145 mm x 50 mm
The tray display EP-2 is equipped with an "Electronic Paper Display". In addition to the possibility of displaying multi-line text or numbers, the main feature is the display of barcodes and QR codes. Advantages are especially the fast updating of the displayed information.
The compartment display EP-1 has a graphic, black and white EP display, which offers the possibility to display barcodes and QR codes. As standard, it has an oval eye-catching lamp divided horizontally into two halves, which can display seven possible colours in each half (e.g. for simultaneous work of two order pickers or as a directional function). The available four keys, which are available in different variants or even key versions such as long-travel keys or keys under the front foil, can be used for acknowledgement or for other functions in the Pick by Light system.
