Accepted Answer

Q: Can a single device (such as a smartphone or Raspberry Pi) update multiple Bluetooth ESL tags on a scheduled basis without using a base station?A: No. Currently, Bluetooth digital tags can only be updated through direct point-to-point communication with a smartphone. For scheduled or automated updates, a custom gateway/base station application must be developed to receive update tasks from a backend system and distribute them to the tags.

Q: Do the Bluetooth ESL tags support the Bluetooth SIG ESL standard (Service UUID 0x1857 / PAwR)?A: No. The tags use Sertag's proprietary Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE) communication protocol rather than the Bluetooth SIG ESL standard profile (Service UUID 0x1857 / PAwR).
