The imago G1 electronic shelf label family offers high-quality display options, operating with
a replaceable battery and thus working with any external power supply. Thanks to the
perfect readability of the e-Ink displays and our outstanding wireless data transmission
technology you can implement all your sales, marketing, and logistic strategies.
The AP-2010 by imagotag is the communication center in the store that transmits price
information to the labels. Up to 10 000 labels can be managed per access point and the self-
organizing network allows automatic roaming of labels without manual handling. The high
transmission rate of the 2.4 GHz wireless technology and the intelligent task scheduling
enables fast and secure updates on imago G1 labels of all sizes.
The access point communicates with the electronic shelf labels with radio frequency on the
2.4 GHz ISM band with a proprietary protocol developed by imagotag. It supports 11
selectable channels.
: The ESL server is a Java software that is required to manage the imagotag
access points and electronic shelf labels. The ESL server may be executed as a background
service on a Windows or Linux machine in the store and does not provide a graphical user
interface.
: The ESL client is also Java based software. It’s a graphical user interface (GUI)
for monitoring and for the configuration of the ESL server. The ESL client connects to the ESL
server. The server may be installed on the same machine or any other machine that is
accessible over the network.
: To render images from article records on the ESL server, the layout must
be predefined in a template file. During the rendering process the data will be inserted into
the fields reserved to hold this data. Templates are based on web standards (XML, XSL,
XPath, CSS) and an proprietary XML based markup language. Therefor an editor to create
and edit template files with live preview based on example records is also on the imagotag
USB stick.
