EE202 Specifications manual 1. Abstract This manual provides specifications for the EE202 electronic shelf label (hereafter referred to as “ESL”). 2. Overview The EE202 is an E-ink based ESL with a 2.4GHz radio for data communication. This product uses Direct Sequence Spread Spectrum RF technology that allows for ultra-low power consumption combined with a reduced sensitivity to background noise. That means less interference by other radios that operate in the 2.4GHz band. The radio protocol that is used is based on the IEEE 802.15.4 standard that specifies the physical layer and media access control for low-rate wireless personal area networks.  A development kit is available that consists out of a base station, several EE202 tags and PC software that allows people to quickly test the system and makes it easier to integrate this ESL system into an existing back office system.      5

Static Electricity Air discharge: ± 8 kV MAX (No malfunction)  ± 15 kV MAX (No destruction) Contact discharge: ± 4 kV MAX (No malfunction)  ± 8 kV MAX (No destruction) 4.4. Drop resistance.  There will be no sign of decreased performance after the following drop test: Drop the ESL from 1.8 M above the concrete floor (6 sides, 3 times each). Scratches or discoloration of the casing do not decrease product performance.   Figure 1: Dimensions  6

Electrical Characteristics Conditions: Operating voltage 3.0V unless otherwise specified Parameter Typ Unit Remarks Operating voltage  2.0–3.3   V  Lithium primary battery Sleep current  1  uA When the transmitter and receiver are idle Poll time >=20 seconds See below  The ESL is in sleep mode almost the entire time. The device wakes up at regular intervals (called the poll time) and it then transmits a poll request to the base station. When the base station has no data to send, it acknowledges the poll after which the ESL immediately goes back to sleep. The minimum poll rate is configurable and is set to 20 seconds by default.  A higher poll rate will decrease the power consumption but will increase the response time.   6.2. Battery The power is supplied to the ESL by 2 CR2450 batteries:  • Nominal capacity: 1200 mAh (two times 600mAh) • Nominal voltage: 3.0 V.  • Maximum self-discharge rate: <1% per year • Usable time: 7 years minimum (Update frequency: 4 times per day, poll time 20 seconds)     7
 EE202 Specifications manual       The operating time of the batteries is based on any of the following factors that influence the battery life:  Factor Default values and  estimated averages Correlation * (Higher is better) Influence Polling for data & reporting settings Interval: 20 seconds Retransmissions: 10% Report ratio: 1 to 39  Yes No Yes 61% Display updates 4 updates per day Temperature: 15-25° C No No 20% Out of range /  base station OFF % Not connected: 2% Number of channels: 5 No No 4% Sleep time 99,9% Yes 9% Battery self-discharge 1 % / year No 6%  * The correlation shows whether increasing the listed value increases or decreases the power consumption of the ESLs.   For example: • Increasing the poll interval lowers the power consumption • Turning off the base stations increases the power consumption •  A lower operating temperature increases the power consumption • More display updates per day increase the power consumption  7.

Protocol Modified 802.15.4 (Physical layer and Media Access Control layer).  7.1.1. The physical layer The physical layer (PHY) provides the data transmission service, as well as the interface to the physical layer management entity, which offers access to every layer management function and maintains a database of information on related personal area networks. Thus, the PHY manages the physical RF transceiver and performs channel selection and  8
 EE202 Specifications manual       energy and signal management functions. It operates on the above mentioned frequency band. The PHY layer is 100% compliant and is based on direct sequence spread spectrum (DSSS) technique with a transfer rate of 250 kbit/s. 7.1.2. The medium access control layer The medium access control (MAC) layer enables the transmission of MAC frames through the use of the physical channel. Besides the data service, it offers a management interface and itself manages access to the physical channel. It also controls frame validation, guarantees time slots and handles node associations. Finally, it offers hook points for secure services. The EE202 does not make use of the optional network beaconing, instead it used a polling mechanism to increase power efficiency.  Some changes are made to the standard to allow for more efficient data frames and better power efficiency, especially when nodes are not connected to a base station.  7.2. Security  By default only the image transmission is encrypted using a proprietary encryption protocol. Enhanced encryption/authentication can be requested on demand by loading different firmware on the ESLs in combination with the loading of an encryption key and an additional ESL server module. The protection method for RF-communication is done by 128-bit AES encryption.   8. Labeling  8.1. Product label The product label is affixed to the ESL as shown below.  Figure 2: product label  9
 EE202 Specifications manual        The barcode shows the product serial number. This is a ‘B’ is followed by 10 hexadecimal digits. This serial number is the same as the MAC address in the ESL-label, with the first 6 digits (‘3889DC’) replaced by a ‘B’.   Material: Base + laminate protection against wear. Base: PP film, thickness 80µm, backing with glue. Laminate: PET film, clear, thickness 25µm. The dimensions of the product label are as follows:      10
 EE202 Specifications manual       8.2. Shipment box labels The shipment box labels are made from plain paper and are meant to show the regulatory information on the shipment box as well as the quantity in the box. The label design is shown below. The labels are 150mm*95mm and are made from plain paper with adhesive backing.  Label A shows the PO number, the Quantity in the box and the serial number range, all encoded in barcodes as shown. In case there are two or less missing serial numbers, only label A is required. In case there are more than 2 missing serial numbers missing, label B is required to show the rest of the missing serial numbers.       Figure 3: shipment box labels  11
 EE202 Specifications manual       9. Accessories To mount the ESL onto a rail in a shop, the EE202 can be fitted with a rail attachment system made by HL-display system. This rail attachment accessory can click into a standard rail from           HL-Display and rails are available for nearly all brands of shelves. Please consult a           dealer for details on their offering. The shelftaker that fits the EE202 is available from Opticon as an accessory.         10. Packaging Specifications 10.1. Individual Packaging Specification The ESL’s do not need to be packed separately. To easily pack them, 30 pcs need to be packed in a plastic molder tray:  Figure 5: Individual packaging   Figure 4: HL hinged shelftaker for data strips.  12
 EE202 Specifications manual       10.2. Collective Packaging Specification  Pack the tray with 30 EE202’s in a plastic bag, fold the open end of the bag and fix it with a piece of tape.  Figure 6: Collective packaging 1  Put 10 stacks, containing 300 ESL’s inside a box and stick the shipment box label on the indicated position.   Figure 7: Collective packaging 2  Note: The “RO” mark labeled on the package tray or package box guarantees that the applicable product has passed our test of RoHS restrictions compliance (the restriction of the use of certain hazardous substances in electrical and electronic equipment, 2002/95 EC). However, this document does not have any legal weight in the European Union.   13
