3.2.3 Working principle and status of the base station:
Working principle:
- After Base Station power on, the ARM processor to start working, initialize the network chip and wireless chip
- After initialization, Base Station enters the network receiving state and waits for data from the server
- When the server has tag data, it sends the data to Base Station through the network.
- Base Station receives the data and sends it to the corresponding tag by wireless
Base station status：
- Power on: plug in the power supply and network cable, the base station screen display ” —-“
- Online: computer running ESL software, the base station screen display “H-01”
- Communicating: software sending data and the base station screen display “C–01”
- Communication completed: the base station screen display changes from “C–01” back to “H- 01”
3.2.4 Base station control range:
- Connection method: TCP/IP(Private Protocol)
- Control area: Circle with a radius of 13-15m (43-50 ft) (Area 530-706m² (5705-7599ft²))

What is an Electronic Shelf Label solution?
2.4GHz Electronic Shelf Label solution consists of three components,
including an Electronic Shelf Label management system (ESL Software), a
wireless Base Station/AP and an Electronic Shelf Label.
Integrate the Electronic Shelf Label management system with the POS system/ERP
system/CRM system/MCR system of the supermarket, the information of the
customer database is sent to the
Electronic Shelf Label management system, the Electronic Shelf Label
management system will send the information to the wireless base station
through LAN and the wireless base station will send the content to be
displayed to the Electronic Shelf Label through the 2.4GHz communication
frequency to realize the commodify information in real time update.
