VGIDEBT ViewTag User manual

ViewTagTM Specification Digital Luggage Tag with existing DESCRIPTION ViewTag is a smart baggage tag equipped with Bluetooth Low Energy, RFID, and a bi-

state display. The ViewTag is backwards compatible airport infrastructure and barcode scanners, yet is also designed with future compatibility in mind. Using a smartphone app, Andriod or iOS, passengers can send their itinerary information via Bluetooth LE to their permanent digital luggage tag. The bi-stable display allows the ViewTag to consume virtually no power when in-between updates, resulting in a battery lifetime of over 500 writes. By allowing passengers to write this information digitally before they arrive at the airport, the ViewTag can significantly reduce the amount of time spent at check-in. The ViewTag is water and dust resistant. The strap allows for secure attachment while also allowing the tag to be interchangeable with bags.

If the power button on the ViewTag is pressed and the LED blinks, and a connection isnt established within 15 seconds, the ViewTag will turn off and stop attempting connection. If the power button is pressed and the LED does not illuminate, the user must wait at least 15 seconds before attempting another connection. BLANKING THE SCREEN In order to clear the ViewTags display, the user must press and hold the power button on the ViewTag for approximately 2 seconds (the blue LED will double blink at 2 seconds), release the button, then press the button once more (without holding it). This will blank the bi-stable display and clear it of any existing data. RECALLING THE SCREEN In order to recall the ViewTags display information after blanking, the user must press and hold the power button on the ViewTag for approximately 4 seconds (the LED will double blink at 2 seconds and again at 4 seconds), release the button, then press the button once more (without holding it). This will recall the bi-stable display and redisplay the information. RFID The airline is capable of updating the tag based on itinerary changes. Via RFID UHF readers, the airline can update the ViewTags RFID memory. When in the presence of an RFID field, the ViewTag will automatically check for updates to its RFID memory and update the display information if required. DEACTIVATION DURING FLIGHT The ViewTag is in sleep mode until the power button is pressed. All radio communications are disabled to save power. Radio function is only active on a user initiated button press.
