The 3D-iD Tags are water and shock resistant. However,
immersion, high-pressure washing, or extreme force can
damage the Tags.
When installing the Tags, keep in mind that metallic objects and
other radio absorbers and deflectors will hinder the performance of the Tags.
The Tags may be washed with alcohol, diluted bleach, and
diluted ammonia. Harsher solutions may cause damage
to the Tag s exterior or seal.
Changes and modifications not expressely approved by
PinPoint Corporation could void the user s authority to
operate the equipment.

About Tags
The 3D-iD Tags are the items tracked by the Cell Controller
and the Antennas - the components of the PinPoint
System. They are affixed to assets or personnel
enabling the 3D-iD system to secure, locate, and track
those resources. The Tags receive 2.442GHz radio signals which are generated by the Cell Controller. They
add their unique serial number to the signal and transflect the signal back to the Antenna at 5.77GHz. The
Cell Controller measures
the delay between when
the signal was sent and
when it was received, generating Tag-Antenna
Distance (TAD) data.

Mounting Tags - Asset Mount
The asset mount can be used to attach the Tag to any flat surface
or curved surface (up tp 2 diameter), such as a narrow bar
or a pole.
Mounting to a flat surface:
1.
Affix the bottom (flat side) of the mount to the desired surface using the double-sided tape.
For information about more securely attaching the mount to
an asset (e.g. screwing it to the asset), please contact your
certified system integrator.
2.
Screw the tag to the mount using the two (2) security screws
and the security screw driver. Ensure that:
The logo is facing outwards
The screws are not overtightened (overtightening can
damage the Tag package)
3.
The Tag and Mount should appear as shown.

Mounting to a curved surface:
1.
Apply the enclosed strip of foam tape down the middle of
the vertical axis on the bottom (flat side) of the Tag
Mount
2.
Run the hose clamps through the upper and lower channels of the mount. The ends of the hose clamps should
meet above the flat side of the mount.
Note: Other mechanisms may be used to secure the
mount to a curved surface, including tie-wraps or security banding. Ask your certified system integrator for
details.

Mounting to a curved surface (cont.):
3.
Attach the mount to the curved surface and tighten the hose
clamps screws until the hose clamps run nearly flat along
the channel in the mount.
4.
Screw the tag to the mount using the two (2) security
screws and the security screw driver. Ensure that:
The logo is facing outwards
The screws are not overtighted (overtightening can
damage the Tag package)
5.
The Tag and Mount should appear as shown.

Mounting Tags - Personnel Mount
Personnel Mounts are designed to enable a tag to be worn
around the neck or on a belt clip.
1.
Using the small strip of double-sided tape, affix the tape
to the flat side of the belt clip.
2.
Attach the belt clip to the back (no logo) side of the tag
near the top as shown.
3.
Using the belt clip affix the tag to a belt, or if desired, run
a lanyard through the belt clip to wear the Tag around
one s neck.
Note: The Tag s logo must always be facing out!

Maintaining the Tag
The ViewPoint software package contains a battery monitoring
application which will generate a report of all Tag s that have
a low battery (See the ViewPoint User s Manual for more
information). To change the Tag s battery:
1.
IIf the Tag is mounted to the Asset Mount, remove the Tag
from the Mount.
2.
Detach the battery case by carefully unscrewing the seven
(7) screws holding it to the Tag. The screws are on the rear
of the tag (the side with no logo).
3.
Carefully separate the Battery Case from the Tag.
4.
Properly dispose of the old battery case.
