NTRODUCTION ® QuantumE is a miniature, omni-directional scanning engine with optional single- line scanning capability. The self-contained device is fully enclosed eliminating the need for an external window or custom enclosure. It is designed for use in OEM equipment such as price lookup systems and kiosks. QuantumE s slim design makes it ideal for integration and use with flat-screens.

Insert the paperclip (or other small metallic pin) into the ‘pinhole’. There will be a faint ‘click’ when the cable lock is released. Pull gently on the strain-relief of the PowerLink cable to remove it from the scanner. Figure 1a. Scanner Components ESCRIPTION Figure 1b.
Caution and Serial Number Labels Caution To maintain compliance with applicable standards, all circuits connected to the scanner must meet the requirements for SELV (Safety Extra Low Voltage) according to EN/IEC 60950-1. To maintain compliance with standard CSA C22.2 No. 60950-1/UL 60950-1 and norm EN/IEC 60950-1, the power source should meet applicable performance requirements for a limited power source.
Connect AC power to the transformer. Turn on the host device. When the scanner first receives power, the blue LED will turn on; the scanner will simultaneously beep once and flash the white LED. Plugging the scanner into the serial port of the PC does not guarantee that scanned information will appear at the PC.
Turn on the host device. When the scanner first receives power, the blue LED will turn on; the scanner will simultaneously beep once and flash the white LED. Plugging the scanner into the serial port of the PC does not guarantee that scanned information will appear at the PC.
Not all computers supply the same current through the keyboard port. For this reason, Honeywell recommends using an external power supply. For additional information, contact a customer service representative. See page 5.

IS3480-104 Only The IS3480-104 leaves the factory with the Laser Emulation Mode enabled. If the Recall Defaults bar code is scanned while reconfiguring the scanner, the laser emulation mode will no longer be enabled. Scan the following bar code to re-enable the laser emulation interface.
• The secondary scan pattern mode is activated by pressing the button located on the side of the scanner. This mode is also referred to as the button mode. For additional information on QuantumE’s button modes and an example of each, please refer to Configurable Button Functions below.
Page 17
To decode and transmit the bar code, press and release the button. The scanner will beep once. To reactivate the primary scan pattern, double click the button or after 10-seconds of no-scanning the unit will automatically reactivate the primary pattern.
Page 18
ECONDARY LICK ODE WITH The primary scan pattern is active when the scanner starts. To activate the secondary scan pattern, press and release the button. The unit will beep once as it decodes and transmits the bar code.
Page 19
To transmit the bar code, release the button. The scanner will beep once. To scan and transmit additional bar codes, repeat steps 2 through 4. The primary scan pattern will automatically reactivate after the button is released and no bar code is present in the scan field.
Page 20
To scan and transmit the bar code, align the laser line over the bar code while continuing to hold down the button. The scanner will beep once to indicate the bar code has been scanned and transmitted.
The sweet spot mode is used to determine where the maximum read rate area or “sweet spot” is located for a specific bar code type. When activated this mode provides visual and audible feedback indicating how the scanner is scanning. Number of Illuminated LEDs For further information on the sweet spot mode and instructions on how to enable it, refer the MetroSelect Configuration Guide (00-02407).
When the IS3480 is in operation, it can provide audible feedback. These sounds indicate the status of the scanner. Eight settings are available for the tone of the beep (normal, six alternate tones and no tone). For instruction on how to change the tone of the beeper, refer to the MetroSelect Configuration Guide (00-02407).
CANNER PERATION Visual Indicators There are four LEDs located on the top of the IS3480. When the scanner is on, the flashing or constant illumination of the LEDs indicates the status of the current scan and the scanner. No LEDs The LEDs will not be illuminated if the scanner is not receiving power from the host or transformer.
Continuous Razzberry Tone with Both LEDs Off If, upon power up, the scanner emits a continuous razzberry tone, then the scanner has an electronic failure. Return the unit to an authorized service center for repair.

The IS3480 scanner with Built-in PC Keyboard Wedge Interface is designed to be used for keyboard emulation only. Many RS232 configurable functions (e.g. formatting) available in other Honeywell scanners are also available as keyboard wedge functions. The following are the most important selectable options specific to the keyboard wedge.
ONFIGURATION The IS3480 Series scanner has three modes of configuration. • Bar Codes The IS3480 can be configured by scanning the bar codes included in the Single-Line Configuration Guide or the Supplemental Configuration Guide. The manuals are available for download at www.honeywellaidc.com.
PGRADING THE The IS3480 is part of Honeywell's line of scanners with flash upgradeable firmware. The upgrade process requires, a new firmware file supplied to the customer by a customer service representative software . A personal computer running Windows 95 or greater with an available RS232 serial or USB port is required to complete the upgrade.

PC Clock No Connect Honeywell will supply an adapter cable with a 5-pin DIN male connector on one end and a 6-pin mini DIN female connector on the other. According to the termination required, connect the appropriate end of the adapter cable to the PowerLink cable, leaving the necessary termination exposed for connecting to the keyboard and the keyboard port on the PC.
Never attempt to look at the laser beam, even if the scanner appears to be nonfunctional. Never open the scanner in an attempt to look into the device. Doing so could result in hazardous laser light exposure. The use of optical instruments with the laser equipment will increase eye hazard.
