POWERSCAN™ PM/PBT9600
PM9600 4-key and 16-key Models
The PM9600 series offers two display options: 4 configu

exchange of information for more reliable and effective
communications.
The table below illustrates the key functions of the two
models.

Concatenating
The string of a decoded code may be processed according to
either a simple or advanced data formatting and be concate

Imaging
PowerScan™ PM/PBT9600 can also function as a camera by
capturing entire images or image portions of labels, signa
-
tures, and other items.
Autoscanning
An autoscan command causes the reader to scan continu
-
ously and to monitor the central zone of its reading area.
Flash Memory
Flash technology allows you to upgrade the PowerScan™
PM/PBT9600 reader as new symbologies are supported or
as improved decoding algorithms become available.
