2-6 Pre-Installation Procedures
Phase 5: Install the SmarTalker Tags
Although physical placement of the SmarTalker tags is one of the last
tasks to be completed, preparation is occurring in parallel with Phase 4
of the installation. The SmarTalker installation consists of the
following tasks:
• Develop a pre-EPL file in cooperation with the overlay supplier
(Refer to “Phase 2: Scan the Site and Develop SmarTalker
Overlays” in this chapter, and Chapter 10, “SmarTalker and Rail
Installation” or Chapter 11, “SmarTalker II and Rail Installation.”)
• Install the SmarTalker rails and clips according to instructions
provided by the manufacturer.
• Install the SmarTalker tags (Refer to Chapter 10, “SmarTalker and
Rail Installation” or Chapter 11, “SmarTalker II and Rail
Installation.”)
• Load the pre-EPL file and initialize the SmarTalker tags (Refer to
Chapter 9, “Loading the Pre-EPL File.”)
Phase 6: Validate Quality of the Installation
The final phase of the installation process is to ensure the quality of the
installation. Refer to Chapter 12, “Testing the System.”
