2. Relay
Figure 4 Three views of relay
As shown in Figure 2, the purpose of the relay is to increase the signal coverage. Because the food court or food street area is relatively large, coupled with the influence of tables and chairs and the number of people during peak hours, if the customer holds the restaurant card and waits, if they leave the store Too far, the signal of the menu cannot be sent successfully. At this time, the information can be sent to the relay as a relay, and the relay can then send the information to the corresponding store. The physical map of the relay is shown in Figure 4.
3. Host
Figure 5 Host button icon
Each restaurant is equipped with a host, which can carry multiple menus, and a single host can carry more than 2,000 menus, which fully meets the needs of Food City. When the restaurant gets 1 host and 20 menus as standard, as long as the host is powered on, the system can work immediately without configuration.
Four, system advantages
1. No installation required for wireless transmission
The host adopts plug-and-play 5V power supply, and communicates with the menu through wireless ZigBee networking. The repeater adopts 220V plug-and-play, no wiring is required, which saves the trouble of installation and improves the stability of the system.
2. System stable networking
The system adopts ZigBee’s wall penetration and networking characteristics to make the host, relay and menu form a stable communication network. Signals can be transmitted to each other through the network to ensure that the signal is accurately sent to the corresponding menu.
3. No need to recharge, portable and fast
The entire system adopts a low-power design, the menu does not need to be charged, it is small and thin, and does not occupy the front desk space. It makes the waiter use the same as an ordinary menu, and it is very easy to use. In addition, the menu has no charging port, which is waterproof, moisture-proof and rust-proof, making the system work more stable.
4. Anti-theft and anti-drop
When the menu leaves the host’s signal service area, the built-in buzzer of the menu keeps beeping to remind customers to return the menu. Only when the menu returns to the host’s service area, the menu will stop beeping to achieve the effect of anti-theft. In addition, there is anti-vibration protection inside the menu. Considering that the customer may accidentally drop the menu, the anti-vibration can provide a good protection effect.
