Magellan 9800i bi-optic retail scanner with integrated weighing scale, medium configuration and part-number-specific accessory guidance

The Datalogic Magellan 9800i 98204013121 is a part-number-specific configuration from Datalogic's Magellan 9800i scanner/scale family for high-volume retail checkout applications.

The Magellan 9800i platform combines multi-plane barcode imaging with an integrated retail weighing scale and is designed for cashier-operated and self-checkout environments.

Datalogic offers the Magellan 9800i in several scanner-only and scanner/scale configurations, with different platter lengths, scale options, displays, EAS functions and accessories. The exact part number is therefore important when replacing or specifying a system.

Exact Part Number

Brand: Datalogic

Product Family: Magellan 9800i

Part Number: 98204013121

Configuration Reference:
MGL98,SS,M,N/DSP,M/LLT,E,S/SENTRY,N,N,N

This exact configuration string is associated with part number 98204013121 in current product-reference databases.

Because Datalogic uses multiple configuration codes across the Magellan 9800i family, customers should verify the full part number rather than ordering only by the generic “Magellan 9800i” model name.

Scanner/Scale Function

The Magellan 9800i is available as a scanner/scale, combining barcode scanning with integrated weighing for retail checkout.

Datalogic documents Magellan Scale Technology with:

• Single-interval scale options
• Dual-interval scale options
• Adaptive scale compatibility
• All-Weighs™ platter technology
• Optional Scale Sentry™ perimeter monitoring

The exact weighing configuration for 98204013121 should be confirmed against the supplied unit or Datalogic configuration documentation.

Barcode Reading

The Magellan 9800i uses digital imaging for fixed retail scanning and supports standard retail barcode formats.

Current Datalogic specifications list support for:

• Standard 1D / linear codes
• GS1 DataBar
• PDF417
• MicroPDF417
• QR Code
• Micro QR
• Data Matrix
• Aztec Code
• Composite barcode formats
• Optional Digimarc support depending on configuration

This makes the platform relevant for supermarket, hypermarket and grocery checkout environments where both traditional barcodes and 2D codes may be presented.

Integrated Scale Capacity

Datalogic documents the Magellan 9800i scale platform with the following general scale options:

Single Interval Scale

• Capacity: 0–15 kg
• Minimum increment: 0.005 kg

Dual Interval Scale

• Range 1: 0–6 kg
• Range 2: 6–15 kg
• Minimum increment: 0.002 kg in Range 1
• Minimum increment: 0.005 kg in Range 2

The exact regulatory-approved scale configuration can vary by market and model, so the required UAE/legal-for-trade configuration should be confirmed before deployment.

Medium Scanner/Scale Configuration

The Magellan 9800i family is available in different physical lengths.

Datalogic's product specifications list:

• Short scanner-only version
• Medium scanner-only version
• Medium scanner/scale version
• Long scanner-only version
• Long scanner/scale version

For the scanner/scale platform, the medium model length is approximately 39.9 cm / 15.7 in, while overall width is approximately 29.2 cm / 11.5 in.

The exact physical configuration of part number 98204013121 should still be confirmed before designing or modifying a checkout counter.
