Introduction
The Magellan™ 1500i 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 foot-
print, allowing more room for item merchandising of high margin impulse
items clustered around the POS (Point of Sale).
The Magellan 1500i uses intelligent illumination technology to optimize light
levels for a variety of barcode scanner functions including automatic reading of
barcodes from printed surfaces, mobile devices and image capture in variable
contrast environments.

Connecting the Scanner

Connecting the Scanner

The scanner kit you ordered to match your interface should provide a compati-
ble cable for your installation. Alternatively, if your scanner receives Power Off
the Terminal (POT) it might be possible to connect using a cable from a previ-
ously existing installation (except for USB). Check with your technical support
representative about compatibility before connecting. Use the appropriate
instructions below when you’re ready to connect the scanner to the terminal, PC
or other host device.
Upon completing the connection via the appropriate interface instructions
below, proceed to the Interface Related Features section of this manual and
scan the barcode to select the correct interface type.

RS-232 Serial Connection — Turn off power to the terminal/PC and connect the
scanner to the terminal/PC serial port via the RS-232 cable as shown in Figure
1. If the terminal will not support POT (Power Off the Terminal) to supply scan-
ner power, use the approved power supply (AC Adapter).

Programming
About Programming your Scanner
The scanner is typically factory-configured with a set of default features stan-
dard to the interface type you ordered. The scanner’s programmable feature
settings can be modified to accommodate your system’s unique requirements.
If you need to change these settings, custom programming can be accom-
plished using one of the following methods:
Programming Barcodes — The programming bar code labels contained in this
manual will allow you to customize and configure features and settings for your
scanner. Go to "Programming with Barcodes" on page 9 to get started.
Scanalyzer Configuration Utility — An additional programming option is to use
Datalogic’s Scanalyzer software configuration utility, available for free down-
load from the Datalogic website. See "Datalogic Scanalyzer" on page 13 for
more information.

When you program the scanner using either of the methods listed
above, the scanner will store the changes until reprogrammed or
returned to factory defaults.
NOTE

8 Magellan™ 1500i
 Programming with Barcodes

Programming with Barcodes

If you have little or no prior experience with programming using barcode labels,
you should review the next few pages of this section to familiarize yourself with
the basics of scanner programming before performing any changes to your
configuration.
Most scanner programming falls within general categories:
General Scanner Features — features common to all interface types. Examples
include beeper adjustments such as volume and length, read verification set-
tings, etc.
Imaging Features — settings specific to Imaging
Interface Related Features — mandatory settings necessary to allow communi-
cation. Examples of these settings are: RS-232 baud rate and parity.

Ensure that your planned modifications are compatible with the cur-
rent interface.
NOTE
Data Editing — Additional information sent to the host computer along with the
barcode data. This combination of barcode data and supplementary
user-defined data is called a “message string.” The features in this chapter can
be used to build specific user-defined data into a message string.
Symbology Programming — Gives the scanner the capability to autodiscriminate
as few as one, and as many as all available symbologies. For optimal scanner
performance enable only those symbologies required. Additionally the scanner
may be programmed with the standard options available for the various sym-
bologies, such as check digit, minimum label length, fixed and variable length
bar codes, etc.
The barcode programming section lists the factory default settings for each of
the menu commands for the standard RS-232 interface, indicated by a green
arrow. Exceptions to default settings for the other interfaces can be found in
Appendix D, Factory Default Settings.
If you experience difficulties, have questions or require additional information,
contact your local distributor, or call your dealer or sales representative.

Product Reference Guide 9

About Programming your Scanner

Getting Started
After scanning the interface barcode from the Interface Related Features sec-
tion, you can select other options and customize your scanner through use of
the instructions and programming barcodes available in that section and also
the Data Editing and 1D Symbologies chapters of this manual.

When you program the scanner using any of the methods above, the
scanner will store the changes until reprogrammed or returned to fac-
tory defaults.
NOTE

Programming Mode
Scan the Enter/Exit Programming Mode barcode found at the top of applicable
pages) once to enter Programming Mode. After the scanner is in Programming
Mode, you can scan a number of parameter settings before scanning the Enter/
Exit Programming Mode barcode a second time, which will then accept your
changes, exit Programming Mode, reset the scanner and return it to normal
operation.

While in Programming Mode, your scanner will read the 2D program-

ming bar codes in this manual regardless of whether 2D reading capa-
bility has been enabled as an option.
NOTE
The scanner will exit Programming Mode under any of the following conditions:

— the programming sequence has been completed or the Enter/Exit Pro-

gramming Mode bar code is scanned.

— five minutes have passed without scanning activity. Any data pro-
grammed during the current session will be ignored, and the scanner
will reset and revert to its condition previous to initiating the exited ses-
sion.

