Note: Reflections may also distort or skew the reliable reading area • Reflections can have positive or negative effects on the shape of a reading zone and its distance – Metal surfaces give the strongest reflection, but other materials can also cause them. – 12.1.2015 Idesco Oy... -

Transactions occur when this pattern overlaps with the tag, • providing the chip enough power to reply to the reader. EPC Windshield Labels reply with emissions in 360 degrees around their axes; amplitude is • strongest perpendicular to the tag axis. -
Page 5: Installation Of Epc Reader
Installation of EPC Reader Your reader will be delivered with an installation set for deployment on wall, ceiling or poles. • Installation can be made on poles with diameters between 25,5 and 44,5 mm. • The best deployment location always depends, of course, on the site environment. - Page 6 Consider siting your reader slightly above the tag, since the amplitude of a tag’s reply will be most powerful perpendicular to its own axis. Note, however, that in vertical positions, EPC Windshield Labels will also radiate strongly sideways, •...
- Page 7 Installation of EPC Reader After installing your reader, experiment to determine the reliable reading area using a tag installed • on the surface of a glass or plastic plate. This will help you identify and reflection or ‘dark’ zones. If you don’t achieve your preferred read distance or zone initially, experiment by changing the •...

• radiation. Unfortunately, this coating could reduce the reliable read distance of installed tags. If the reliable read distance of a windshield tag is unsatisfactory, Idesco can provide its EPC Metal • Tag ABS for siting inside the vehicle (e.g. on the dash) or installed onto the vehicle bumper which will probably resolve the issue. -

• transact with a tagged vehicle driving through an adjacent lane or down a nearby street. To prevent this, try horizontal siting of the EPC Windshield Label. (see Emission Patterns, above) • In some instances, metal surfaces near the reader are skewing the reading area, causing the error. -

Whenever possible, the most ideal position for an AVI reader is above the vehicle lane. This gives the reader the most optimal position for transacting with the tag. Correspondingly, tags should be installed opposite the rear-view mirror, in the middle of the vehicle’s windshield. 12.1.2015 Idesco Oy... - Page 11 If corner siting of the tag isn’t feasible, try siting it close to the rear-view mirror – but only if a reliable reading distance has already been prove by your own testing. 12.1.2015 Idesco Oy...
