Datalogic Scanning D8530 User Manual

USING POWERSCAN® D8530 

 

undesired effect, the Autoscan Pattern Code is placed in the PowerScan® D8530 
reading area which prevents decoding. Using this code as the background, code 
reading takes place normally by presenting desired codes to be read over the Pattern 
Code. Between each code read, the Pattern Code must be presented to the reader. 
 
The Pattern Code can be printed from the file of the manual (Appendix D) available 
on the CD-ROM. 
 
In case of low ambient light conditions, PowerScan® D8530 automatically activates 
the illumination system. If desired, the illumination system can be enabled so that it is 
always active. 
 

 
Exposure and Calibration 

Three automatic control modes are available to get the best tuning of the image to be 
captured: 

- 

Automatic based on entire image: camera control mode based on the analysis of 
the whole image. This mode works well in most standard applications. It is the 
default setting. 

- 

Automatic based on central image: camera control mode based on the analysis 
of a restricted area positioned in the central zone of the image. This mode is 
suggested when reading small codes positioned in a dark and extensive 
background. 

- Automatic 

for 

highly reflective surfaces: camera control mode allowing to read 

codes on highly reflective surfaces. This mode is suggested, for example, when 
reading codes positioned on plastic or metal surfaces.
