PowerScan™ PD9530
Description
The PowerScan™ 9530 is a feature-rich and rugged area imager reader. It is offered in several different models to better fit the different needs of each customer.
The table below shows the unique features of each model:
| Model P/N Optical feature | |
| PD9530 Standard | optic, standard and low density codes |
| PD9530-HP | Autofocus optic, High, standard and low density codes, wide angle |
| PD9530-HPE | Autofocus optic, High, standard and low density codes, wide angle |
| PD9530-DPM | High Density optic, high and medium density codes, DPM (laser, ink jet and dot peen) |
General Features
| Omni-directional Operating | To read a symbol or capture an image, you simply aim the reader and pull the trigger. Since the PowerScanTM PD9530 is a powerful omni-directional reader, the orientation of the symbol is not important. |
| Decoding | Thanks to powerful algorithms, PowerScanTM PD9530 reliably decodes all major 1D (linear) barcodes, 2D stacked codes (such as PDF417), 2D matrix symbols (such as DataMatrix), postal codes (such as POSTNET, PLANET). The data stream — acquired from decoding a symbol — is rapidly sent to the host. The reader is immediately available to read another symbol. |
| Formatting and Concatenating | The string of a decoded code may be processed according to either a simple or advanced data formatting and be concatenated. |
| Imaging | PowerScanTM PD9530 can also function as a camera by capturing entire images or image portions of labels, signatures, and other items. |
| Autoscanning | An autoscan command causes the reader to scan continuously and to monitor the central zone of its reading area. |
| Flash Memory | Flash technology allows you to upgrade the PowerScanTM PD9530 reader as new symbologies are supported or as improved decoding algorithms become available. |
| USA Driver License Parsing | The reader can be set up to select and output a subset of data elements from USA Driver License PDF417 barcodes. This feature can be enabled using either Datalogic AladdinTM or the barcodes in the USA Driver License Parsing Quick Reference Guide (QRG), available on the Datalogic website. |
Setting Up the Reader
Follow the steps below to connect and get your reader up and communicating with its host.
- Connect the Cable to the reader and the Host, shown on page 3.
- Configure the Interface (see page 5).
- Configure the Reader starting on page 15 (optional, depends on settings needed)
Connect the PowerScan ^™ by plugging directly into the host device as shown. The power can also be supplied through an external power supply via the Interface Cable supplied with a power jack.
Connecting the Cable

A. Rubber gasket
B. Cable Holder
C. Cover
D. Connector Holder
- Slip the cable through the Cover.
- Push the Rubber Gasket onto the Cable Holder.
- Push the Cable Holder and gasket into the handle. Ensure that the 'Front" marking on the Cable Holder is facing out, with the arrow pointing towards the front of the scanner.
- Insert the end of the cable into the socket of the Cable Holder.
- Push the Cover along the cable towards the reader, and hook it over the yellow 'tooth" on the back of the handle.
- Insert the cable through the Connector Holder, and push it up into the Cover.
- Insert and tighten the screw to affix the cable assembly to the reader handle.



Using the PowerScan™ PD9530
The PowerScan™ PD9530 normally functions by capturing and decoding bar codes. The reader is equipped with an internal Motionix™ motion-sensing function which activates the aiming system on device motion. The intelligent aiming system indicates the field of view which should be positioned over the bar code:
Table 1. Aiming System
| Model P/N Aimer pattern | |
| PD9530 / PD9530-DPM | ![]() |
| PD9530-HP / PD9530-HPE | ![]() |
The field of view indicated by the aiming system will be smaller when the reader is closer to the bar code and larger when it is farther from the code. Symbologies with smaller bars or elements (mil size) should be read closer to the unit. Symbologies with larger bars or elements (mil size) should be read farther from the unit.
If the entire bar code is within the aiming field, you will get a good read. Successful reading is signaled by an audible tone plus a good-read green spot LED indicator.
Reference the PowerScan™ PD9530 Product Reference Guide (PRG) for more information about this feature and other programmable settings.
Selecting the Interface Type
Upon completing the physical connection between the reader and its host, proceed directly to Interface Selection below for information and programming for the interface type the reader is connected to (for example: RS-232, Keyboard Wedge, USB, etc.) and scan the appropriate bar code to select your system's correct interface type.
Interface Selection
All models are multi-interface and support RS-232, USB and Keyboard Wedge.
Information and programming options for each interface type are provided in this section. For defaults and additional information associated with each interface, proceed to the corresponding chapter in the PowerScan™ PD9530 PRG.
Configuring the Interface
Scan the appropriate programming bar code to selects the interface type for your system.

