The IS4800 microQuest

®

 

series are miniature single-line scan engines designed 

for direct integration into customer decode-equipped OEM devices.  

 

The microQuest non-decode scan engine is equipped with a multitude of 
features including: 

 

100 Scans per Second, Typical. 

 

Support for 3.3VDC Input Voltage (IS4813 Model) 

 

Support for 5VDC Input Voltage (IS4815 Model) 

 

A 650 nm Bright Laser Diode 

 

A narrow exit angle to provide precision beam positioning. 

 

Automatic (Hardware) Scan Sense 

 

A rugged industry standard size die cast chassis with threaded mounting 

holes. 

 

A 10-pin ZIF Connector Industry Standard Pinout for Seamless Integration 

into Portable Devices 

 

Low Mass (11 grams) Industry Standard Size 

 

 

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 
microQuest 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.  Metrologic will assist its customers in complying with the necessary 
procedures.  

 

 

 

THIS DEVICE DOES NOT COMPLY WITH 21 CFR 1040.   
USE ONLY AS COMPONENT. 

 

 Caution:

  The laser is susceptible to permanent damage if enabled less 

than 50 ms after the Scan Enable has been activated.  This requirement 
must be strictly adhered to or the limited warranty on page 23

 

is void.  

Refer to 

Scan Sense Timing on pages 

16 - 17 for additional information.
