DOCUMENT HISTORY

Preface

1.1 About This Guide
This guide introduces the end-user to the SoluMESL (Electronic Shelf Label) Gateway and provides explanations for the usage and installation of the Gateway with accompanying images.

Overview

The SoluM ESL (Electronic Shelf Label) Gateway is a crucial centerpiece inthe overall ESL System that electronically displays the price and other product information, which are traditionally printed or written on paper in places like the supermarket.
In the ESL System, the Gateway receives product or price updates from the server and uploads the new data onto the corresponding electronic shelf label tags (or ESLTags), changing the displayed product or price information.
An example of a typical Gateway and ESL tag setup can be seen in Figure 3.1. Product Specifications
