IV7 Vehicle-Mount Reader Instructions
Following Cable Safety Guidelines
The IV7 requires power, data, and antenna cables to connect it to
your vehicle-mounted RFID system. Keep these cable safety
guidelines in mind:
• Make sure that the cable routing does not interfere with other
equipment or vehicle controls.
• Keep cables as short as practical and route all cables to
minimize exposure to damage.
• Make sure the cables will not be pinched or rubbed by
moving parts on the vehicle. You may need to sheath the cable
to prevent it from being pinched.
• Secure the cables at least every 15 cm (6 in) throughout the
length of the cable run. Use adjustable clamps or tie-wraps to
secure the cables.
• Use a snap-in bushing if the cables pass through a firewall or
other sheet metal.
Note:
Most vehicle manufacturers offer pulley kits for installation
of wiring with risers. Intermec recommends using these
manufacturer-specific kits with any installation of the IV7 on a
forklift load back rest assembly.
