The tags management software manages the data of product information, which are sent to the base station via wireless network. Once the information is transmitted to the base station, it will then be sent to the terminal display to update the price labels based on the information inputted into the label management software. A communication network allows the price, or other information, display to be automatically updated whenever a product info is changed. This communication network is the true differentiation and what really makes the Electronic Shelf Labels solution a smart viable solution. The wireless communication must support reasonable range, speed of update, battery life, accuracy and reliability.
