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:

General Features
To read a symbol or capture an image, you
simply aim the reader and pull the trigger.
Since the PowerScan™ PD9530 is a powerful
omni-directional reader, the orientation of the
symbol is not important.
Omni-directional
Operating
Thanks to powerful algorithms, PowerScan™
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 imme-
diately available to read another symbol.
Decoding
The string of a decoded code may be pro-
Formatting and
Concatenating
cessed according to either
a
simple or
advanced data formatting and be concate-
nated.

Setting Up the Reader
Imaging
PowerScan™ PD9530 can also function as a
camera by capturing entire images or image
portions of labels, signatures, and other
items.
An autoscan command causes the reader to
scan continuously and to monitor the central
zone of its reading area.
Autoscanning
Flash Memory
Flash technology allows you to upgrade the
PowerScan™ PD9530 reader as new symbolo-
gies are supported or as improved decoding
algorithms become available.
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 Aladdin™ or
the barcodes in the USA Driver License Pars-
ing Quick Reference Guide (QRG), available on
the Datalogic website.

Using the PowerScan™ PD9530
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 acti-
vates 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
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, Key-
board 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 addi-
tional 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.
NOTE
Some interfaces require the scanner to start in
the disabled state when powered up. If addi-
tional scanner configuration is desired while in
this state, pull the trigger and hold for 5 sec-
onds. The scanner will change to a state that
allows programming with bar codes.

Using Programming Bar Codes
This manual contains bar codes which allow you to recon-
figure your reader. Some programming bar code labels,
14
PowerScan™ PD9530
Programming
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 Pro-
gramming 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 Program-
ming 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.
Factory defaults are based on the interface
type. Be sure your reader is configured for the
correct interface before scanning this label.

does not disable scanning. Double Read Timeout pre-
vents undesired multiple reads while in this mode.
Trigger Hold Multiple — When the trigger is pulled, scan-
ning starts and the product scans until the trigger is
released or “maximum scan on time”1 has elapsed. Read-
ing a label does not disable scanning. Double Read Time-
out1 prevents undesired multiple reads in this mode.
Always On — The illuminator is always ON and the reader
1
is always ready for code reading. Double Read Timeout
prevents undesired multiple reads.
Flashing — The reader illuminator flashes on and off
regardless of the trigger status. Code reading takes place
2
only during the Flash On time. Double Read Timeout1
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.

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 acknowl-
edged 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 dis-
abled.
This feature is not compatible with Multiple
Labels Reading in a Volume. See the PRG for
more information.

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 func-
tions 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.

Datalogic ADC Limited Factory
Warranty
Warranty Coverage
Datalogic warrants to Customer that Datalogic's products will be
free from defects in materials and workmanship for a period of
one year from product shipment. Datalogic (“Datalogic”) hard-
ware products are warranted against defects in material and
workmanship under normal and proper use. The liability of Data-
logic under this warranty is limited to furnishing the labor and
parts necessary to remedy any defect covered by this warranty
and restore the product to its normal operating condition. Repair
or replacement of product during the warranty does not extend
the original warranty term. Products are sold on the basis of

logic has no obligation to modify or update products once sold.
If Datalogic determines that a product has defects in material or
workmanship, Datalogic shall, at its sole option repair or replace
the product without additional charge for parts and labor, or cred-
it or refund the defective products duly returned to Datalogic. To
perform repairs, Datalogic may use new or reconditioned parts,
components, subassemblies or products that have been tested
as meeting applicable specifications for equivalent new material
and products. Customer will allow Datalogic to scrap all parts re-
moved from the repaired product. The warranty period shall ex-
tend from the date of shipment from Datalogic for the duration
published by Datalogic for the product at the time of purchase
(Warranty period). Datalogic warrants repaired hardware devices
against defects in workmanship and materials on the repaired
assembly for a 90 day period starting from the date of shipment
of the repaired product from Datalogic or until the expiration of
the original warranty period, whichever is longer. Datalogic does
not guarantee, and it is not responsible for, the maintenance of,
damage to, or loss of configurations, data, and applications on the
repaired units and at its sole discretion can return the units in the
“factory default” configuration or with any software or firmware
update available at the time of the repair (other than the firm-
ware or software installed during the manufacture of the prod-
uct). Customer accepts responsibility to maintain a back up copy
of its software and data.
Warranty Claims Process
In order to obtain service under the Factory Warranty, Customer
must notify Datalogic of the claimed defect before the expiration
of the applicable Warranty period and obtain from Datalogic a re-
turn authorization number (RMA) for return of the product to a
designated Datalogic service center. If Datalogic determines Cus-
tomer’s claim is valid, Datalogic will repair or replace product
without additional charge for parts and labor. Customer shall be
responsible for packaging and shipping the product to the desig-
nated Datalogic service center, with shipping charges prepaid.
Datalogic shall pay for the return of the product to Customer if
the shipment is to a location within the country in which the Da-
28
PowerScan™ PD9530
Datalogic ADC Limited Factory Warranty
talogic service center is located. Customer shall be responsible
for paying all shipping charges, duties, taxes, and any other
charges for products returned to any other locations. Failure to
follow the applicable RMA policy, may result in a processing fee.
Customer shall be responsible for return shipment expenses for
products which Datalogic, at its sole discretion, determines are
not defective or eligible for warranty repair.
Warranty Exclusions
The Datalogic Factory Warranty shall not apply to:
(i)
any product which has been damaged, modified, altered,
repaired or upgraded by other than Datalogic service per-
sonnel or its authorized representatives;
(ii) any claimed defect, failure or damage which Datalogic
determines was caused by faulty operations, improper

storage or use of parts or accessories not approved or
supplied by Datalogic;
(iii) any claimed defect or damage caused by the use of prod-
uct with any other instrument, equipment or apparatus;
(iv) any claimed defect or damage caused by the failure to
provide proper maintenance, including but not limited to
cleaning the upper window in accordance with product
manual;
(v) any defect or damage caused by natural or man-made
disaster such as but not limited to fire, water damage,
floods, other natural disasters, vandalism or abusive
events that would cause internal and external compo-
nent damage or destruction of the whole unit, consum-
able items;
(vi) any damage or malfunctioning caused by non-restoring
action as for example firmware or software upgrades,
software or hardware reconfigurations etc.;
(vii) the replacement of upper window/cartridge due to
scratching, stains or other degradation and/or
(viii) any consumable or equivalent (e.g., cables, power supply,
batteries, keypads, touch screen, triggers etc.).
No Assignment
Customer may not assign or otherwise transfer its rights or obli-
gations under this warranty except to a purchaser or transferee
of product. No attempted assignment or transfer in violation of
this provision shall be valid or binding upon Datalogic.
