Chapter 1 Introduction About this Manual This Product Reference Guide (PRG) is provided for users seeking advanced technical information, including connection, programming, maintenance and specifications. The Quick Reference Guide (QRG) and other publications associated with this product are downloadable free of charge from the web- site listed on the back cover of this manual.
Telephone Technical Support If you do not have internet or email access, you may contact Datalogic tech- nical support at (541) 349-8283 or check the back cover of your manual for more contact information.
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™"...
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.
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 CAUTION void your warranty.
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. PowerScan™ PD9530/PBT9500/PM9500...
Chapter 2 Setup Unpacking Check carefully to ensure the reader and any accessories ordered are pres- ent and undamaged. If any damage occurred during shipment, contact Dat- alogic Technical Support. Information is shown on page KEEP THE PACKAGING. Should the unit ever require service, it should be returned in its original shipping container.
Setup Connecting the Cable (Corded versions) A. Rubber gasket B. Cable Holder C. Cover D. Connector Holder 1. Slip the cable through the Cover. 2. Push the Rubber Gasket onto the Cable Holder. FRONT>> 3. Push the Cable Holder and gasket into the handle.
Configuring the Base Station Configuring the Base Station To set up your BC9xx0 cradle you must: 1. Physically install the cradle. 2. Make all system connections. 3. Configure the BC9xx0 cradle. Mounting the BC9xx0 Cradle The cradle package contains the following items: BC9xx0 Base Station (with Desktop Mounting 1 Metal Mounting plate Bracket installed)
Setup To change the Bracket: 1. Remove the screw holding the Bracket in place. Retain the screw for re- use. 2. Carefully lift off the Bracket. 3. Install the other bracket by first slipping the end tab into place on the base station, then easing the tabs (shown in Figure 1 on page 9) into...
Mounting the BC9xx0 Cradle Mounting for Portable Use If portability of the cradle is required, the metal plate must be used. There are two ways this can be done: (1) by first mounting the metal plate on a flat surface so the cradle can be slid off and on, or (2) mounting the metal plate onto the back of the base station and then screwing both to the desired sur- face.
Setup Attaching the Metal Plate to Base Alternatively, the mount can be attached first to the base, then both can be mounted to a wall as described above. Figure 5. Attaching Mounting Plate to Base Base with Mount attached System Connections Connections should always be made with power off! CAUTION The BC9xx0 cradle provides a multi-interface connector and a power supply...
Mounting the BC9xx0 Cradle Connecting and Disconnecting the Interface Cable The BC9xx0 can be connected to a Host by means of a multi-interface cable, which must be simply plugged into the Host connector, visible on the front panel of the cradle. To disconnect the cable, insert a paper clip or other similar object into the hole corresponding to the Host connector on the body of the cradle.
Setup BC9xx0 Configuration The BC9xx0 configuration can be performed in three ways: by using the ™ Datalogic Aladdin software configuration program, by sending configura- tion strings from the Host PC via the RS-232 or USB-COM interface or by ™ reading configuration bar codes with the PowerScan 9500 reader.

3. Place the PM9500 into the BC9xxx. The Reader and Base will now be linked at the new programmed speed. This feature can also be programmed using Datalogic Aladdin. 1. On the BC9xxx Base, change the Compatible mode parameter to low, intermediate, or high speed through Aladdin.

Wireless Features 7. Scan the ENTER/EXIT PROGRAMMING MODE bar code to exit Program- ming Mode. Changing the pin code setting will unlink the devices. If the Automatic Configuration Update is set to the default enabled setting, the devices must only be relinked. If the Automatic Configuration Update is set to the disabled setting, the Pin Code setting must also be updated in the Base Station using Aladdin.
