Section 1
Introduction
This document gives instruction, mechanical details, and design considerations to inte-
grate the Magellan 1100i OEM model (designated as “scanner” or “OEM scanner” in
this manual) specifically into equipment-integrated scanning applications.
Overview
The OEM scanner is a compact, decoded, omni-directional imaging scanner for fixed
position OEM integration, such as price verifiers, kiosks, vending machines, point-of-
sale (POS) terminals, and other equipment-integrated scanning applications. The new
proprietary imaging technology excels at capturing hard-to-read bar codes in omni-
direction orientation.
A typical system using the scanner consists of a host system such as a price verifier or
kiosk. The host system interfaces with the scanner and receives decoded bar code data
produced by the scanner. The illumination LED's in the scanner emit visible light as
well as invisible infrared light. When a bar code passes through the scan volume area,
light is reflected off the bar code. The scanner collects this reflected light, processes it
into a digital signal and decodes it into data that can be used by the host system. The
scanner has different operational modes which can be selected via special programming
bar codes.
Resources in other documents
The OEM scanner contains versions of the scan engine, electrical components, soft-
ware, and configuration programming options as those available on standard Magellan
1100i scanner models. This document is meant to give instruction, mechanical details,
and design considerations to integrate the OEM scanner model only.
Details on the Electrical Interface, Configuration Settings, and Programming are found
in the Magellan 1100i Product Reference Guide.

Introduction
Unpacking the Scanner
The scanner is shipped in custom packaging. Carefully open the package, and inspect
for the following:
• scanner
• power supply (if ordered)
• interface cable (if ordered)
If any parts are damaged or you need additional hardware, please contact Technical
Support.
Scanner Care
The scanner contains sensitive components which require special handling. Datalogic
may not warrant damage due to improper handling.
• Do not open the scanner's case. Doing so will void the warranty.
• Avoid touching the front window. Fingerprints will degrade the scanner's perfor-
mance.
• Only clean the scan window when visual inspection reveals dirt or residue.
Remove lint or foreign material present with filtered compressed air. Remove fin-
gerprints or other residue using clean, cotton-tipped applicators dipped in isopro-
pyl alcohol, or with soft tissues dipped in high-quality lens or eyeglass cleaner. Do
not reuse cotton-tipped applicators or tissues.
• Do not scrub the window.
• Never wipe the window with a dry tissue or applicator.

Section 2
Mounting the Scanner
This section describes how to design the mounting for optimum scanner performance.
General Considerations
A typical system uses the scanner mounted inside a host enclosure, with an opening for
the scanning pattern to exit and read bar codes. The opening should be the size of the
scanner window at a minimum, but only exposing as much of the scanner as necessary.
Although the scanner has been designed to be impact-resistant, it is important to con-
sider the effect of the environment on the scanner. In particular, mounting should min-
imize the possibility of foreign objects coming into contact with the window's surface.
Such contact will damage the window over time and reduce the scanner's performance.
Consideration should also be given to the clearances needed for the scanner’s interface
cable (reference the following section, Cable Routing.
Mounting
System integration is made easy with the OEM scanner's mounting features. The pri-
mary method of mounting to the host enclosure is to attach the scanner using the bot-
tom mounting features. Two threaded mounting features are located on the bottom of
the scanner for use with size M4 screws (4 mm x 0.7 pitch) of your required length.
One additional threaded mounting feature is located at the rear of the scanner which is
intended for host enclosures previously designed to integrate the VS800 scanner. The
maximum installation torque for all mounting screws is 2.3 N-m [20 in-lb]. Appendix
B, Mechanical Specifications, contains mechanical drawings of the scanner including
the position of the mounting features. Host enclosure mounting holes should be
4.3mm [0.17"] in diameter.
The scanner can be mounted upside down with no loss in scanning performance.
Mounting the Scanner Standalone
The OEM scanner is not intended for use in a standalone application. This model is
intended to be integrated inside a host enclosure. Standard Magellan 1100i models
should be used when a standalone application is required.
Integration Manual 2-1

Mounting the Scanner
Cable Routing
The mounting design should also take into consideration the clearances needed for the
interface cable. This cable should be routed internal to the host enclosure as much as
possible. It is recommended to use a flat cable or round cable without a large strain relief
so that the cable can be routed away from the scanner in one of the following directions.
As shown in Figure 2-1, the interface cable can be routed out the rear or bottom sur-
faces of the scanner.

