Product Warranty (2 years)
Advantech warrants to you, the original purchaser, that each of its products will be
free from defects in materials and workmanship for two years from the date of purchase.
This warranty does not apply to any products which have been repaired or altered by
persons other than repair personnel authorized by Advantech, or which have been
subject to misuse, abuse, accident or improper installation. Advantech assumes no
liability under the terms of this warranty as a consequence of such events.
Because of Advantech’s high quality-control standards and rigorous testing, most of
our customers never need to use our repair service. If an Advantech product is defective, it will be repaired or replaced at no charge during the warranty period. For outof-warranty repairs, you will be billed according to the cost of replacement materials,
service time and freight. Please consult your dealer for more details.
If you think you have a defective product, follow these steps:
1. Collect all the information about the problem encountered. (For example, CPU
speed, Advantech products used, other hardware and software used, etc.) Note
anything abnormal and list any onscreen messages you get when the problem
occurs.
2. Call your dealer and describe the problem. Please have your manual, product,
and any helpful information readily available.
3. If your product is diagnosed as defective, obtain an RMA (return merchandize
authorization) number from your dealer. This allows us to process your return
more quickly.
4. Carefully pack the defective product, a fully-completed Repair and Replacement
Order Card and a photocopy proof of purchase date (such as your sales receipt)
in a shippable container. A product returned without proof of the purchase date
is not eligible for warranty service.
5. Write the RMA number visibly on the outside of the package and ship it prepaid
to your dealer.

B digital device, pursuant to part 15 of the FCC Rules. These limits are designed to
provide reasonable protection against harmful interference in a residential installation. This equipment generates, uses and can radiate radio frequency energy and, if
not installed and used in accordance with the instructions, may cause harmful interference to radio communications. However, there is no guarantee that interference
will not occur in a particular installation. If this equipment does cause harmful interference to radio or television reception, which can be determined by turning the equipment off and on, the user is encouraged to try to correct the interference by one or
more of the following measures:
Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna.
Increase the separation between the equipment and receiver.
Connect the equipment into an outlet on a circuit different from that to which the
receiver is connected.
Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV technician for help.
IMPORTANT NOTE:
FOR MOBILE DEVICE USAGE (>20cm/low power)
Radiation Exposure Statement:
This equipment complies with FCC radiation exposure limits set forth for an uncon-
trolled environment. This equipment should be installed and operated with minimum
distance 20cm between the radiator & your body.
FOR COUNTRY CODE SELECTION USAGE (WLAN DEVICES)

15.19 statement has to also be available on the label: This device complies with Part
15 of FCC rules. Operation is subject to the following two conditions: (1) this device
may not cause harmful interference and (2) this device must accept any interference
received, including interference that may cause undesired operation.
OEM Integration Instructions：
This device is intended only for OEM integrators under the following conditions：
The module can be used to installation in other host. The antenna must be installed such
that 20 cm is maintained between the antenna and users, and the transmitter module may
not be colocated
with any other transmit or antenna. The module shall be only used with the integral
antenna(s) that has been originally tested and certified with this module.
As long as 3 conditions above are met, further transmitter test will not be required.
However, the OEM integrator is still responsible for testing their end-product for any
additional compliance requirement with this module installed (for example, digital device
emission, PC peripheral requirements, etc.)

Introduction
1.3 System implementation
EPD device can be applied to different applications and the system integrator can
control the RESTful API for different scenarios.
1.3.1 Advantech EPD-132 & ePaper Manager Solution
Wireless EPD System consists of ePaper Manager, Gateway, Router and EPD
device.
The ePaper Manager provides Web GUI to management the wireless EPD
device.
The Gateway/embedded computer are responsible for communication between
ePaper Manager and EPD device.
The EPD is a device with ePaper, EPD controller and wireless connectivity.
Advantech provides a total solution. From the system architecture, EPD-132 is at the
end node of the system. Developers can apply Advantech WISE-3610W to connect
to the ePaper manager which is installed in Advantech Embedded Computer /
ARK2250L. There are multifunction RESTful API on ePaper Manager for developers
to integrate with vertical market applications eg. retail, smart warehouse, factory, hospitals and transportation.

2. Password: ePaperePaper
b. WISE-3610w login as shown below (root/ePaper)
3. Power on EPD-132
a. Plug the Micro USB to provide the power.
4. EPD-132 join the network with SSID:
a. Setup the SSID to join the network with APP in one device, refer to Chapter
4.3.
53 EPD-132 Board User Manual
Note! 1. The default SSID on WISE-3610W & EPD-132 will be the following:
SSID: ADV-ePaper, Password: ePaperePaper
2. Once WISE-3610W & EPD-132 powers on with the default SSID/
Password setting, EPD-132 will connect to WISE-3610W. EPD-132
will set the default Agent IP according to the Domain from gateway after connection.
3. EPD-132 may have changed the default SSID/Password in some
cases and lost the connection with the gateway. Users need to
maintain the EPD setting list in WISE-3610W before using the BLE
tool to re-config the EPD-132's SSID/Password.
4. EPD-132 connects to ePaper manager of the ARK2250L through
WISE-3610W's Agent. So we need to setup the Gateway's IP
where the Agent is on EPD setting page, and EPD-132 can connect to the Agent via customer’s AP router.
5. In summary, if EPD-132 only needs to change SSID/Password,
users can use the BLE tool. If EPD-132 needs to setup the Agent
IP connect to ePaper manager of ARK2250L, users need to use
the tool on WISE-3610W refer to #4.2.6. with WISE-3610W/EPD132 default setting: SSID: ADV -ePaper, Password: ePaperePaper.
Configure Wi-fi setting through BLE
BLE-WiFi introducer service is a demonstration to setup SSID and password to join a
