About the Reader
About the Reader
The PowerScan 2D is a family of feature-rich and rugged area image readers. It is offered in several different models to better fit the different needs of each customer.
The main model categories are:
•PD9530-XX: Corded models.
•PM9500-XX: STAR-System(tm) models.
•PBT9500-XX: Bluetooth models.
Within each category, further differentiating features are available, described by the part number suffix:
•D: models equipped with display and 4-key keyboard
•DK: models equipped with display and 16-key keyboard
•DPM: models with laser, ink jet and dot peen reading capability
•HP: models with autofocus optic
Typically, units are factory-programmed for the most common terminal and communications settings. If you need to modify any programmable settings, custom configuration can be done by scanning the programming barcodes within this guide or with Datalogic Aladdin™, available from the Datalogic website. See "Datalogic Aladdin™" on page 6 for more information.
Advancements in the LED technology used in the imager-based readers significantly improve the illumination of the target field of view, resulting in higher scan efficiency. Whether used in Single Trigger or Continuous Mode, the ergonomic design of the reader will help to promote comfortable handling during extended periods of use.
In addition, the reader can be set up to read and output data from USA Driver License PDF417 bar codes. For more information reference the USA Driver License Parsing Quick Reference Guide (QRG), available on the Datalogic website.
See "Interface Selection" on page 14 for a listing and descriptions of available interface sets by model type.
PM8500 Compatible Mode:
Powerscan PM9500 offers a limited set of features compatible with the previous PM8500 family. To access those features, you have to program the system through the Compatibility Mode parameter (see "Compatibility Mode" on page 240 of the Wireless Configuration chapter).
When in normal mode, the same parameter can be used to configure the communication speed.

Introduction
The BC9xx0™ Base Station/Charger
The BC9xx0 base station, when paired with one or more PowerScan™ 9500 readers, builds a Cordless Reading System for the collection, decoding and transmission of bar code data. It can be connected to a Host PC via RS-232, USB, or KBD Wedge, and is suited for single-cradle layouts. The BC91x0 models also provide a spare battery charger slot.
The label on the cradle contains LED indicators and a multi-function button. When the button is pressed for less than 5 seconds, the cradle will transmit a "broadcast" message." When the broadcast is sent, all properly configured scanners (Radio RX Timeout set to keep the radio "awake") that are linked to that base and within radio range coverage will emit a beep and blink within 5 seconds. This functionality is useful to:
•verify which scanners are linked to a certain base station
•detect a scanner forgotten somewhere
When the button is pressed for longer than 5 seconds, all paired scanners will be unpaired.
The LEDs signal the BC9xx0-BT status, as shown in Table 1 on page 4.

If the device causes an abnormal current to flow, it may cause the battery to become hot, explode or ignite and cause serious injury.
Lithium-ion battery packs may get hot, explode or ignite and cause serious injury if exposed to abusive conditions. Be sure to follow the safety warnings listed below:
•Do not place the battery pack in fire or heat.
•Do not connect the positive terminal and negative terminal of the battery pack to each other with any metal object (such as wire).
•Do not carry or store the battery pack together with metal objects.
•Do not pierce the battery pack with nails, strike it with a hammer, step on it or otherwise subject it to strong impacts or shocks.
•Do not solder directly onto the battery pack.
•Do not expose the battery pack to liquids, or allow the battery to get wet.
•Do not apply voltages to the battery pack contacts.
In the event the battery pack leaks and the fluid gets into your eye, do not rub the eye. Rinse well with water and immediately seek medical care. If left untreated, the battery fluid could cause damage to the eye.
Always charge the battery at 32° – 104°F (0° - 40°C) temperature range.
Use only the authorized power supplies, battery pack, chargers, and docks supplied by your Datalogic reseller. The use of any other power supplies can damage the device and void your warranty.
Do not disassemble or modify the battery. The battery contains safety and protection devices, which, if damaged, may cause the battery to generate heat, explode or ignite.
Do not place the battery in or near fire, on stoves or other high temperature locations.
Do not place the battery in direct sunlight, or use or store the battery inside cars in hot weather. Doing so may cause the battery to generate heat, explode or ignite. Using the battery in this manner may also result in a loss of performance and a shortened life expectancy.
Do not place the battery in microwave ovens, high-pressure containers or on induction cookware.
Immediately discontinue use of the battery if, while using, charging or storing the battery, the battery emits an unusual smell, feels hot, changes color or shape, or appears abnormal in any other way.
Do not replace the battery pack when the device is turned on.
Do not remove or damage the battery pack’s label.
Do not use the battery pack if it is damaged in any part.
Battery pack usage by children should be supervised.
As with other types of batteries, Lithium-Ion (LI) batteries will lose capacity over time. Capacity deterioration is noticeable after one year of service whether the battery is in use or not. It is difficult to precisely predict the finite life of a LI battery, but cell manufacturers rate them at 500 charge cycles. In other words, the batteries should be expected to take 500 full dis-

