher
caution: Tags mounted close to the ground may have less range.
Follow the instructions in the Savi Fixed Reader documentation to locate
and position the Savi Fixed Reader for best performance.
Mounting the Tag
You can choose among several mounting methods for the tag, including
using pressure sensitive tape (PST) or a plastic mounting sleeve.
Whichever mounting method you select, the goal is to prevent accidental
loss of the tag by sudden impact, vibration, or shock during transport. The
fastener you choose often depends on the material from which the asset or
container is constructed and your personal preference.
There are two accessory mounting packages, which are sold separately:
• Savi Mounting Kit STA-1260-Green, which includes PST
• Savi Magnetic Mounting Kit STA-1261-Green
You can also use the following alternative fastening methods:
• Tie-wraps
•Twine
• Screws
caution: Use these and other alternative methods at your own risk.
If it is not possible or practical to use screws, use PST to attach the tag.
Use only 3M Corporation’s Automotive Acrylic Plus Attachment Tape®.
