General Guidelines:
All tags on an asset type should be the same type, e.g. all infusion pumps should have an A-Status Type tag.
Select a standard location on each asset type for the tag. For A-Status tags select a location where the status
indicator is plainly visible and can be easily accessed by the user when switching the status switch.
The tag location should not interfere with normal use of the asset, and have sufficient clearance on the open
end of the base to insert the locking base key and insert and remove the tag.
For best performance do not place the tag in a location covered with metal, such as inside of a control box or
enclosed area under a bed frame.
Using adhesive pad – Clean the area on the asset with alcohol to ensure a good bond. Remove white side of
the adhesive covering and place on tag base, aligning the hole in the center of the adhesive over the base
locking mechanism. Remove red backing and apply to asset. (Be sure to leave sufficient clearance at the
open end of the base to insert and remove the tag from the base)
Adhesive Orientation Apply adhesive to base 1st
Adhesive mounting tips for curved surfaces:
If the target location is not completely flat you may need to add strips under the ends of the adhesive pad
(cut the strips from a spare pad)
Building up adhesive to conform to curves

Using the supplied plastic strap:
Use the supplied plastic “Tie-Rap” to attach the tag base to permanently mounted cords or handles of assets
where there is no convenient flat mounting spot.
Use tie-rap to attach tag to oddly shaped assets
Mounting to tubular fixtures:
Use stainless steel straps to attach tag to tubes or poles.
For best results mounting to tubular fixtures, such as IV poles or wheelchair frames, the locking base is
equipped with strapping holes. These holes are designed to be used with thin stainless steel straps, available
from Radarfind ( Part # A12-3T00 ) or Panduit:
