The Magellan 3450VSi scanner offers many of the features that have made the Magellan family of imaging scanners so successful, including seamless 1D and 2D decoding, solid state electronics, image capture, compact size and easy service access for software updates or configuration changes. It also benefits from the advances made in imaging, illumination, processors and software that Datalogic has brought to the multi-plane market with the Magellan 9800i and 9400i scanners.
Improvements in both hardware and software enable a significant reduction in the brightness of the illumination while improving throughput, depth of field, and speed to read. The gentle, unobtrusive illumination reduces both direct and reflected illumination visible to users. This ensures a comfortable work environment and all day productivity. The Magellan 3450VSi scanner also has a larger, more intuitive scan zone, enabling more comfortable and efficient sweep scanning.
What barcode types does the Datalogic M3450-010210-00403 scanner read?
The Datalogic Magellan 3450VSi reads both 1D linear codes (including GS1 DataBar) and 2D codes such as QR Code, Data Matrix, Aztec Code, and MaxiCode. It also decodes stacked codes like PDF417 and GS1 DataBar Composites, making it versatile for retail and warehouse environments. This imaging technology allows it to handle truncated, out-of-spec, and poorly printed codes that traditional laser scanners struggle with.
Is the Datalogic M3450 compatible with my POS system?
Yes, the Datalogic M3450-010210-00403 offers multiple interface options including USB, RS-232, Keyboard Wedge, and IBM 46xx compatibility, ensuring broad POS system integration. The scanner includes a 4.6m USB OEM cable with power, allowing it to work with most modern point-of-sale terminals and retail systems. For specific system compatibility questions, contact us today and our team can verify integration with your existing setup.
Can this scanner be mounted in a counter or on a wall?
Yes, the Datalogic M3450-010210-00403 includes both counter and wall mounting hardware, making it flexible for various retail checkout configurations. The scanner's compact dimensions (15.2 x 15.2 x 8.7 cm) and lightweight design (0.79 kg) allow for easy installation in tight spaces. This presentation-style scanner supports both high-speed sweep and hands-free presentation scanning techniques for maximum productivity.
What are the environmental operating conditions for this scanner?
The Datalogic M3450 operates reliably in temperatures from 0 to 40°C (32 to 104°F) and tolerates humidity levels of 5-95% non-condensing, making it suitable for most retail and warehouse environments. It has 25 kV ESD protection and can handle ambient light conditions from 0 to 86,100 lux without performance degradation. The scanner's robust design ensures consistent performance in demanding point-of-sale environments.
What makes the Magellan 3450VSi better than older laser scanner models?
The Magellan 3450VSi imaging technology duplicates the speed and large field-of-view of traditional laser scanners while adding superior 2D barcode capabilities and the ability to read damaged or poorly printed codes that laser scanners cannot decode. Unlike laser scanners, this imager uses LED illumination, making it safer for retail environments and more reliable on reflective surfaces. The combination of high-speed performance with expanded code-reading capability makes it ideal for high-volume point-of-sale operations.
What power consumption should I expect from this scanner?
The Datalogic M3450 consumes a maximum of 9.9 watts during operation and only 2.8 watts nominally, with sleep mode drawing just 1.8 watts, making it energy-efficient for 24/7 retail environments. The AC power input accepts 90-264 VAC at 47-63 Hz, providing flexibility across different electrical infrastructures.
