Codes” or (task status column in labels window) refer to “Task Status”
l For connection status problems refer to “Connection Status”

Code Problem Solution
1 Label not licensed
The label is not licensed. Import the proper license file
for the label or check for typos in the label id.
3 Label not registered
The label may have been deleted or has never been
registered at all. Register label.

The size of the image does not match the label’s display
size. Please check the width and height of your image
and look up the display size in pixels for the label.
These sizes have to be equal.

Change format of the image to standard format (e.g.
PNG or BMP)

offline (System -> Access Point Status) and there is an
established network connection between Access Point

Label authentication failed (wrong
encryption key)
