MOUNTING THE ANPR
Determine how to mount the ANPR. Onto a pole or behind the barrier. Mount behind
the barrier to ensure recognition right in front of the barrier.
Important mounting issues are:
Best focus distance is between 3 and 6 meters (for ANPR Access HD
between 6 and 10 meters).
Angle between ANPR and number plate should be smaller than 25 degrees.
Mounting details are described in chapter 3.

CONNECTING THE ANPR
The ANPR is delivered with 5m cables for power, I/O and network. Power supply,
RS485 communication and I/O are combined in one cable. Ethernet network is a
second cable. The cables are pre-fitted to the ANPR. For installation the ANPR does
not need to be opened. Connecting the power supply and network cables are
required to configure the ANPR. Connection details are described in chapter 4.
