ESL channels reserved for the communication with the labels. Five of these ESL channels do not
interfere with typical Wi-Fi installations and should therefore be favored. These are the ESL channels
3, 5, 8, 9 and 10 and they should be selected if there is a Wi-Fi installation on the Wi-Fi channels 1, 6
and 11.
FIGURE 1-23: Visualization of ESL channels vs. Wi-Fi channels
Warning: Do not select the same ESL channel on two access points within one area. This will cause
interferences and avoids labels from joining the network. The same ESL channel may only be
selected on two access points if it can be guaranteed that every label is within the range of only one of
these access points.
