6.0 APPENDIX A
–Electronic Ink Display
6.1 Introduction
Select TransNEXT models are equipped with an Electronic Ink display.
Electronic Ink is lower power technology ideally suited for a low power applications. It uses reflected
light from the environment and provides a persistent display of the last image written even after power is
removed.
NOTE
Even though the display will hold a persistent image indefinitely, the TransNEXT software will
periodically update the data. When an update cycle occurs, the display will flash momentarily
as the screen is fully erased and a new set of data is written. This is normal operation.
The TransNEXT display provides three key functions organized into three screens: a status page, a
spectrum analyzer, and an antenna alignment tool. Based on which screen is active the TransNEXT will
use a different data update cycle.
Pressing the white circular button on the LED panel allows the user to force a screen update or advance to
a different screen.
6.2 Status Page
The status page is the default. It includes the owner message, uptime, device data, and radio data. The
data refresh rate defaults to 2 minutes. An example is shown below:
6.3 Antenna Alignment Page
The antenna alignment page uses a 10-sec refresh to see the effects of different antenna positions. This is
intended as a simple tool to assist in initial installation.
