Introduction
Product Overview
The non-decode IS4813 and IS4815 laser scan engines are designed for direct integration into custom OEM
devices equipped with a decoder. The engine’s small size is ideal for integration into mobile computers, hand-
held scanners, medical/diagnostic equipment, mobile printers, lottery terminals, ATMs and access control
devices.
For customer applications requiring decode functionality in addition to solid scan engine performance, the
IS4823 and IS4825 models combine the miniature IS4813 and IS4815 engines with a decoder and an optional
mounting bracket for a complete small package that provides integration flexibility to meet a variety of OEM
applications.
The IS4823 and IS4825 deliver aggressive scanning with a decoded output on all standard 1D bar code
symbologies — including UPC, EAN, Code 39 and I 2 of 5 — as dense as 4 mil. The IS4823 and IS4825
models support TTL level RS232 or USB system interfaces. They can operate in standard trigger mode, as
well as “blinky” mode for hands-free scanning.
The laser scan engine series is equipped with a multitude of features including:
100 Scans per second
Support for 3.3VDC input voltage (IS4813, IS4823)
Support for 5VDC input voltage (IS4815, IS4825)
A 650 nm bright laser diode
A narrow exit angle to provide precise beam positioning
Automatic (hardware) scan sense
A rugged die cast engine chassis with threaded mounting holes
An optional mounting bracket for integration flexibility (IS4823, IS4825)
A 10-pin (IS4813, IS4815) or 12-pin (IS4823, IS4825) ZIF connector with industry standard pinout for
seamless integration into portable devices
Low mass property (see page 21) in an industry standard size
A wide sweep angle for scanning big bar codes up close
For ease of integration and optimum engine performance, Metrologic has designed a Software Development
Kit (SDK) for the IS4813 and the IS4815. Contact a customer service representative or sales representative
for additional information (see page 41).
Notes: The manufacturer of the end equipment must register with agencies such as the Food and Drug
Administration (FDA). The specifications required for registration are not obtainable until the OEM
manufacturer uses the IS4800 series scan engine in its final configuration. Therefore, it becomes
the responsibility of the manufacturer who incorporates the scan engine into their product to comply
with all federal laser safety regulations. The manufacturer must submit a Laser Product Report for
the FDA in the US.
