FUNCTIONAL DESCRIPTION
SETUP & CONNECTION
The ViewTag setup requires the user to download the smartphone app. The user then fills in all
of their itinerary information in the fields within the app. The user initiates the connection
within the app and then completes the connection by pressing the power button on the
ViewTag.
If the power button on the ViewTag is pressed and the LED blinks, and a connection isn’t
established within 15 seconds, the ViewTag will turn off and stop attempting connection.
If the power button is pressed and the LED does not illuminate, the user must wait at least 15
seconds before attempting another connection.
BLANKING THE SCREEN
In order to clear the ViewTag’s display, the user must press and hold the power button on the
ViewTag for approximately 2 seconds (the blue LED will double blink at 2 seconds), release the
button, then press the button once more (without holding it). This will blank the bi-stable
display and clear it of any existing data.
RECALLING THE SCREEN
In order to recall the ViewTag’s display information after blanking, the user must press and hold
the power button on the ViewTag for approximately 4 seconds (the LED will double blink at 2
seconds and again at 4 seconds), release the button, then press the button once more (without
holding it). This will recall the bi-stable display and redisplay the information.
RFID
The airline is capable of updating the tag based on itinerary changes. Via RFID UHF readers, the
airline can update the ViewTag’s RFID memory. When in the presence of an RFID field, the
ViewTag will automatically check for updates to its RFID memory and update the display
information if required.
DEACTIVATION DURING FLIGHT
The ViewTag is in sleep mode until the power button is pressed. All radio communications are
disabled to save power. Radio function is only active on a user initiated button press.