— power is disconnected. Disconnecting power during Programming

Mode, before scanning the Enter/Exit Programming Mode bar code, will
cause all new settings to be ignored1. On powerup, the scanner will
return to previous settings.
While in Programming Mode, the scanner only recognizes the special program-
ming bar codes contained in this programming guide. See Appendix A for
information about scanner indications while in the Programming Mode.
Some programming barcode labels, like the label on page 14, 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.

1. Exception: If an interface bar code had been read while in Programming Mode, the
scanner will operate on the default settings for the new interface.

10 Magellan™ 1500i
 Programming Session

Programming Session
A typical programming session is conducted as follows:

1. Scan the Enter/Exit Programming Mode bar code to place the scanner in
Programming Mode. Depending upon its current programming, the scan-
ner may emit a beep or beeps, indicating it has read the bar code and the
green LED will flash on and off slowly while the scanner remains in Pro-
gramming Mode. Normal scanning functions are disabled.
Scan the programming bar code(s) to make the desired changes. The beeper
will sound as programming barcode labels are scanned, indicating progress
during scanner configuration. The beep may vary depending upon the feature
being configured.

Not all features are available for all interfaces and the scanner will
sound an error tone when scanning programming bar codes for fea-
tures invalid to the current interface. Only features supported by the
currently active interface will be implemented.
NOTE

If a bar code is scanned that changes the scanner’s interface, all previ-
ous configuration items scanned in the programming session are lost.
NOTE

Additionally, when programming a feature requiring you to scan single

digits to set a multi-digit number, such as Minimum Label Length, do not
scan bar code (or any item tag/item value bar code) before completing all
input. To do so will result in an error tone and cause the scanner to exit
Programming Mode. Under these circumstances, the current feature you
were trying to set is not applied, but any previous bar codes scanned
during the session will still take effect.
It is recommended that programming sessions be limited to one fea-
ture at a time. Should you make a mistake in the programming
sequence, it can be difficult to discover where an error has been made
if several features are programmed at once. Additionally, it can be
NOTE
confusing to determine which features may or may not have been
successfully set following such a session.

2. Scan the Enter/Exit Programming Mode bar code to save any new settings
and exit Programming Mode. The scanner will sound a beep and reset
upon exiting Programming Mode, and the green LED will return to its usual
state (on steady or off).

3. Maintain a good record of all changes made to ensure that you know if the
original factory settings have been changed.

Product Reference Guide 11

About Programming your Scanner

If You Make a Mistake...

If, during a programming session, you find that you are unsure of the scanner’s
settings or wish to reset the scanner’s configuration, use the Return to Factory
Settings label below to return the scanner’s configuration to the factory set-
tings. Scanning this label will also reset any changes made during previous
programming sessions.

Return to Factory Settings

Scan the bar code below to return the scanner to the default settings config-
ured at the factory for the currently active interface. This bar code is typically
used to return the scanner to a “known” operating state when the present pro-
gramming status is not known, faulty, or suspect.

Use this bar code with caution, since it will reset ALL features that
may have been programmed since the scanner’s installation.
CAUTION

DO NOT scan the Enter/Exit Programming Mode bar code before and
after scanning this bar code.

Image Capture to the Host by Host Command
This feature is only available for RS-232 and USB COM interfaces.

If the USB COM interface has been selected, follow the instruc-
tions in USB Interface Selection on page 67.
NOTE
The host command format is as follows:
P<cnt>pSBC
where:
P - ASCII 'P' used as preamble of pass-through commands
<cnt> - binary value of 4 indicating 4 bytes to follow
p - ASCII lowercase 'p' ; command to take a picture
S - size value of image as ASCII character

‘S’ == uses scanner's configuration value

‘0’-VGA, (640X480)

‘1’-WVGA, (752X480)

‘2’-SXGA, (1280x1027)

‘3’-CIF (320x240)
B - brightness value in ASCII

‘B’ == uses scanner's configuration value CI_IMAGE_BRIGHTNESS 

else ‘0’ thru’9’ specifies brightness
C - contrast value in ASCII

‘C’ == uses scanner configuration value CI_IMAGE_CONTRAST 

else ‘0’ thru’9’ specifies contrast
IF the image is of a type the scanner supports, capture and transmission occurs,
and the command is of proper format
THEN
The scanner will transmit an ACK (0x06) to the Host in response to this
command.
The image data transmission starts with a 4 byte binary field representing
(Big Endian) number of bytes to follow.
If the “number of bytes to follow” value is zero, there was a problem with
generating the image and the request should be retried.
ELSE
The scanner will transmit a BEL (0x07) to the Host in response to this com-
mand.

