The Magellan™ 3450VSi On-Counter Vertical Presentation Scanner is designed
for small counter retail checkout environments where there is a relatively high
number of transactions with a fairly small number of items per transaction. The
scanner has a reduced footprint, allowing more room for item merchandising of
high margin impulse items clustered around the POS (Point of Sale).
About This Manual
This manual provides advanced user information, including connection, programming, product and cable specifications, and other useful references. For
itional information, such as installation, maintenance, troubleshooting and
add
warranty information, see the Quick Reference Guide (QRG). Copies of other
publications for this product are downloadable free of charge from the website
listed on the back cover of this manual.
On leaving the factory, units are programmed for the most common terminal
d communications settings. If you need to change these settings, custom
an
programming can be accomplished by scanning the bar codes in this guide.
The most common default settings for features/options are indicated by a
green arrow.

or other host device.
Upon completing the connection via the appropriate interface instructions

Introduction to Label Programming
The programming bar code labels contained in this manual will allow you to
customize and configure features and settings for your scanner. To ensure full
compatibility and proper function, use only the programming bar codes in this
manual and other product-specific publications to program scanner features.
This manual has been developed to make it quick and easy for users of all levels to find the information needed to understand and configure features. The
following descriptions will help you to determine where to go from here.
Understanding the Basics
If you have little or no prior experience with programming using bar code
labels, you should review the first few pages of this section to familiarize your
self with the basics of scanner programming before performing any changes to
your configuration.
Using the Programming Bar Codes

Programming
-
The scanner is typically factory-configured with a set of default features standard to the interface type you ordered. After scanning the interface bar code
from the
customize your scanner through use of the instructions and programming bar
codes available in that section and also the
chapters of this manual.
This manual contains feature descriptions and bar codes which allow you to
reconfigure your scanner. Some programming bar code labels, like the label
below for resetting defaults, require only the scan of that single label to enact
the change. Most of the programming labels in this manual, however, require
the scanner to be placed in Programming Mode prior to scanning them. Scan an
Enter/Exit Programming Mode bar code once to enter Programming Mode.
Once the scanner is in Programming Mode, you can scan a number of parame
ter settings before scanning the Enter/Exit Programming Mode bar code a second time, which will then accept your changes, exit Programming Mode, reset
the scanner and return it to normal operation.

How to Capture an Image
There are two methods of capturing images as discussed below:
•Image Capture to a microSD Card by Sca
•Image Capture to the Host by Host Command on page 37
Image Capture to a microSD Card by Scanning a Special Label
Insert a valid microSD card into the scanner (contact technical support if
needed). Scan a capture label and place the item to be captured in front of the
scanner. Press and release the Camera Button. The image will be written to the
microSD card five seconds after button release. See microSD Card on page 325
for more information.
The format, size, contrast, brightness and compression use the configured values.
This Capture label is as follows:

The Capture label will not read unless a microSD card is inserted.
