Page 15 of 275 NFCAll labels can be ordered with the NFC option. Labels with integrated NFC tag can beidentified by the nameplate on the back of the label.FIGURE 1-1: Label with integrated NFCchip5.1 FunctioningIf a label with integrated NFC chip is read you’ll be automatically redirected to the followingURI:http(s)://nfc.imagotag.com/<Label-ID> [e.g. https://nfc.imagotag.com/A5004824]FIGURE 1-2: NFCredirection to nfc.imagotag.comThis URI/information can then be used as follows:Usage of the URIfor your own developed application or redirection/forwarding to a specificURI.5.1.1 ApplicationYou have the possibility of using the read NFC tags/URI to load the associated productinformation from the ESL system and then to transmit specific information to the NFCreadingdevice e.g. via push. The required application needs to be developed by the customer.Example - Digital camera accessoriesA customer starts your application and reads with his smartphone a NFC label which belongsto a digital camera. The developed application retrieves the product information data fromthe ESL system and pushes matching accessories for this digital camera model to itssmartphone.
Page 16 of 27Example - Recipe informationA customer starts your application and reads with his smartphone a NFC label which belongsto pasta. The developed application retrieves the product information data from the ESLsystem and pushes corresponding recipes to its smartphone.5.1.2 Redirection/ForwardingIf you don't want to develop your own application to handel NFCreadings there's thepossibility to request a redirection for your specific NFClabel range to a URIof your choice.The Redirecting is a paid service. The direct delivery to the customer or reporting of thedelivery by the partner are a basic requirement at the moment.Example - Customer's websiteYou have bought a number of NFC tags and want to redirect to its website when reading thetags.Write an email with your forwarding request (relevant labels, customer, URI)tosupport@imagotag.com. The support team will manage the request and gives you feedbackas soon as the forwarding works.E.g. Customer XY, all purchased G1 NFClabels, forward to http://www.myownwebsite.com5.2 Ordering InformationPlease contact our sales team for ordering information and pricing at sales@imagotag.com.

Page 18 of 277 Storage and warehousingWe strongly recommend to observe the following points in order to ensure the best operation,functioning and battery lifetime:lStorage temperatureo-10° C to 40° CoOptimal operating and storage temperature at 21 ° ClHumidityo10% to 85% (non-condensing)lIt isn't allowed to operate an imagotag AP-2010, MAP-2014 or LANCOM L-151E/L-322E in the warehouse or in radio coverage area.oPermanent connection attempts the label to the access point leading to high bat-tery consumptionlFIFO (First In First Out)lDiffer on base of the package IDslThe maximum storage time of labels should not exceed 0.5-1 yearIf you not comply with these limits mentioned above, the specified battery runtime can vary.
Page 19 of 278 Battery lifetimeFor the definition of N update/day following requirements apply to reach the specifiedlifetime:lThe radio sync quality between labels and access points has to be “PERFECT” or“GOOD”.oTo comply with these specifications, a Site Survey according to imagotagguidelines is necessary.lThe declared number of updates per day is an average value applied on on the specifiedlifetime.oIt’s not allowed to exceed this number more than 20 updates per day.lThe most of the time the operation temperature of the ESLs has to be 21° C.lTo reach the specified lifetime, the requirements regarding see Storage and ware-housing on page 18 also needs to be observed.lPerforming less than specified updates doesn't extend the battery lifetime significantly
Page 20 of 279 Battery Replacement9.1 AudienceOnly persons with the following knowledge are allowed to replace the battery:lBatterylElectronic assemblies like circuit boardlCompliance of the instructions9.2 InstructionslRisk of explosion through incorrect battery replacement.lUse battery pack exclusive provided from the company imagotag GmbH.lKeep attention that your hands are dry before you start with the replacement.lDon’t use sharps to open the label.lDon’t use your fingernails to open the label.lDon’t touch the circuit board of the open label.9.3 Steps9.3.1 G1 1.6 red1. Press a coin in the coin slot on the back side of the label (hidden behind the nameplate).2. Turn the coin with pressure contraclockwise.3. Take away the battery cover.4. Take out the coin cell.5. Put in the new coin cell.6. Put the battery cover back on the label.7. Press a coin in the coin slot on the battery cover and turn it clockwise.9.3.2 All labels except G1 1.6 red1. G1 2.2 red, G1 2.6 red and G1 2.7 (red): Press both snap-in-mounts of the battery cover(backside of the label) until the battery cover detaches. Afterwards take the batterycover from the label. G1 4.4 (red) and G1 7.4 (red): Use the imagotag battery cover toolto open the battery cover. Afterwards take the battery cover from the label.2. Pull the white plug out of the socket, don’t pull on the cable.3. Take out the battery pack.4. Put in the new battery pack.5. Push the white plug in the socket.6. Put the battery cover on the label casing (the arrows have to show to each other)7. Check if the power status of the label switch to "GOOD" otherwise contact the imag-otag support (support@imagotag.com).We can also provide some battery replacement videos, for more information about that pleasecontact the imagotag support (support@imagotag.com).
