Tag Enrollment
|
For Stock Tags, you will find the Facility Code under the description. UHF W26 FC:020. The tag # is printed on the box and tag as well. For Special Programmed tags, this information is submitted by the customer. You will be able to go in and enroll your tags with the information provided above. Note: Stock tags have a different look than Special Programmed Tags in that the Barcode and ID Number are printed on the back of the Special-Order Tag |
Tag Placement
Two things block/affect all RFID reads and that is metal and water. Some high-end vehicles and aftermarket tint in windshields will block the signal from reaching the tags. If metalized content is present in the area of application, there won’t be a read achieved. The best practice is to have a pack of External Sticker tags on hand as a workaround when metalized content is present in the recommended area of application.
Installation Height
The best practice is to mount the reader 4-6 ft above the highest tag placement and angle the reader down and across (45 degrees) the read lane.
