This section provides details on the installation of the BLUEBOX.
• Several devices installed next to each other interfere if they are not
correctly configured.
• When mounting several nearby devices adhere to the minimum distances
between them.
• Flush mounting of a device head in metal reduces the read and write
distance.
• Keep the device away from direct sunlight, high humidity, extreme
temperatures,
combination of these conditions might degrade performance or shorten
the life of the device.
• Connect the device using a suitable cable as defined in electrical
connections section.
• Power the device using a suitable external power supply as defined in
electrical connections section. The boot sequence begins in either case
when power is supplied to the device. This sequence typically completes
within 5 seconds. After the boot sequence finishes, the device accepts
commands, not before. The LED on the device alerts you to the status as
defined in status indications section.
• For installation in and on metal tags provided for this purpose must be
used.
• The tag must be placed in the reading area of the device antenna. The
angle of aperture and the operating distance must be adhered to.
• The orientation of the device antenna axis must correspond with the axis
of the tag for best performance.
The device generates a modulated electrical field the UHF band 865 – 868 MHz.
To avoid interference of the data communication no other devices generating
interference emission in this frequency band must be operated in the vicinity.
