Environment, mounting and branding

The VTAP reader must be stored and operated under the following conditions:

• Ambient temperature -25 to +70°C (-13 to 158°F)

• Humidity 0 to 95% RH non-condensing

• Pressure 86-106kPa

The VTAP100-PRO requires connection of its captive USB cable to a standard 5V USB port or power adapter.

The VTAP100-PRO is supplied in a compact case.

VTAP100-PRO readers are designed for indoor use. If a VTAP100-PRO reader is installed in a location exposed to moisture, it should be in a wallmount (vertical) orientation with the lower screw cover label removed to ensure drainage.

The compact case separates into two pieces, which clip together around the PCB. After deciding where you will use your VTAP reader, you may want to alter the assembly to suit the location.

You may have to remove a small label on the end of the VTAP reader, to uncover the screw that holds the pieces together. To do this in a way that will keep the label in good condition to reapply later, apply pressure directly down on the label and slide it gently towards the edge of the case.

The case can be changed from an ergonomic desktop reader design to one suited for wall mounting, simply by rotating the PCB and the case front through 180°, keeping the LED and LED window aligned. Mount the PCB in the case, then engage the hooks at the LED window edge of the case to form a hinge, lower the cover and secure with a screw at the opposite end.

The cable can be routed directly out of the back of the reader, if preferred, to hide the wire completely from view or prevent access. The back label includes a circular pre-cut section that can be pushed out to allow the cable to be passed though.

The following diagram shows the location of mounting holes in the compact case base plate:

We can take your CMYK, vector format images and design and supply labels manufactured to high standards using an advanced production method, where the printing is protected by a thick layer of clear plastic, making them scratchproof, waterproof and UV-proof.

Apple guidelines require the standard contactless logo to be used, and so our standard label template includes this along with a design that highlights the location of the VTAP antenna, as that is the target location for a user to tap their phone.

The size of the label recess on a compact case (-CC) is 41mm x 57mm with 2mm radius rounded corners as shown below.
