General remarks

• The SES-imagotag VUSION Labels must be installed according to the mounting instructions of the producer.
• In rare cases, the usage of wireless appliances can be restricted by the building owner (e.g. Airport or Hospital).
• Please contact the appropriate authorities before installing the SES-image tag VUSION Labels.

Environmental

General

• E-paper displays are moisture and UV-sensitive. Exposing the E-Tags to direct UV sources should be avoided seeing as those can impact the casing quality as well as image clarity.
• The absolute rating operating environments describe the boundary conditions for updating the display while the absolute rating (see storage and warehousing) describes the boundary conditions for a display not updating

Cleaning Instructions

• Clean the electronic label with the help of a damp cloth.
• Use only common pH-neutral household cleaners and no other aggressive cleaning agents.
• Do not clean the label with alcohol, solvents, and/or abrasive cleaning products as they can react with the used materials and alter the product’s appearance and functionality.

Note: Do not use liquid or aerosol cleaners and keep it away from water.
Temperature and Humidity Conditions

• High humidity combined with low temperature is not recommended
• Overall, an operation outside of the above-given ranges is not covered and hence not recommended to use the ESL outside of this range
• Temperatures differing room temperature may have an impact on battery lifetime (excl. Freezer)

Storage and warehousing

While displays are rated to perform according to the specifications for the warranty period at the specified absolute operating environment the storage conditions before installation also need to be considered. Testing showed that the storage conditions close to the operation conditions of the E-Paper display performed better than if it is stored outside of the storage conditions mentioned in the table below. Like other moisture and UV-sensitive components, we recommend that our labels be 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

• Don’t drop the label to the floor. If an ESL is dropped, check whether the label is still working or has any visible damage.

• Apply as little pressure as possible when inserting the ESL into the rail or when moving in the rail. Apply pressure only on the edge of the screen and at the level of the battery compartment, not on the screen itself. If the ESL is equipped with Easylock, only remove the ESLs from the rail with the provided tool for this purpose.