Introduction
charge / charge cycles before needing replacement. This number is higher if partial discharging / recharging is adhered to rather than full / deep discharging,
The typical manufacturer advertised useful life of LI batteries is one to three years, depending on usage and number of charges, etc., after which they should be removed from service, especially in mission critical applications. Do not continue to use a battery that is showing excessive loss of capacity, it should be properly recycled / disposed of and replaced. For most applications, batteries should be replaced after one year of service to maintain customer satisfaction and minimize safety concerns.
Collect and recycle waste batteries separately from the device in compliance with European Directive 2006/66/EC, 2011/65/EU, 2002/96/EC and 2012/ 19/EU and subsequent modifications, US and China regulatory and others laws and regulations about the environment.
Programming the Reader
Configuration Methods
Programming Bar Codes
The reader is factory-configured with a standard set of default features. After scanning the interface bar code, you can select other options and customize your reader through use of the instructions and programming bar code labels available in the corresponding features section for your interface. Customizable settings for many features are found in "Configuration Parameters" starting on page 21.
Some programming labels, like "Restore Custom Defaults" on page 18, require only the scan of the single label to enact the change. Most, however, require the reader to be placed in Programming Mode prior to scanning them. Scan an ENTER/EXIT bar code once to enter Programming Mode. Once the reader is in Programming Mode, scan a number of parameter settings before scanning the ENTER/EXIT bar code a second time, which will then accept your changes, exit Programming Mode and return the reader to normal operation.
There are some exceptions to the typical programming sequence described above. Please read the description and setting instructions carefully when configuring each programmable feature.
Datalogic Aladdin™
Datalogic Aladdin™ is a multi-platform utility program providing a quick and user-friendly configuration method via the RS-232/USB-COM interface. Aladdin allows you to program the reader by selecting configuration commands through a user-friendly graphical interface running on a PC. These commands are sent to the reader over the selected communication interface, or they can be printed as bar codes to be scanned. Aladdin also facilitates image capturing.
In addition, Aladdin makes it easy to upgrade the handheld’s firmware, to attain the benefits of new reader features. Reference the Datalogic Aladdin™ Online Help for more details.
Aladdin is available for download free of charge on the Datalogic website.

Setup
BC9xx0 Configuration
The BC9xx0 configuration can be performed in three ways: by using the Datalogic Aladdin™ software configuration program, by sending configuration strings from the Host PC via the RS-232 or USB-COM interface or by reading configuration bar codes with the PowerScan™ 9500 reader.
Serial Configuration
By connecting the BC9xx0 to a PC through an RS-232 or USB-COM interface cable it is possible to send configuration strings from the PC to BC9xx0.
Configuration Bar Codes
Link the cradle and the reader using the procedures described in the PowerScan™ PM9500 or PBT9500 Quick Reference. Once the pairing is complete, you can configure the BC9xx0 cradle by reading configuration bar codes in this manual.
To configure the BC9xx0 using the PowerScan™ 9500 reader (paired to the cradle with the Bind command), follow the procedure according to the interface selected.
Interface Selection
Upon completing the physical connection between the reader and its host, proceed to Table 2 on page 15 to select the interface type the reader is connected to (for example: RS-232, Keyboard Wedge, USB, etc.). Scan the appropriate bar code in that section to configure your system’s correct interface type.
Setting the Interface
Scan the programming bar code from this section which selects the appropriate interface type matching the system the reader will be connected to. Next, proceed to the corresponding section in this manual (also listed in Table 2 on page 15) to configure any desired settings and features associated with that interface.
Unlike some 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 it for five seconds. The scanner will change to a state that allows programming with bar codes.
