◆
RF interference from other equipment such as computers, walkie-talkies,
cellular phones, elevators, electrical motors, or other RF-emitting
devices
◆
Savi Fixed Reader SR-650-101 mounting height of less than 15–30 feet
(4.572–9.144 meters)
◆
Metal or RF-absorbent surface on the tracked item
◆
Tag location relative to the Savi Reader, such as behind a metal
obstruction (as illustrated in Figure 2-1) or stacked under multiple layers
Some of these factors may be beyond your control. The goal when
positioning the Savi Fixed Reader SR-650-101 is to optimize advantages
and reduce limitations to make the collection range as efficient as possible.

If the location forces you to use a less-than-ideal position for the reader, the
collection range could be reduced, requiring additional readers.
Note:
If you must mount a Savi Fixed Reader on a wall, the collection
range may not extend to the opposite side of the wall. You may need a
second Savi Reader to monitor the area behind the wall.
