The Datalogic Magellan 1500i is a fixed presentation 2D barcode scanner designed for retail point of sale, pharmacy counters and customer service environments. It combines a compact, durable plastic housing with a high-performance megapixel sensor and custom optics to read 1D and 2D codes from printed labels and mobile screens. The scanner supports Digimarc® watermark decoding, offers a large reading area with reach up to 25 cm, and provides wired USB connectivity in a compact unit weighing 240 g.

Advantages

Magellan 1500i delivers fast, accurate decoding of 1D and 2D barcodes including truncated or damaged codes thanks to powerful algorithms and a megapixel sensor. Consistent, comfortable illumination reduces glare and flicker, improving operator comfort. Motionix™ motion sensing enables automatic switching to handheld mode with an LED aimer and Green Spot good-read confirmation, while Digimarc® decoding adds support for watermark barcodes. The device’s compact footprint, IP52 dust and moisture protection and lightweight plastic housing make it suitable for busy POS counters.

Recommendations

For best results, position items so barcodes face the scanner and avoid extreme angles. Keep the scanner housing and window clean and protected from direct liquid exposure despite its IP52 rating. Use USB power compliant with the specified 5 V/500 mA to ensure stable operation.
