    Go | installation guide 3.3 Mounting instruction The uPASS Go is intended for vehicle access control. It offers a read range up to 10 meter. Recommended installation height is between 2 and 3 meters. The directional antenna can be “aimed” at the lane where vehicles are to be identified. The antenna is circular polarized, which means that the tags may be installed in any orientation.
