Reading Parameters
Move the reader toward the target and center the aiming 
and illumination system to capture and decode the image. 
See Using the PowerScan™ PD9531-AR on page 3 for more 
information.
The aiming system will briefly switch off after the acquisi-
tion time, and if no code is decoded will switch on again 
before the next acquisition. The illuminator will remain on 
until the symbol is decoded.
As you read code symbols, adjust the distance at which 
you are holding the reader.
