DIAMOND™ D531 

 

USING DIAMOND™ 

 
The Datalogic Diamond™ D531 is an omni-directional scanner, which 
generates a scan pattern of 16 lines, thus ensuring high performance scanning. 
 
Barcodes are read simply on presentation to the scanner window. 
 
The Diamond™ scanner can be used 

handsfree

 as well as 

hand-held

, e.g.: 

 
a)  Handsfree scanning by presenting the item to the scanner using a 

sweeping curved motion towards the scanner window. 

 

 

 

 
 
b)  You can also use it as a hand-held device by presenting the scanner to the 

item using a sweeping curved motion towards the item. 

 

 

 

 
 

SLEEP STATE 

 
After a default stand-by timeout the scanner enters a "Sleep" state for minimum 
power consumption in which the scanner Laser is OFF and the motor is not 
rotating. 
 
It is possible to exit this state by simply pressing the trigger.
