Datalogic Magellan 3700HSi In-Counter POS Scanner

Brand - Datalogic

The Datalogic Magellan 3700HSi is a modern in-counter horizontal single-plane POS scanner designed for fast-paced retail checkout environments. It combines advanced digital imaging, high-speed barcode reading, modern data format support and enterprise remote management in a compact counter-integrated design. The Magellan 3700HSi is not a handheld scanner and not an on-counter presentation scanner. It is a horizontal in-counter scanner designed to be built into the checkout counter. This layout helps create a clutter-free checkout area, leaving more usable space on the counter and supporting a simpler checkout experience for both customers and attendants. The scanner is engineered for speed, accuracy and reliability across 1D and 2D barcodes. It reads printed, mobile, damaged and hard-to-read codes, helping retail staff maintain smooth checkout performance even when barcode quality is not ideal. Enhanced throughput and motion tolerance support faster retail transactions. A key strength of the Magellan 3700HSi is support for current and emerging retail data standards. It reads standard 1D linear codes, GS1 DataBar linear codes, 2D codes such as Aztec Code, Data Matrix ECC200 and QR Code, and stacked codes including GS1 Digital Link, GS1 DataBar composites, MicroPDF417 and PDF417. It also supports Digimarc Barcodes / GS1 DW Code and OCR-oriented workflows. GS1 Digital Link support makes the Magellan 3700HSi especially relevant for modern retail applications. Enhanced barcode data can support expiration date tracking, recall management and personalized promotions, enabling retailers to use barcode data for more than basic item identification. The scanner uses a 1360 x 1120 pixel global shutter image sensor and supports a maximum grayscale read rate of 60 million pixels per second. It provides a maximum resolution of 3 mil for 1D codes and 6 mil for 2D codes. The read height is 15.0 cm / 6.0 in for EAN 13 mil codes at 15 cm distance. The Magellan 3700HSi reads barcodes from both printed labels and mobile phone screens. This is important for modern retail environments such as convenience, grocery, discount, specialty, hardware, fashion, pharmacy and hospitality, where digital coupons, loyalty applications, tickets and mobile identifiers are increasingly common. The scanner uses multiple diffused LEDs with orientation and wavelength optimized for user comfort. This subtle adaptive illumination supports consistent scanning while reducing unnecessary visual strain. Solid-state electronics support silent operation and long-term reliability. The Magellan 3700HSi also supports image capture in BMP, JPEG, TIFF and RAW formats. Color image capture is available on the 3750 / 3770 models, while the 3770 model includes a dedicated 1 MP color video camera. The camera uses a 1280 x 800 pixel global shutter sensor, supports 40 frames per second and connects through USB 2.0 using the USB Video Class protocol. This can support security monitoring, loss prevention or external AI-based item recognition workflows. For advanced tracking and security workflows, RFID is available on the 3750 / 3770 models. The RFID feature supports EPC UHF Class 1 Gen 2 / ISO 18000-6C, with US frequency range of 902–928 MHz and EU frequency range of 865–868 MHz. It supports configurable power up to 9 dBm and a linear reading range up to 20 cm / 7.9 in. With the appropriate configuration, the scanner can read and write UHF RFID tags. The Magellan 3700HSi is compatible with Checkpoint Systems and Tyco Sensormatic EAS solutions. This allows retailers to combine barcode scanning with EAS deactivation, RFID tracking and loss prevention processes at checkout and returns. Enterprise management is another major feature. The scanner supports an IoT Remote Management Platform for diagnostics, software upgrades and configuration. It integrates across Windows, Linux and Android environments using OPOS, JavaPOS or the Android SDK. Magellan Aladdin configuration software is available for scanner setup and configuration. The optional Magellan Customer Service Scanner, or CSS, allows customers to scan barcodes from mobile phones, coupons and loyalty cards while the cashier continues scanning regular items. This parallel workflow can reduce transaction time and improve the customer experience. The scanner includes multiple interfaces in every unit: OEM / IBM USB, RS-232, USB Keyboard and USB Com. Powered Type A USB auxiliary ports are available on 3750 / 3770 models and require a 12V power supply, 12V OEM-USB or 9–12V USB-C Power Delivery. USB-C Power Delivery is supported on 3750 / 3770 models at 9 or 12 V. Power consumption is low for the category. Without an auxiliary handheld device attached, operating maximum power consumption is 3 W, operating nominal power consumption is 1.2 W and sleep mode power consumption is 1.0 W. With an auxiliary handheld device attached on M3x50 and M3x70 models using a 12V power source, operating nominal power consumption is listed as 1.8 W. The Magellan 3700HSi also has a sustainability-focused design. The source highlights TÜV-certified 85% recycled plastics and eco-friendly packaging, positioning the product as a green single-plane retail scanner. The physical design is compact and suited to in-counter installation. Below-counter depth is 8.7 cm / 3.4 in, length is 15.2 cm / 6.0 in and width is 15.2 cm / 6.0 in. Weight is 0.90 kg / 2.0 lb. The scanner is built for retail operating environments. It supports ambient light from 0 to 86,100 lux, 25 kV ESD air discharge protection, 5–95% non-condensing humidity and IP52 sealing. Operating temperature is 0 to 40°C, while storage and transport temperature is -40 to 70°C. Typical applications include attended POS, self-checkout POS, kiosks, ticketing, access control, price verification, loss prevention, ID verification, age verification, security monitoring, ticket switching, EAS deactivation, RFID tracking, sorting and quality assurance. Overall, the Datalogic Magellan 3700HSi is a modern in-counter horizontal single-plane POS scanner for retailers that need fast checkout performance, a clutter-free counter, modern barcode standard support and advanced optional security / tracking capabilities. Its strongest value lies in GS1 Digital Link, Digimarc, OCR-oriented workflows, mobile screen reading, 60 million pixels per second read rate, optional RFID on 3750 / 3770 models, color image capture, optional color video camera on 3770, EAS compatibility, IoT remote management, USB-C Power Delivery and sustainability-focused design.
