OUNTING PECIFICATIONS Enclosure Specifications The IS4800 scan engine series was specifically designed for integration into custom housings for OEM applications. The scan engine’s performance will be adversely affected or permanently damaged when mounted in an unsuitable enclosure. THIS DEVICE DOES NOT COMPLY WITH 21 CFR 1040. USE ONLY AS COMPONENT.
OUNTING PECIFICATIONS Enclosure Specifications Printed Circuit Board (PCB) Component Clearance : When designing the IS4800 into the final product, be sure to eliminate ARNING all possible means of shorting Resistors R3 and R25 in the IS4800. A short could enable the scan engine to emit Class 3R radiation. Any CDRH filing will require a disclosure of the design ensuring a method to mitigate a potential short.
OUNTING PECIFICATIONS Enclosure Specifications Output Window Properties Please contact a Metrologic representative to coordinate the best window material required to maintain laser safety requirements for your application. An improperly placed window has the potential to seriously reduce the scan engine’s performance. Careful consideration must be made when designing the output window’s distance and angle placement...
OUNTING PECIFICATIONS Enclosure Specifications Output Window Coatings • Anti-Reflection An anti-reflective coating can be applied to the inside and/or outside of the window to reduce the possibility of internal beam reflections interfering with the scan performance of the engine. If an anti-reflective coating is applied it is recommended that it be on both sides of the window providing a 0.5% maximum reflectivity on each side from 640 to 690 namometers at the nominal window tilt angle.

ENSE IMING Timing Diagram The Timing Diagram (see Figure below) illustrates the correct power up procedure to ensure that the laser diode is not damaged upon start up of the unit. Upon start up, both scan Enable and Laser Enable are to be held high. In this state, both the scan mirror and the laser diode are not functional.
ENSE IMING Barcode Element Time Calculation Realization of the full depth of field for all barcodes given in the specification is based on the ability of the decoding hardware to resolve a varying range of minimum element times. The minimum element time calculation for a given barcode size at a given distance is shown in Equation 1(below).
The specifications required for agency approval are not obtainable until the microQuest engine is used in its final configuration. Metrologic is unable to fulfill these requirements because the scan engine will operate differently depending upon where it is used as a component. The following information concerning the scan engine appears on the shipping label: THIS DEVICE DOES NOT COMPLY WITH 21 CFR 1040.
ASER AND RODUCT AFETY Europe The CE Mark is required on products which incorporate the IS4813 and the IS4815 scan engines if the products are to be imported into European Economic Area (EEA) countries. Use of the CE Mark requires compliance with directives and standards dependent upon the type of product.
United States Laser Safety To assist with the FDA filing requirements (refer to Regulatory Requirements), Metrologic has registered the scan engine with the FDA as a component. Customers can contact CDRH at the following address: Food and Drug Administration Center for Devices and Radiological Health...
