Notice
- If the background of the display is red, display quality can be decreased. Generally, we recommend that the portion of red color has less than 50%.
- The battery lifetime depends on operating conditions (Temperature, humidity, wireless environment, image update count, Indicator…etc)
- It can be used by connecting an external power source that meets power specification instead of the battery provided (Refer to clause 6.2. about Power specifications)
- Refer to clause 9.2.1 about NFC Function
- LoS (Line of Sight) : Without any sort of an obstacle between a gateway and end devices.
- Communication Range depends on the surrounding environment.
Absolute Maximum Rating
Environmental Conditions
The normal operating environmental conditions are those as below. In such
conditions, ESL must be in conformity with the present specification. The
conformity to such requirements must be certified by the manufacturer.