INTERFACE SELECTION
Interface Type
Specifies the current scanner interface.

The correct interface cable is generally included for the reader interface
type you ordered.
NOTE
If the scanner’s interface type must be changed, always be sure
that interface configuration is the FIRST item scanned during a
programming session. (Selecting an interface type resets ALL
other configuration items to the factory default for that interface
NOTE
type.)

Great care should be taken to select the correct interface type,

since you can cause damage to the scanner and/or POS terminal
by attempting to change to an incompatible interface. ALWAYS
CAUTION make interface selections with the host cable DISCONNECTED.

When an interface is selected, the scanner loads the configuration

for that interface as the selection is made. Any custom configura-
tions done in the previous interface will not be carried over to the
configuration for the new interface.

Data Editing Overview

Data Editing Overview

When a barcode is scanned, additional information can be sent to the host
computer along with the barcode data. This combination of barcode data and
supplementary user-defined data is called a “message string.” The features in
this chapter can be used to build specific user-defined data into a message
string.
There are several types of selectable data characters that can be sent before
and after scanned data. You can specify if they should be sent with all symbol-
ogies, or only with specific symbologies. Figure 5 shows the available elements
you can add to a message string:
Figure 5. Breakdown of a Message String

Label ID Transmission:
Enable this option to transmit
the Label ID you configure for
the scanned symbology.

OR...

Prefix Label ID AIM ID Bar Code Data Label ID Suffix

AIM ID: This function is used to identify and display the

common label identifier for its symbology. When enabled,
this ID code will be transmitted before the scanned bar
code data.

00 - 20 Characters (ASCII)

Please Keep In Mind...

• Modifying a message string is not a mandatory requirement. Data editing
is sophisticated feature allowing highly customizable output for advanced
users. Factory default settings for data editing is typically set to NONE.
• A prefix or suffix may be applied (reference the 1D Symbologies chapter
for these settings) or across all symbologies (set via the Global features in
this chapter).
• You can add any character from the ASCII Character Set (from 00-FF) on
the inside back cover of this manual as a prefix, suffix or Label ID.
• Enter prefixes and suffixes in the order in which you want them to appear
on the output.

Global Prefix Enter/Exit Programming Mode

Global Prefix/Suffix

Global Prefix
This feature applies to RS-232 (Standard or Wincor-Nixdorf), USB-COM, USB-
TEC, and USB Keyboard interfaces. It specifies the prefix that is added to the
beginning of label transmission.
To specify the Global Prefix Character(s):
1. Scan the Enter/Exit Programming Mode barcode at the top of the page.
2. Scan the barcode Set Global Prefix below. Cover any unused barcodes to
ensure the scanner reads only the barcode you intend to scan.
3. Scan the appropriate characters/digits from the Alpha-Numeric Keypad on
page 296 that represent the hex designation for the desired character(s).
The ASCII Character Set and their corresponding Hex Values are in the
inside back cover of this manual. ASCII parameters must be input by scan-
ning a pair of hexadecimal digits for each character. To set a two-charac-
ter value of AB, barcodes containing the digits ‘4’, ‘1’, ‘4’, and ‘2’ must be
scanned. The selectable range for this option is any hex value from 00 to
FF. Up to 20 hex pairs can be designated.

To specify “No Global Prefix,” scan 00

NOTE

4. If designating the full 20 hex pairs, the scanner will exit Programming
Mode when the appropriate amount of digits have been scanned. If desig-
nating less than 20 hex pairs, you can end the programming sequence
early by scanning the Terminate Sequence barcode.

5. Complete the programming sequence by scanning the Enter/Exit Pro-

gramming Mode barcode.

AIM ID
AIM (Automatic Identification Manufacturers) label identifiers are assigned from
a globally standardized list — as opposed to custom label ID characters you
select yourself — and can be included with scanned barcode data. AIM label
identifiers consist of three characters as follows:
• A close brace character (ASCII ‘]’), followed by...
• A code character (see the table below), followed by...
• A modifier character (the modifier character is symbol dependent)

Global Mid-Label ID Enter/Exit Programming Mode

Global Mid-Label ID
This feature specifies a global mid-label ID that is added between two barcodes
for transmission.
To set this feature:

1. Scan the Enter/Exit Programming Mode barcode at the top of the page.

2. Scan the barcode “Set Global Mid-Label ID” below. You’ll need to cover any
unused barcodes on this and the facing page to ensure the scanner reads
only the barcode you intend to scan.

