WAVESHARE- REBE-TZ42C -LED 4.2 -Inch 3-Color -Graphic

Application

This Specification is applied to ATEC IOT Wireless Electronic Shelf Label. (REBE-TZ42C) REBE-TZ42C is used by retailers for displaying product pricing on shelves. Typically, electronic display modules are attached to the front edge of retail shelving. These modules use Electrophoretic Display (EPD) or similar screen technologies to show the current product price to the customer. A communication network allows the price display to be automatically updated whenever a product price is changed.
