The Magellan™ 3500HSi series of scanners continue the Datalogic tradition of high performance imaging for the high-volume point-of-sale. By duplicating the speed and large field-of-view of laser scanners and expanding the capabilities of imaging, the 3500HSi scanners provide outstanding performance on hard-to-read bar codes and seamless reading of a wide variety of bar codes. This Magellan scanner enables both high speed sweep and presentation scanning techniques ensuring maximum productivity and ergonomic ease, even with truncated (shortened), out-of-spec or poorly printed codes.
ENHANCING THE CUSTOMER EXPERIENCE
The optional Magellan Customer Service Scanner (CSS) enables retailers to easily engage their customers in mobile commerce programs, allowing them to scan bar codes from mobile phone screens or paper coupons while the cashier continues to scan regular items in parallel, resulting in a significant reduction in total transaction time.
ENTERPRISE FEATURES
Remote management is supported for OPOS, JavaPOS, Toshiba Remote Management with IBM Systems Director® and Wavelink® Avalanche®. Additional capabilities are available with the Value Added Features included in every Magellan scanner.
What scanning capabilities does the DataLogic M3551-010200 offer?
The Magellan 3550HSi in this model delivers 2D imaging with Digimarc capability, enabling high-performance scanning of both standard and hard-to-read barcodes. It supports both high-speed sweep and presentation scanning techniques, ensuring reliable reads even on truncated, out-of-spec, or poorly printed codes. This makes it ideal for high-volume point-of-sale environments where barcode quality varies.
What interfaces and connectivity options are available with this scanner?
The DataLogic M3551-010200 offers multiple connectivity options including OEM (IBM) USB, RS-232, USB Keyboard, and USB Com interfaces. It also features a powered Type A USB auxiliary port for additional flexibility in POS system integration. This multi-interface design ensures compatibility with most existing point-of-sale and retail systems.
Is the DataLogic M3551-010200 suitable for warehouse and logistics applications?
While the Magellan 3550HSi is primarily designed as a fixed in-counter scanner for high-volume point-of-sale environments, its robust 2D imaging technology and ability to read damaged or poorly printed codes make it valuable for logistics operations. However, for dedicated warehouse scanning applications, we recommend consulting with our team to identify the optimal fixed or mobile solution for your specific workflow.
What are the physical dimensions and weight of this scanner?
The DataLogic M3551-010200 measures 15.2 cm (6.0 in) in length and width, with a below-counter depth of 8.7 cm (3.4 in). It weighs only 0.98 kg (2.16 lb), making it a compact solution for counter-mounted installations. Mount and cable accessories are sold separately and available from us.
What optional features and add-ons are available for the M3551-010200?
The scanner supports optional EAS (Electronic Article Surveillance) integration with Checkpoint Systems and Sensormatic systems, diagnostic reporting, host download capabilities, and Magellan ULE scripting for advanced customization. Standard counter mounts are available separately, including models with fill kit options. Contact us today to discuss which value-added features best suit your retail or logistics operation.
How does the DataLogic Magellan 3550HSi compare to older laser scanner technology?
The Magellan 3550HSi imaging technology duplicates the speed and large field-of-view of traditional laser scanners while expanding capabilities to handle problematic barcodes that laser systems struggle with. This 2D imager provides superior performance on truncated codes and damaged barcodes while maintaining the fast scan rates required for high-volume environments.
