ATEC IoT Manuals & User Guides

ATEC IoT is a leading provider of wireless electronic shelf label (ESL) systems and IoT solutions, originally established as a spin-off from LG. The company leverages extensive heritage in advanced wireless technology to produce robust, energy-efficient display modules for the retail sector.

Their product lineup includes a wide range of electrophoretic displays (EPD) and Zigbee-compliant communication modules that allow retailers to automate pricing, manage inventory information, and enhance store operations. Built on the IEEE 802.15.4 standard, ATEC IoT's systems act as a bridge between store servers and shelf edges, offering reliable bi-directional communication.

• What type of batteries do ATEC IoT ESL tags typically use?

  Many ATEC IoT ESL models, such as the REBL-MZ29T, utilize CR2450 coin batteries. Larger display models may use packs of alkaline batteries. Always refer to the specific owner's manual for your model.

• How do ATEC IoT tags communicate with the store server?

  ATEC IoT tags communicate via a 2.4GHz wireless network using the IEEE 802.15.4 standard (Zigbee) to connect with a Gateway, which relays pricing updates from the central server.

• What is the typical communication range for these shelf labels?

  The maximum communication range is generally around 30 meters under Line of Sight (LoS) conditions, though obstructions in a retail environment may reduce this range.

• What do the different screen colors mean on the ESL tags?

  The Electronic Paper Displays (EPD) typically support 2-color (Black/White) or 3-color (Red/Black/White) output to highlight promotions or alerts. Some models also feature LED indicators for status or location finding.
