Datalogic M3551-010210 Barcode Scanner Overview
The Magellan 3550HSi 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 3550HSi scanner also has a larger, more intuitive scan zone, enabling more comfortable and efficient sweep scanning.
What barcode formats does the Datalogic M3551-010210 scanner read?
The Magellan 3500HSi scanner reads all standard 1D linear codes including GS1 DataBar codes, as well as 2D codes such as QR Code, Data Matrix, Aztec Code, and MaxiCode. It also decodes stacked codes including GS1 DataBar Composites, GS1 DataBar Expanded Stacked, MicroPDF417, and PDF417. This comprehensive decoding capability makes it ideal for retail and grocery environments where you encounter a wide variety of barcode types.
Is the Datalogic M3551-010210 suitable for reading damaged or poorly printed barcodes?
Yes, the Magellan 3500HSi is specifically designed to handle hard-to-read barcodes, including truncated (shortened), out-of-spec, and poorly printed codes. The scanner's advanced imaging technology and large field-of-view enable reliable reading even in challenging conditions, ensuring maximum productivity in high-volume point-of-sale environments.
What are the connectivity options for the M3551-010210 scanner?
The Datalogic M3551-010210 offers multiple interface options including IBM 46xx, Keyboard Wedge, OEM (IBM) USB, RS-232, and USB connections. It also features a powered RS-232 auxiliary port for additional flexibility in your POS setup. Contact us today to confirm which interface configuration best fits your existing system infrastructure.
What are the operating temperature and environmental specifications for this scanner?
The M3551-010210 operates reliably in temperatures from 0 to 40°C (32 to 104°F) and can be stored or transported between -40 to 70°C (-40 to 158°F). It handles humidity levels from 5-95% non-condensing and provides 25 kV ESD protection against electrical discharge. These robust environmental specifications ensure dependable performance in demanding retail and warehouse environments.
How does the Magellan 3500HSi compare to earlier Magellan scanner models?
The Magellan 3500HSi series continues Datalogic's tradition of high-performance imaging while expanding capabilities beyond traditional laser scanners. It duplicates the speed and large field-of-view of laser scanners while adding superior 2D imaging capabilities, enabling both high-speed sweep and presentation scanning techniques. This makes it more versatile than earlier models for handling diverse barcode types and conditions.
What power consumption should I expect from the M3551-010210?
The scanner has a maximum operating power consumption of 9.9 watts and nominal consumption of 2.8 watts, with sleep mode drawing only 1.8 watts. The AC input requirements are 90-264 VAC at 47-63 Hz. These efficient power specifications help minimize operational costs while delivering reliable high-volume scanning performance. Visit barcodesinc.com for complete technical documentation.