Unlike some other programming features and options, interface selections require that you scan only one programming bar code label. DO NOT scan an ENTER/EXIT bar code prior to scanning an interface selection bar code.
Some interfaces require the scanner to start in the disabled state when powered up. If additional scanner configuration is desired while in this state, pull the trigger and hold for 5 seconds. The scanner will change to a state that allows programming with bar codes.

Programming
The reader is factory-configured with a set of standard default features. After scanning the interface bar code from the Interfaces section, select other options and customize your reader through use of the programming bar codes available in the PowerScan™ PD9530. Check the corresponding features section for your interface, and also the Data Editing and Symbologies chapters of the PRG.
Using Programming Bar Codes
This manual contains bar codes which allow you to reconfigure your reader. Some programming bar code labels, like the "Reset Default Settings" on page 15, require only the scan of that single label to enact the change.
Other bar codes require the reader to be placed in Programming Mode prior to scanning them. Scan an ENTER/EXIT bar code once to enter Programming Mode; scan the desired parameter settings; scan the ENTER/EXIT bar code again to accept your changes, which exits Programming Mode and returns the reader to normal operation.
Configure Other Settings
Additional programming bar codes are available in the PRG to allow for customizing programming features. If your installation requires different programming than the standard factory default settings, refer to the PRG.
Resetting Product Defaults
If you aren't sure what programming options are in your reader, or you've changed some options and want your custom factory settings restored, scan the bar code below to reset the reader to its initial configuration. Reference the PRG for other options, and a listing of standard factory settings.

NOTE
Factory defaults are based on the interface type. Be sure your reader is configured for the correct interface before scanning this label. See "Selecting the Interface Type" on page 5 for more information.

Reset Default Settings
Reading Parameters
Move the reader toward the target and center the aiming pattern and illumination system to capture and decode the image. See Using the PowerScan™ PD9530 on page 4 for more information.
The aiming system will briefly switch off after the acquisition time, and if no code is decoded will switch on again before the next acquisition. The illuminator will remain on until the symbol is decoded.

Operating Modes
Scan Mode
The imager can be set to operate in one of several scanning modes. See the PRG for more information and settings for any of the options:
Trigger Single (Default) — This mode is associated with typical handheld reader operation. Motion Sense is active and if the scanner detects motion the aiming pattern is turned on. When the trigger is pulled, illumination is turned on and the scanner attempts to read a label. Scanning is activated until one of the following occurs:
- the programmable 'maximum scan on time' has elapsed
■ a label has been read
■ the trigger is released
Trigger Pulse Multiple — Scanning begins when the trigger is pulled and continues after the trigger is released, until the trigger is pulled again or until the programmable 'maximum scan on time' ^1 has elapsed. Reading a label does not disable scanning. Double Read Timeout ^1 prevents undesired multiple reads while in this mode.
Trigger Hold Multiple —When the trigger is pulled, scanning starts and the product scans until the trigger is released or 'maximum scan on time' ^1 has elapsed. Reading a label does not disable scanning. Double Read Timeout ^1 prevents undesired multiple reads in this mode.
Always On — The illuminator is always ON and the reader is always ready for code reading. Double Read Timeout ^1 prevents undesired multiple reads.
Flashing — The reader illuminator flashes on and off regardless of the trigger status. Code reading takes place only during the Flash On ^2 time. Double Read Timeout ^1 prevents undesired multiple reads.
Stand Mode — The scanner looks for changes within its field-of-view. The Aiming Pattern is always on to show the optimum reading area. If a predefined amount of movement is detected, the red illumination switches on. Scanning continues until a label is read or "maximum scan on time" is reached.
- See the Product Reference Guide (PRG) for these and other programmable features
- Controlled by Flash On Time and Flash Off Time. Use the PRG to program these options.

