The 3M adhesive sticker is designed for you to securely place your RFID reader to the stand attachment.

1) Peel the sticker and place your RFID reader on the circular stand attachment as pictured below:

6) Attach the wire to your RFID reader and plug in using the adaptor

The cable provided as part of your delivery is used to power your RFID reader. The cable is long nylon braided USB 2.0 micro USB charging cable 3m

Important: To keep the wire hidden from public view, feed the iPad charging wire & reader cable through the stand base. See picture below.


7) Re-power your RFID reader using the adaptor provided

Once the wire has been connected to your RFID reader, insert the USB into the Anker adaptor and plug into the mains accordingly.

Anker's world-famous PowerIQ detects your devices and adjusts voltage output accordingly, delivering a tailored, optimized charge.
