2 Description
APG2-PCIA-B module is responsible for transmitting and receiving messages from SES-
Imagotag electronic shelf label (ESL) network.
It cannot work standalone and must be plugged into another device (host device), usually
Access-point (AP), which supports the module. Configuration and startup of the module is
done over the host device. This manual is not covering this because it is device dependent.
Separate instruction manual is provided with each supporting host device.
NOTE: This module is not standard mPCIe device!
Module just has same form factor as mPCIe.
It is compatible only with dedicated devices.
