Using PowerScan™ M8300
2PowerScan M8300
USING POWERSCAN
M8300
The PowerScan
M8300 series readers can be used with either an BC-80X0 cradle or
Stargate™ radio base station to build a Cordless Reading System for the collection,
decoding and transmission of barcoded data.
PowerScan
M8300 laser readers automatically scan barcodes at a distance. Simply
aim and pull the trigger.
SCAN LINE POSITION
Code scanning is performed along the scan line emitted from the reading window.
This line must cross the entire code. The best reading angles are indicated in the
figure below:
READING ANGLE
Successful scanning is obtained by tilting the reader with respect to the barcode to
avoid direct reflections that impair the reading performance, see the figure below.
Using PowerScan™ M8300
Quick Reference Guide 3
AIMING SYSTEM
PowerScan
M8300 provides an aiming system. If enabled, a partial trigger press
produces a red spot, which should be aimed over the code center to get the best
reading performance, see figure (1) above. By completely pressing the trigger the
scan line appears to start the code scanning (2).
After setting up the reader
, you can enable or disable the aiming system by reading
the codes below:

Charging the Batteries
4PowerScan M8300
CHARGING THE BATTERIES
Once the BC-80X0/C-8000 is powered, you can charge the reader's batteries.
Place the PowerScan
M8300 into the BC-80X0 cradle or the C-8000 battery charger.
The "Reader" LED on the cradle/battery charger turns red.
The battery is completely charged when the "Reader" LED on the cradle/battery
charger turns green.
To change the batteries, unscrew the retaining screw and extract the battery pack
from the reader handle. Then, insert the new battery pack into the reader handle and
tighten the screw. (See the following figures).
Figure 1 – Changing the Batteries
Before using the Battery, read “Battery Safety” in the following section.
Datalogic recommends annual replacement of rechargeable battery packs
to ensure maximum performance.

Charging the Batteries
Quick Reference Guide 5
BATTERY SAFETY
To install, charge and/or perform any other action on the battery, follow the
instructions in this manual.
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 seri-
ous injury if exposed to abusive conditions. Be sure to follow the safety
warnings listed on this and the following page.
Do not place the battery pack in fire or heat.
Do not connect the positive terminal and negative terminal of the bat-
tery pack to each other with any metal object (such as wire).
Do not carry or store the battery pack together with metal objects.
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.
WARNING
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° – 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 sup-
plies 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.
CAUTION
Do not place the battery in or near fire, on stoves or other high tempera-
ture 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.
Charging the Batteries
6PowerScan M8300
As with other battery types, 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-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 to comply with
European Directive 2006/66/EC, 2011/65/EU, 2002/96/EC and 2012/19/EU,
and
subsequent modifications, US and China regulatory and other laws and regulations
about the environment.
CAUTION
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.
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.

M8300 CONFIGURATION
POWERSCAN
M8300/BC-80X0 POINT-TO-POINT SETUP
A rapid configuration procedure has been devised for point-to-point applications
where a single
reader is associated exclusively with its own BC-80X0 base station and
where it is not necessary to set the Date and Time parameters.
A special pre-printed bind-address label provided in the BC-80X0 base station
package can be used to bind the PowerScan
M8300 reader to the base station with
the address coded on the label. The address is also written numerically on the label to
be easily recognized. Valid addresses are in the range from 0000 to 1999. Make sure
that all cradles used in the same area have different addresses.
To rapidly configure your point-to-point application:
END of procedure. YOUR READER IS NOW READY TO READ CODES.
1. Apply the bind-address label onto the BC-80X0 base station as indicated in
the BC-80X0 Quick Reference Manual.
2. When the BC-80X0 cradle is connected and powered, read the
Bind-Address label to pair the PowerScan
M8300 to the BC-80X0 cradle.
The green LED on the PowerScan
M8300 will blink: the reader is ready to be
positioned onto the cradle.
3. Firmly position the reader onto the cradle within 10 seconds, a beep will be
emitted, signaling that the BC-80X0 cradle has been paired to the
PowerScan
M8300, and the green LED on the reader will go off.
If it ever becomes necessary to
change the reader, just read the
bind-address label applied to the
cradle and position the new
reader onto the cradle.
Do not use multiple readers with
this configuration method.
4. Configure the BC-80X0 cradle, refer to the “BC-80X0 Quick Reference”.
