The device must be fixed on a flat surface using the lateral mounting holes of the case, see chapter "Housing Dimensions" for a detailed description of all housing dimensions. Alternatively we offer as accessory a mounting clips.

Under any circumstances the device must not be mounted higher than 2 meters above ground to avoid any risks in case of falling down! |
For optimal RF performance (e.g. LoRa range) any metal obstacles near the internal antenna should be avoided. In this case 'near' is defined as keep-out distance of about 3-5 centimeters around the antenna. The internal quarter wave monopole antenna can be identified by the pcb trace near the white printed encircled 'connectivity' symbol. In any case a device mounting directly on top of a metal surface is not advisable since it will degrade the possible RF range. Stone walls, wood or plastic standoffs are perfectly ok.
