viii Magellan™ 3450VSi
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).

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.

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.
