VP5300 Installation
This section provides information on how to install the VP5300 in an enclosure.
Note that the unit may be installed edgewise (vertically), or in a horizontal manner. It can also be
bolted to a surface, or custom-mounted flush with a surface. In the latter case, be sure to allow a
3mm (minimum) cutout clearance around the edge of the metal face flange (assuming the enclosure
is metallic), to maintain good NFC performance. Do not tightly flush-mount the unit to a metal
enclosure. Test NFC performance thoroughly to be sure no interference or signal attenuation occurs.

Installing the Reader
Refer to the VP5300 3-view drawing. Verify that power cords can physically reach the unit. Then
proceed to:
•
Locate, mark, and drill holes for the four main mounting points of the unit, spaced 89 mm
apart lengthwise (on center), and spaced 45 mm apart (on center) along the short axis. Use a
#12 drill.
•
Secure the unit to the enclosure with bolts or screws of appropriate depth. Note that the anti-
tamper nubs, located behind the mounting gasket on the unit's right side (when viewed head-
on; the side nearest the molded-in ViVOpay logo), must be depressed when the unit is
mounted. Ensure that the gasket is compressed to a degree necessary to ensure anti-tamper
nub depression (and to protect against unnecessary moisture ingress).