3. Scan the appropriate digits from the Alpha-Numeric Keypad in Appendix C

that represent the desired mid-label ID characters; entered as two hex
pairs. A table containing the ASCII Character Set and their corresponding
Hex Values is available in the inside back cover of this manual. ASCII
parameters must be input by scanning a pair of hexadecimal digits for
each character. Thus, to set a two-character value of AB, barcodes con-
taining the digits ‘4’, ‘1’, ‘4’, and ‘2’ must be scanned. The selectable
range for this option is any hex value from 00 to FF.
Complete the programming sequence by scanning the Enter/Exit Programming
Mode barcode.

Character Conversion
Character conversion is an eight byte configuration item. The eight bytes are 4
character pairs represented in hexadecimal ASCII values. The first character in the
pair is the character that will be converted. The second character in the pair is the
character to convert to. If the character to convert in a pair is FF, then no conversion
is done.
For example, if you have the character conversion configuration item set to the
following:
41423132FFFFFFFF
The first pair is 4142 or AB (41 hex is an ASCII capital A, 42 hex is an ASCII cap-
ital B) and the second pair is 3132 or 12 (31 hex is an ASCII 1, 32 is an ASCII 2).
The other two pairs are FFFF and FFFF.
With the label, AG15TA81, it would look as follows after the character conver-
sion: BG25TB82.
The A characters were converted to the B character and the 1 characters were
converted to the numeral 2 character. Nothing is done with the last two charac-
ter pairs, since they are all FF.
To set Character Conversion:
1. Scan the Enter/Exit Programming Mode barcode at the top of the page.
2. Scan the Character Conversion barcode.
3. Determine the desired string. Up to sixteen positions can be determined
as in the above example. Next, turn to the ASCII Chart on the inside back
cover of this manual and find the equivalent hex digits needed to fulfill the
string.

The positions not used must be filled with the character ‘F’.

NOTE
4. Turn to the Alpha-Numeric Keypad on page 296 and scan the barcodes
representing the hex characters determined in the previous step. When the
last character is scanned, the scanner will sound a triple beep.
5. Complete the programming sequence by scanning the Enter/Exit Pro-
gramming Mode barcode.

5. Scan the END barcode once to finish the string, then scan END again to
exit Programming Mode.

If all 20 characters will be used in the prefix or suffix, do not scan the END
barcode to finish the string. It is done automatically.
NOTE

Scanned barcode data:12345
Resulting message string output: $12345
Label ID
A Label ID is used to identify a barcode (symbology) type. It can be appended
previous to or following the transmitted barcode data depending upon how this
option is enabled. This feature provides options for configuring custom Label
IDs individually per symbology. If you wish to program the scanner to always
include an industry standard label identifier for ALL symbology types, see the
feature, AIM ID on page 101.
The Label ID is a customizable code of up to three ASCII characters (each of
which are hex 00-7F) followed by a control character (00-01), This control
character, when set to zero, does nothing. When set to one, it appends the
symbology’s AIM ID to the Label ID.

When the control character is set to 01 for UPC-A and UPC-E, it expands the
label to EAN-13 and thus follows the EAN-13 Label ID settings.

Length Control
Fixed Length Decoding — When fixed length decoding is enabled, the scanner
will decode a barcode if the label length matches one of the configurable fixed
lengths.

Variable Length Decoding — When variable length decoding is enabled, the scan-
ner will decode a barcode if the label length falls in the range of the configu-
rable minimum and maximum length.

Configuring Fixed Length Decoding:

1. Scan the Enter/Exit Programming Mode barcode at the top of the page.

2. Scan the Fixed Length Decoding barcode for the desired symbology.

3. Scan the Enter/Exit Programming Mode barcode at the top of the page.

4. Set Length 1 to the first fixed length by following the Length 1, Length 2
Programming Instructions below.

5. Set Length 2 to the second fixed length (or to ‘00’ if there is only one fixed
length) by following the Length 1, Length 2 Programming Instructions
below.

Configuring Variable Length Decoding:

1. Scan the Enter/Exit Programming Mode barcode at the top of the page.

2. Scan the Variable Length Decoding barcode for the desired symbology.

3. Scan the Enter/Exit Programming Mode barcode at the top of the page.

4. Set Length 1 to the first variable length by following the Length 1, Length
2 Programming Instructions below.

5. Set Length 2 to the second variable length by following the Length 1,

Length 2 Programming Instructions below.

Length 1, Length 2 Programming Instructions

1. Scan the Enter/Exit Programming Mode barcode at the top of the page.

2. Scan either the Set Length 1 or Set Length 2 barcode for the desired sym-
bology.

3. Turn to Appendix C and scan the two digits (zero padded) representing
the length in decimal notation. The number of characters that can be set
varies, depending upon the symbology. Reference the page for your
selected symbology to see specific variables.

4. Scan the Enter/Exit Programming Mode barcode at the top of the page.
