INSTALLATION

Route the interface cable from the terminal or host. Plug the AC adapter (if one is used) into a wall outlet and the interface (1/F) cable, then route and attach the 1/F cable to the scanner. Verify operation by presenting
known-good bar codes to the scanner. The unit should beep1 and/or flash its good read LED and send the bar code data to the host or
terminal. If not, refer to the Troubleshooting section of this guide.

The Magellan 900i uses intelligent illumination technology to optimize light levels for a variety of bar code scanner functions including automatic reading of bar codes from printed surfaces, mobile devices and image capture in variable contrast environments.

Optional Magnetic Base Mounting

An optional magnetic swivel base can be used to semi-permanently attach a stand scanner to a flat surface (vertical or horizontal), using the provided adhesive or screw. The scanner can easily be rotated to a desired orientation. The scanner can be detached for portable use by lifting the entire unit as shown in Figure 5 on page 5.

Optional Kiosk Mounting

The Magellan 900i can also be installed into a kiosk, self-checkout or other enclosure. See Integration Guide on the Datalogic website for more information about mounting and sealing considerations.

HOW TO SCAN

Bar codes can be presented to the scanner while it is resting on the stand, or the scanner can be picked up for targeted scanning.

Figure 5. Scanning Methods

Handheld Scanning Mode

To read a barcode using Handheld Scanning Mode:

1. Pick up the scanner and click the button – the aimer LED will illuminate.
2. With the aimer over the barcode to be read, press the button.

Upon a successful read, the lights beside the button will blink bright green and the GreenSpot™ will illuminate, highlighting the decoded barcode.

Center Zone Qualification

The configurable Center Zone can be set to limit the scan area to allow Targeted Scanning of pick lists or other special items. Bar codes will read in any orientation. The scanner will return to full pattern Presentation Mode when set back down, after a configurable time has elapsed.

Scanner Button

The Scanner Button performs multiple functions, depending on how long it is pressed:

Scanner Button Functions

NOTE:

• Volume changes made using the Scanner Button are lost when the scanner is powered down and are reset to the configured setting. If you wish to permanently change the volume, use the special programming labels in the Product Reference Guide.
• In Handheld Mode, the only function of the button is to scan labels. All other button operations are suspended.

LED AND BEEPER INDICATORS

The scanner’s beeper sounds and its green LED illuminates to indicate various functions or errors on the scanner. The tables that follow list these indications. An exception is that the scanner’s functions are programmable, and may or may not be turned on. For example, some indications {such as the power-up beep) can be disabled using programming bar code labels.

PROGRAMMING

On leaving the factory, units are generally programmed with the most common terminal and communications settings. If you need to change these settings, custom programming can be accomplished using one of several methods.
This manual offers programming barcodes for common functions. Additional programming barcodes are available in the PRG, or use Datalogic Aladdin software utility, available on the Datalogic website.

Using Barcodes

After completing the physical connection between the scanner and its host, go to the Programming Bar Codes table on the following pages to locate the interface type for your scanner (such as RS-232, USB, etc.).
Scan a START/END bar code once to enter Programming Mode. After scanning the programming label for the desired interface, scan the START/END barcode a second time to accept your changes, exit Programming Mode and return the scanner to normal operation.

Interface Selection

Reference the Product Reference Guide (PRG) or configuration software (such as Datalogic Aladdin) for additional options. All are available for download at no charge.

Good Read Beep Frequency

Adjusts the scanner’s good read beep to sound at low, medium, or high frequency (controls the beeper’s pitch/tone).
• Low
• Medium
• High

To set this feature:

1. Scan the Enter/Exit Programming Mode bar code.
2. Scan your selection from the bar codes below. You’ll need to cover any unused bar codes on this and the facing page to ensure that the scanner reads only the bar code you intend to scan.
3. Complete the programming sequence by scanning the Enter/Exit Programming Mode bar code.

Good Read Green Spot Duration

Successful reading can be signaled by a good read green spot. Use the bar codes that follow to specify the duration of the good read pointer beam after a good read.

Cell Phone Mode

Sets the level of cell phone mode reading.

Higher cell phone settings will reduce time available for reading printed barcodes.

TROUBLESHOOTING

If the scanner is not operating properly, the following checks should be performed:

Error Codes

If an error is detected, the scanner will sound a long low tone (for three seconds) and flash its LED, indicating a failure. When this occurs, press the Scanner button to hear the error code. If it is configured to do so, the scanner will sound a series of beeps corresponding to the error code and/or flash its LED simultaneous to the beeps. The table below describes what these codes mean and what action should be taken for each.

CLEANING

Exterior surfaces and scan windows exposed to spills, smudges or debris accumulation require periodic cleaning to assure best performance during scanning. Use a clean, lint-free cloth or paper towel dampened with a nonabrasive, mild, water-based cleaner to wipe away stains, smudges, fingerprints, spills, etc. from the scan window and exterior surfaces.

DO NOT use abrasive cleaning agents or abrasive pads to clean this product. Harsh chemicals, disinfectants, and cleansers can cause damage which will adversely  affect scanning performance.

See the next page for a list of Manufacturer Approved Cleaning Materials .
