Mounting
2.1
Transponder
The maximum reading distance for all transponders can only be achieved when the
minimum distance to metal surfaces is maintained. There are some transponder types
especially optimized for the mounting directly on metal. To clarify the configuration, it
is essential to carry out tests!
As mentioned above, it is recommendable to maintain the minimum distances within
the metal-free area (Figure 2). The impact on positioning accuracy and range also de-
pends on the size and distance of metal parts.

Alternatively the transponder can be mounted level with the road. In this case, the an-
tenna has to be placed into an accordingly lower position to ensure the nominal read-
ing distance.
NOTE!
Electric power lines (for example for charging points) may not be
passed in this area, as the reading of the code will be compli-
cated or the code will be falsified by pulses which may occur.
