POWERSCAN® D8530 FAMILY
1
POWERSCAN® D8530 FAMILY DESCRIPTION
The present manual includes just a few commands to allow the startup of the
scanner and setting of the required interface. For complete configuration of the
scanner, refer to the PowerScan D8530 Reference Manual or the Aladdin
configuration program, both downloadable from the website and available on
the included CD ROM.
The PowerScan® D8530 Hand-Held Reader packs a lot of performance into an
attractive, rugged, hand-held device. It operates in commercial and industrial
environments as well as the front office.
Omni-directional
Operating
To read a symbol or capture an image, you simply
aim the reader and pull the trigger. Since
PowerScan® D8530 is a powerful omni-directional
reader, the orientation of the symbol is not
important.
Decoding
Thanks to powerful algorithms, PowerScan® D8530
reliably decodes all major 1D (linear) barcodes, 2D
stacked codes (such as PDF417), 2D matrix symbols
(such as DataMatrix™), postal codes (such as
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 to other codes (up to
4 different codes).
Imaging PowerScan® D8530 can also function as a camera
by capturing entire images or image portions of
labels, signatures, and other items. Two different
control modes are available for managing the camera
exposure and calibration.
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 the upgrade of the
PowerScan® D8530 reader as new symbologies are
supported or as improved decoding algorithms
become available.

DATALOGIC

USING POWERSCAN® D8530 FAMILY
PowerScan® D8530 normally functions by capturing and decoding codes.
The PowerScan® D8530 reader uses an intelligent aiming system. By pulling
the trigger, the aiming system indicates a field of view, which should be
positioned over the code:
Aiming System
When you pull the trigger, a red beam illuminates the code. If the aiming system
is centered and the entire symbology is within the aiming system, you will get a
good read. The field of view changes size as you move the reader closer or
farther away from the code.
Linear barcode 2D Matrix symbol
Relative Size and Location of Aiming System Pattern
Successful reading is signaled by an audible tone plus a good-read green LED.
NOTE
The PowerScan® D8530 hand-held reader aiming system is
designed for general reading and decoding of 1D and 2D symbols.
Some variation in reading distance will occur due to narrow bar
width and other factors.
NOTE
If reading codes positioned on reflective surfaces, it may be
necessary to tilt the reader with respect to the barcode and/or
set the Camera Control parameters. For configuring the Camera
Control parameters refer to the PowerScan® D8530 Reference
Manual available on the website and the CD-ROM.

INDICATORS
LED INDICATORS
The PowerScan® D8530 family uses green LED indicators to signal the
following reader functions:
STATUS BEHAVIOR
Power ON At power-on, the LEDs blink briefly, then
light up for 2 seconds to signal the power
supply is present.
Normal Function The LED lights up after a good decoding and
will switch off only at the next trigger press.
BEEPER
The PowerScan® D8530 basic software provides beeper signals for
good/wrong reading and for indicating errors. Its tone, volume and duration can
be directly configured by using the codes given in the PowerScan® D8530
Reference Manual available on the website.
The application program can also manage the beeper (User Defined Beeper)
when the reader is controlled by a Host PC. It is possible to activate the beeper
by sending a command from the Host to the reader via the current
communication interface.
GOOD READ SPOT
A green Good-Read Spot will be projected in the field of view when the reading
is successful.
SETUP
1. Make connections between PowerScan® D8530 and the Host PC using
the correct interface cable (see the following sections).
2. Read the correct Interface Selection code.
Your reader is now ready to read codes using the default settings.

CONNECTIONS
CONNECTING THE CABLE
A. Rubber gasket
B. Plastic boot
C. Cable spacer
D. Cover
E. Strain relief
cSlip the cover over the cable.
dPush the plastic boot into the
rubber gasket. Take care that the
tab on the plastic boot is aligned
with the notch in the rubber gasket.
ePush the plastic boot and gasket
into the handle. Ensure that the
“Front” marking on the plastic boot
is facing out, with the arrow
pointing towards the front of the
scanner.
fInsert the cable into the socket of
the plastic boot.
gInsert the cable spacer into the
cable wire and slide it towards the
handle.
hPush the cover along the cable
towards the reader, and hook it
over the yellow “tooth”.
iInsert the strain relief into the cover
and tighten the screw to fix the
whole assembly to the reader
handle.

START-UP
As with all USB devices, upon connection, the Host performs several checks by
communicating with the PowerScan® D8530™. During this phase the green
LED on the PowerScan® D8530™reader blinks and normal operations are
suspended. The correct USB driver must be loaded before the PowerScan
D8530 is ready to read codes
For all systems, the correct USB driver for the default USB-KBD interface is
included in the Host Operating System and will either be loaded automatically or
will be suggested by the O.S. and should therefore be selected from the dialog
box (the first time only).
When configuring the USB-COM interface, the relevant files and drivers must be
installed from the USB Device Installation software, which can be downloaded
from the web site http://www.scanning.datalogic.com or can be found on the
CD-ROM.
The reader is ready.
