NOTES
Quick Reference Guide 1
Powerscan™ PBT9500
Description
The PowerScan™ PBT9500 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
Model P/N Optical feature
PBT9500-XX Standard optic, standard and low density codes PBT9500-HPXX
Autofocus optic, High, standard and low density
codes, wide angle PBT9500­DPMXX
High Density optic, high and medium density
codes, DPM (laser, ink jet and dot peen)
Omni-directional Operating
To read a symbol or capture an image, you sim­ply aim the reader and pull the trigger. Since the PowerScan™ PBT9500 is a powerful omni­directional reader, the orientation of the sym­bol is not important.
Decoding
Thanks to powerful algorithms, PowerScan™ PBT9500 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
PowerScan™ PBT9500 can also function as a camera by capturing entire images (valid only for RS-232 and USB-COM on the Base Station).
Using the PowerScan™ PBT9500
2PowerScan PBT9500
Using the PowerScan™ PBT9500
The PowerScan™ PBT9500 normally functions by captur­ing and decoding bar codes. The reader is equipped with an internal 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
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 PowerScan™ PBT9500 reader as new symbolo­gies are supported or as new features 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 Aladdin™ or the barcodes in the USA Driver License Parsing Quick Reference Guide (QRG), available on the Datalogic website.

Quick Reference Guide 3
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 9500 Product Reference Guide (PRG) for more information about this feature and other programmable settings.
Installing the Battery Pack
To install, charge and/or do any other action on the bat­tery, follow the instructions in this manual.
To charge the Battery Pack, See “Charging the Batteries” on page 6.
Datalogic recommends annual replacement of rechargeable battery packs to ensure maximum performance.
WARNING
Do not discharge the battery using any device except for the scanner. When the bat­tery is used in devices other than the desig­nated product, it may damage the battery or reduce its life expectancy. 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 that follow:
• 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.
Installing the Battery Pack
4PowerScan PBT9500
WARNING
• 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.
CAUTION
Always charge the battery at 32° – 113°F (0°
- 45°C) temperature range. Use only the authorized power supplies, bat-
tery 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.
Installing the Battery Pack
Quick Reference Guide 5
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 discharge / 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 comply with European Directive 2006/66/EC, 2011/65/EU, 2002/96/EC and 2012/19/EU an
dsubse-
quent modifications, US and China regulatory and others laws and regulations about the environment.
CAUTION
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.

Programming
Quick Reference Guide 7
Programming
The reader is factory-configured with a set of standard default features. Customize your reader through use of the programming bar codes available in the PowerScan PBT9500. 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 8, 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
Do not incinerate, disassemble, short ter­minals or expose to high temperature. Risk of fire, explosion. Use specified charger only. Risk of explosion if the battery is replaced by an incorrect type. Dispose of the batteries as required by the relevant laws in force.
