Operation

Introduction

This manual provides user reference information for the following Magellan™ multi­plane imaging scanners and scanner-scales: Model 939401, Model 939403, Model
939404, Model 939405, and Model 939406.

With digital imagers in all planes, the 9300i/9400i scanner is capable of reading both 1D
and 2D bar codes

Slide or push items through the 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” it from the bottom, left,
right, front and back side of an item, as long as it is fully within the scan zone.

Figure 2. Scan Zones

Scanning Items

For best scanning results...

• Keep items in their natural orientation. Don’t favor any of the scan win-

dows.

• Use the arrow guides to (#6 in Figure 2) to center items over the horizontal

window.

•

Push or slide items instead of lifting them. Avoid unnecessary hand and
wrist movements such as rotation, gripping or twisting, as this can cause
repetitive motion injuries. This helpful technique can also allay the possibil­ity of lifting thousands of pounds per day

If a POS terminal holds the scanner in a disabled state, the scanner
enters limited scanning mode which allows reading of programming
labels but ‘chirps’ other labels.

NOTE

The all-inclusive 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.

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-weighing surfaces. See Figure 3.

Once weighed items have been positioned, enter PLU (price Look-Up) data as described
in your POS system instructions. Item weight is displayed on the Remote Display and/or
the host display.

sense items encroaching past the sides of the weigh platter at counter level or on the
surface of the weigh platter, the speaker will sound a unique tone and/or the ScaleSentry
LED indicator will illuminate to indicate a ScaleSentry error condition. A scale transaction
cannot be completed until the item(s) are repositioned to rest fully on the platter (move
them towards the center), clearing the condition. Reference the PRG for more ScaleSentry
options and details.

Electronic Article Survellance (EAS) Deactivation Options

Deactivation of Sensormatic®, Nedap® 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, deactivation of a
given item happens automatically following its bar code being successfully read.

Sensormatic Decoupled Mode

When in Decoupled Mode, the sales associate must press the Manual EAS Deactivation
button in order to deactivate an item. In this mode, deactivation is independent of the
scanning function.

Sensormatic Hybrid Mode

When in Hybrid Mode, deactivation of a given item happens automatically following its
bar code being successfully read, however, deactivation is independent of the scanning
function.

A Customer Service Scanner (CSS) can
be teamed with the system which
enables mobile commerce (see Figure

6). This unit can be positioned sepa­rately for optimal customer access.
This eliminates the need for an addi­tional scanner, power supply, outlet,
interface cable, POS port and mounting
hardware. The customer can scan bar
codes from their mobile phone screen
or paper coupons while the cashier
continues to scan regular items in par­allel.

Exterior surfaces and scan windows exposed to spills, smudges or debris accumulation
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. from the scan window and exterior surfaces (Figure 5a).
