Installation
To ensure a proper function of the AMP 4/8 you have to follow the steps in following chapters. The
installation should be done by trained people.
2.1
Mounting of the housing
The AMP 4/8 can be mounted to any other mechanic construction. It is recommended to protect the
housing against heavy mechanical interactions and drippy fluids.
With the help of the plastic bars, the reader can be mounted or screwed on to the most fastening
elements without open the housing of the device.
2.2
Grounding of the AMP 4/8
The AMP 4/8 should be grounded. The connector is placed at the side of the housing (6.35 mm flat
contact).
To avoid EMV-problems, the cable to ground ought to be very short with low impedance.
