TM
8500Xt
With the SurroundScan™ scan pattern and
advanced FirstStrike™ decoding software,
the Magellan
®
8500Xt can read most hard-
to-read codes quickly and without excess
orientation.
Weighing Items
The L-shaped All-Weighs™ platter allows
you to place items anywhere on its surface,
including leaning against its vertical sec-
tion, to be weighed accurately. The raised
Produce Rail
TM
also provides a convenient
way to ensure that items do not rest on the coun-
ter or other non-weighing surfaces.
Once weighed items are in place, 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.
Controls and Indicators
The control panel consists of two or three indica-
tor LEDs and two or three push buttons. The unit
also includes a beeper which can be configured to
sound indications of scanning, weighing, and
deactivation activities.
Scanner and Scale LEDs
The Scanner LED (green, top-most) indicates
scanner status, and the Scale LED (yellow, middle) is primarily used to show scale status
(see Table 1).
