Introduction The Magellan 9800i is a multi-plane imaging bar code scanner with an optional integrated scale, designed to serve in supermarket peripheral lanes. This manual describes its basic operation. For more detailed information about setup, instal- lation and programming, see the Product Reference Guide for this product. These manuals are provided in Portable Document Format (PDF) for viewing and print- ing from the website listed on the back cover of this manual.
Certification Label At the time the local scale regulatory authority certifies the scanner/scale for use, a certification label is affixed to the unit. Depending upon the size and shape of Figure the label, placement can be made in one of the locations shown in Figure 1.
Scanning Items Slide or push items through the SurroundScan scan zone in a right-to-left or left-to-right movement. The scanner is equally efficient at scanning items in either direction. It is unnecessary to shift the position of the bar code, as the scanner can “read”...
Scan Motion The SurroundScan™ scan pattern and advanced FirstStrike™ decoding software ensures the scanner will read most hard-to-read codes quickly and without a need to particularly reorient items. It is important to verify that the platter has been installed flush with the counter- top to enhance slide-through scanning (see Figure 1).

Cleaning Exterior surfaces and scan windows exposed to spills, smudges or debris accu- mulation require periodic cleaning to assure best performance during scanning and weighing operations. Use a clean, lint-free cloth or paper towel dampened with a nonabrasive, mild, water-based window cleaner to wipe away stains, smudges, fingerprints, spills, etc.
Weighing Items (Scale Models) The unique platter design allows you to place items anywhere on its surface, including leaning atop its vertical section, to be weighed accurately. In addition, the Produce Rail allows items to rest above the counter and other non-weigh- Figure ing surfaces.
Top Down Reader (TDR) Option The scanner’s exclusive Top Down Reader (TDR) is an optional feature of the scanner, and is available in two different heights in order to provide flexibility for installations. The TDR can perform multiple functions: • The TDR contributes significantly to the overall bar code read zone by scanning items from a unique top-down angle.
Electronic Article Survellance (EAS) Deactivation Options Deactivation of Sensormatic® or Checkpoint® EAS tags is an optional function. The scanner must be expressly enabled to perform in either capacity. Sensormatic Coupled Mode When the scanner is configured to use Coupled EAS Deactivation Mode, deactiva- tion of a given item happens automatically following its bar code being success- fully read.

LED and Beeper Indications The scanner’s beeper sounds and its lamps and indicator LEDs illuminate to indicate various functions or errors. The tables in this section list some of these indications. Reference the PRG for a more complete listing. One exception to the behaviors listed in the tables is that some functions are programmable, and may or may not be turned on.
