Reading OBUs
Reading Range up to 10feet (3m)
The typical reading range is up to 3m (10feet) and depends on these
parameters:
OBU’s mounting angle on windshields
Offset angle to bore sight between reader unit and OBU
Note: When reading a specific OBU make sure that no other OBU’s are
in the communication range of the reader to prevent reading the wrong
OBU. To reduce the risk of reading wrong OBUs choose the distance
between the reader and the OBU as close as possible, but not closer
than 0.5m(20in).
