An electronic label is a device that shows digital information on its display.
In comparison to printed paper, the information is automatically updated if
object data changes. The PDi Digital electronic label family offers high-
quality display options, operating with a replaceable battery, thus working
without any external power supply. The PDi Digital (2.4GHz) electronic label
family can change all pixels to black, white or red/yellow. The current line-
up has display sizes from 1.6 inches to 12.2 inches. They may be used in
landscape and portrait mode and can be configured in terms of radio, theft
protection, display protection, and LED flash.
Next to the PDi Digital electronic label family, a radio module is available
in order to give third parties access to the existing SES Imagotag + PDi
Digital 2.4GHz infrastructure. The module is acting similar to an electronic
label but has no display.

The installation instructions are intended for trained electricians who can exhibit the following qualifications:
- Knowledge of the use of tools and work instructions.
- Knowledge of the usable conditions of the tool.
- Knowledge of the electrical safety instructions.
- Knowledge of the electrical building regulations.
- Knowledge of the relevant standards.
- Knowledge of the assembly schedule.
The power supply is cell-button batteries. The following table will give you a short overview of all kinds of labels and their batteries.
Note: battery life can vary depending on the operating conditions of the labels (temperature, radio usage, etc).
General remarks
The sepioo labels must be installed according to the mounting instructions of the producer. In rare cases, it may occur that the usage of wireless appliances is restricted by the building owner (e.g. Airport or Hospital). Please contact the appropriate authorities before installing the PDi Digital sepioo labels.
Environmental
General
E-Paper displays are moisture and UV sensitive. The absolute rating operating
environment describes the boundary conditions for updating the display while
the absolute rating storage environment (see Storage and warehousing)
describes the boundary conditions for a display not updating.
| BW| BW (Wide temp/Freezer)| BWR
---|---|---|---
Operating temperature| 0° C to +45° C| -25° C to +30° C| 10° C to +40° C
Operating temperature for maximum lifetime| 21° C| 21° C| 21° C
Operating humidity| 30% – 8o%| 30% – 8o%| 35% – 70%
Cleaning Instructions
Clean the electronic label with the help of a damp cloth. Use only common
household cleaners.
Do not clean the label with alcohol, solvents, and/or abrasive cleaning
products.
Note: Do not use liquid or aerosol cleaners and keep them away from water.
Temperature and Humidity Conditions
High humidity combined with low temperature is not recommended.
Low temperature will reduce the battery lifetime.
Storage and warehousing
While displays are rated to perform according to specification for the
warranty period at the absolute specified operating environment, the better
the storage condition, the better the E-Paper displays will perform. Like
other moisture and UV-sensitive components, we recommend that our labels are
stored in temperature and humidity-controlled environments, and whenever
possible, under below defined Optimal Storage Conditions, away from sunlight,
to optimize their performance.
It is strongly recommended to observe the following points to ensure the best
operation, functioning, and battery lifetime:
Storage temperature and humidity
| BW| BW (Wide
temp/Freezer)| BWR
---|---|---|---
Storage temperature| -20° C to +50° C| -20° C to +50° C| -2o° C to +50° C
Storage humidity| 30% – 80%| 30% – 80%| 40% – 70%
Optimal storage
temperature| o° C to +30° C| o° C to +30° C| o° C to +30° C
Optimal storage humidity
(non-condensing)| 40% – 6o%| 40% – 6o%| 40% – 6o%
- Do not operate any ESL Infrastructure (e.g. SES-imagotag AP-2010 or MAP 2014T/Lancom L-151E,) in the warehouse storing labels or where the radio coverage will activate stored labels.
- The label will permanently try to connect to the access point, leading to a less usable battery lifetime.
- The maximum storage time of labels should not exceed 0.5-1 year
If these listed limits do not comply, the specified battery life can vary, and display quality can be influenced negatively.
Intended Use
PDI Digital’s electronic label family is exclusively designed to connect to Access Points of the company SES-image tag or acknowledged partners via radio. The device may only be used in areas where the environment fulfills the requirements described in the chapter “Environmental”.
Improper use

- KEEP BATTERIES OUT OF REACH OF CHILDREN
- Swallowing batteries may lead to serious injury in as little as 2 hours or death, due to chemical burns and potential perforation of the esophagus.
- If you suspect your child has swallowed or inserted a button battery immediately call the local Poisons Information Authority, with contact information available online.
- Don’t heat, recharge or bend the battery.
- Examine devices and make sure the battery compartment is correctly secured, e.g. that the screw or other mechanical fastener is tightened. Do not use it if the compartment is not secure.
- Dispose of used button batteries immediately and safely. Empty batteries can still cause harm.
- Tell others about the risk associated with button batteries and how to keep their children safe.