Pick Mode
Specifies the ability of the reader to decode labels only when they are close to the center of the aiming pattern. Pick Mode is a Decoding and Transmission process where bar codes that are not within the configurable distance from the center of the aiming pattern are not acknowledged or transmitted to the host. It is active only while the scanner is in Trigger Single mode. If the scanner switches to a different Read Mode, Pick Mode is automatically disabled.

NOTE
This feature is not compatible with Multiple Labels Reading in a Volume. See the PRG for more information.

ENTER/EXIT PROGRAMMING MODE

◆ Plck Mode = Disable

Pick Mode = Enable
Multiple Label Reading
The reader offers a number of options for multiple label reading. See the PRG or software configuration tool for descriptions of these features and programming labels.

LED and Beeper Indications
The reader's beeper sounds and its LED illuminates to indicate various functions or errors on the reader. An optional ‘Green Spot’ also performs useful functions. The following tables list these indications. One exception to the behaviors listed in the tables is that the reader's functions are programmable, and so may or may not be turned on. For example, certain indications such as the power-up beep can be disabled using programming bar code labels.
| Indicator Description | LED Beeper | ||
| Power-up Beep | The reader is in the process of powering-up. | N/A | Reader beeps four times at highest frequency and volume upon power-up. |
| Good Read Beep | A label has been successfully scanned by the reader. | LED behavior for this indication is configurable via the feature 'Good Read: When to Indicate" (see the PRG for information.) | The reader will beep once at current frequency, volume, mono/bi-tonal setting and duration upon a successful label scan. |
| ROM Failure | There is an error in the reader's software/programming | Flashes | Reader sounds one error beep at highest volume. |
| Limited Scanning Label Read | Indicates that a host connection is not established. | N/A | Reader 'chirps' six times at the highest frequency and current volume. |
| Reader Active Mode | The reader is active and ready to scan. | The LED is lit steadilya | N/A |
| Reader Disabled | The reader has been disabled by the host. | The LED blinks continuously | N/A |
| Green Spot ^a flashes momentarily | Upon successful read of a label, the software shall turn the green spot on for the time specified by the configured value. | N/A N/A | |
| Image Capture | When ready to capture image | Blue light flashes 2 times when updating | N/A |
^a Except when in sleep mode or when a Good Read LED Duration other than 00 is selected
Programming Mode - The following indications ONLY occur when the reader is in Programming Mode.
| INDICATION DESCRIPTION LED BEEPER | |||
| Label Programming Mode Entry | A valid programming label has been scanned. | LED blinks continuously | Reader sounds four low frequency beeps. |
| Label Programming Mode Rejection of Label | A label has been rejected. | N/A | Reader sounds three times at lowest frequency and current volume. |
| Label Programming Mode Acceptance of Partial Label | In cases where multiple labels must be scanned to program one feature, this indication acknowledges each portion as it is successfully scanned. | N/A | Reader sounds one short beep at highest frequency and current volume. |
| Label Programming Mode Acceptance of Programming | Configuration option(s) have been successfully programmed via labels and the reader has exited Programming Mode. | N/A | Reader sounds one high frequency beep and 4 low frequency beeps followed by reset beeps. |
| Label Programming Mode Cancel Item Entry | Cancel label has been scanned. | N/A | Reader sounds two times at low frequency and current volume. |
Error Codes
Upon startup, if the reader sounds a long tone, this means the reader has not passed its automatic Selftest and has entered FRU (Field Replaceable Unit) isolation mode. If the reader is reset, the sequence will be repeated. Press and release the trigger to hear the FRU indication code.
The following table describes the LED flashes/beep codes associated with an error found.
