Abstract
A method for error free initialization of a display tag includes providing a display tag, scanning the display tag with a near field source to cause the display tag to generate identification indicia, storing the identification indicia if only a single display tag generates that identification indicia, scanning the barcode of a product to be associated with the display tag, and associating, in a database, the identification indicia of the display tag with the barcode of the product to be associated with that display tag.