Scanner Ventilation
When mounting the scanner inside a secondary enclosure, it is important to have
proper ventilation to ensure that the scanner termperature does not exceed the maxi-
mum range as listed in Appendix A, Technical Specifications. The reliability of the
scanner may be compromised if the temperature range is not maintained.
Integrating the Scanner to Read at the Proper Distance
When deciding how to mount the OEM scanner, there are many criteria that must be
considered. First, there are minimum and maximum distances that the bar code can be
from the front of the scanner to be properly read, depending on the size of the bar code.
These distances, or depth of field, are specified in Appendix A, Technical Specifica-
tions.
Note that the depth of field begins 13mm [0.5"] from the front of the scanner. This
means that bar codes may not be read if they are within the range of 0-13mm [0-0.5"]
from the front of the scanner. To ensure that a bar code can not be placed too close to
the scanner, it is recommended that the scanner is mounted at least 13mm [0.5"] from
the outer surface of the host enclosure, to ensure that bar codes will be within the scan
volume.

Design of the Scanner Opening
Second, the scanner must be positioned so that the scan volume and illumination light
will cover the entire bar code. The scan volume is shown in Figure 2-2. The combina-
tion of the Scan Volume and the illumination light is called the Field of View. Design-
ing around the scanner Field of View is explained more in the following section, Design
of the Scanner Opening.
Figure 2-2. Scanning Volume
13mm
[0.5"]
147mm [5.79"]
94mm [3.70"]
Scan Volume @ 165mm [6.5"]
Design of the Scanner Opening
A typical system uses the scanner mounted inside a host enclosure with an opening for
the scanner Field of View to exit the scanner window and read bar codes. If the scanner
is flush against the opening, it should be the size of the scanner window at a minimum,
but only exposing as much of the front surface of the scanner as necessary. Additional
clearance in the opening can also be considered for the speaker opening.
The design and placement of the scanner opening within a host enclosure is critical for
optimum system performance. Use the detailed dimensions shown in Appendix B,
Mechanical Specifications, to design the host enclosure and scanner opening along
with the following guidelines.
• The opening must not block any of the outgoing illumination light, described by
dimensions of the scanner Field of View.
• Ensure that there are no reflective surfaces around the area of the scanner opening.
• The minimum opening size must increase as the distance between the scanner and
the window increases. This is necessary to accommodate the width and height of
the scan volume.
• The opening or other parts of the host enclosure must not enter the Field of View
in order to allow the bar code image to be captured by the scanner.
If all the red illumination LED's remain on when the scanner is installed in the host enclosure,
then something is blocking the Field of View.
NOTE
Integration Manual 2-3

Mounting the Scanner
Integrating the Scanner Behind a Window
It is not recommended to place any type of additional window between the scanner and the bar
code to be read. The addition of a host enclosure window will significantly degrade scanner
performance. This is due to the additional optical reflective surfaces that will cause interfer-
CAUTION ence with the imaging technology.
It is recommended to conduct scan performance testing with any additional window to
determine if the performance level is acceptable for the application.
• Window material should be transparent with 92% transmission to wavelength
625nm and 850nm.
• Flat window only.
• The window should be as thin as possible (thickness less than 2mm).
• The window should be as close to the LED baffle or original window as possible to
avoid LED ghost image.
Performance degradation may include:
• The scan module will not read very low contrast labels.
• Red LEDs flash or red LEDs are always on. In this case, the scanner module's near
field and far field switching thresholds may need to be adjusted.
• The scan module will not be able to wake up especially in low ambient light (typi-
cally <100Lux). In this case, the scan module may need its wakeup sensitivity set-
ting increased
ESD Protection
The host enclosure design must provide adequate ESD protection for the scanner. Ide-
ally, static discharge should not be allowed to discharge to the scanner. The preferred
method to prevent static discharge is to provide a long discharge path to all circuits.
The scanner is intended to be mounted inside a host enclosure. Only the front surface
should be exposed in order to read bar codes. This is to protect the rear interface con-
nector area which can be susceptible to static discharge. Interface cables should also not
be powered up when inserted into the scanner. It is also recommended that any metal
mounting surfaces for the scanner must be electrically grounded.
Static discharge (ESD) testing is recommended for the entire system integration to
ensure proper ESD protection.
Proper ESD protection should be used at the time of installation and servicing of the
scanner or the host equipment.
