Chapter 1 Introduction About this Manual This Product Reference Guide (PRG) is provided for users seeking advanced technical information, including connection, programming, maintenance and specifications. The Quick Reference Guide (QRG) and other publications associated with this product are downloadable free of charge from the website listed on the back cover of this manual.
Introduction Manual Conventions The following conventions are used in this document: The symbols listed below are used in this manual to notify the reader of key issues or procedures that must be observed when using the reader: Notes contain information necessary for properly diagnosing, repairing and operating the reader. The CAUTION symbol advises you of actions that could damage equipment or property.
About the Reader About the Reader Typically, units are factory-programmed for the most common terminal and communications settings. If you need to modify any programmable settings, custom configuration can be accomplished by scanning the programming bar codes within this guide. Two models of the Gryphon 2D are available, and are covered in this manual: • Gryphon I GD44XX - Corded 2D imager bar code reader • Gryphon I GBT4400 - Model with Bluetooth options.
Introduction The BC40xx™ Radio Base Base LEDs LEDs on the Gryphon Base provide information about the Base’s status, as shown in Figure 1. Figure 1. Gryphon Base LEDs YELLOW LED BUTTON RED LED / GREEN LED The following table describes the significance of each LED: LED STATUS Yellow On = Base is powered Power on / Data Yellow Blinking = Base receives data and commands from the Host or the Reader. Charging Red On = Battery charging is in progress.
Battery Safety Battery Safety To reinstall, charge and/or perform any other action on the battery, follow the instructions in this manual. Before installing the Battery, read “Battery Safety” on this and the following pages. Datalogic recommends annual replacement of rechargeable battery packs to ensure maximum performance. WARNING Do not discharge the battery using any device except for the scanner.
Introduction As with other types of batteries, 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.
Chapter 2 Setup Unpacking Check carefully to ensure the reader and any accessories ordered are present and undamaged. If any damage occurred during shipment, contact Datalogic Technical Support. Information is shown on page 10. KEEP THE PACKAGING. Should the unit ever require service, it should be returned in its original shipping container.
Setup Installing the Interface Cable For Corded versions, connect the reader cable by inserting the cable into the handle as shown in Figure 2. To remove it, insert a paper clip into the release aperture, then unplug the cable. Figure 2. Connect/disconnect the cable RS-232 Serial Connection Turn off power to the terminal/PC and connect the reader to the terminal/PC serial port via the RS-232 cable as shown in Figure 3.
Installing the Interface Cable Keyboard Wedge Connection The Keyboard Wedge cable has a ‘Y’ connection from the reader. Connect the female to the male end from the keyboard and the remaining end at the keyboard port at the terminal/PC. Reference Figure 4. Figure 4. Keyboard Wedge Interface connection USB Connection Connect the reader to a USB port on the terminal/PC using the correct USB cable for the interface type you ordered. Reference Figure 5. Figure 5.
Setup nd Figure 6. Other Interface Connections W M Ke or... a IB W ybo ed ard ge or... Specific cables are required for connection to different hosts. The connectors illustrated above are examples only. Actual connectors may vary from those illustrated, but the steps to connect the reader remain the same. RF Models The power supply connects directly to the base (not on the cable's jack) for all configurations.
Configuring the Base Station Changing the Base Station Position The base station is configured by installing one of two sets of mechanical parts that come with the cordless kit. The default mounts (shown below) provide three options: vertical (wall) mounting, standing (45°), or horizontal mounting with a higher mechanical retention of the scanner. Use the other mounts only for horizontal mounting, with lower retention of the scanner.
Setup 3. The stand can now be repositioned in either horizontal or standing position. Horizontal Standing Connecting the Base Station Figure 7 shows how to connect the Base Station to a terminal, PC or other host device. Turn off the host before connection and consult the manual for that equipment (if necessary) before proceeding. Connect the interface cable before applying power to the Base Station. The Gryphon GBT4400 can be set up to require a PIN code when connecting to the host.
Configuring the Base Station Figure 7. Connecting the Base Station Wall plug Connector I/F Cable AC/DC Adapter DC Power Cord Base Station Securing the DC Power Cord (Optional) The DC power cord for the adapter can be secured to the bottom of the base in order to maximize the mechanical retention of the cable itself. The routing of the power cord can be changed to accommodate the base station positioning: horizontal, stand or wall mounting.
Setup Figure 9. Arrows showing routing Host Connection: Verify before connection that the reader’s cable type is compatible with your host equipment. Most connections plug directly into the host device as shown in Figure 10. Keyboard Wedge interface cables have a ‘Y’ connection where its female end mates with the male end of the cable from the keyboard and the remaining end at the keyboard port on the terminal/PC.

Configuring the Base Station Figure 11. Disconnecting the Cable Insert Paper Clip Connecting the Base when Security Pin is Enabled When connecting the Base to a system that has a custom Security Pin enabled, follow the steps below in the order shown: 1. Power down the host system. 2. Connect the appropriate interface cable into the Base as shown in Figure 10. 3. Place the reader in the Base. 4. Power up the host. The reader will link to the Base 5.
Setup Linking the Reader to a Base Station RF Devices For RF devices, before configuring the interface it is necessary to link the handheld with the base. To link the handheld and the base, press the trigger to wake it and place it on the base. If the reader was previously linked to another base, you must first scan the Unlink action command before re-linking to the new base.
Configuring the Base Station Linking to a PC in Client Mode (BT Master Mode) The reader can optionally be linked in client mode to a Bluetooth-enabled PC with the serial port profile. To do this, follow these steps: 1. Ensure the PC or terminal can network with Bluetooth devices and that it is powered on. 2. Ensure that a COM port is assigned under Services within the Bluetooth setup menu. 3. Create a Link label that contains the address of the PC Bluetooth adapter.
Setup Figure 13. Multiple Reader Layout Wireless models only (not valid for BT model) In stand alone systems, each base station is connected to a single Host. Figure 14. Multiple Stand Alone Layouts Mobile models only (not valid for BT model) Many stand alone connections can operate in the same physical area without interference, provided all readers and base stations in the system have different addresses.

Data Editing Please Keep In Mind... • • • • Modifying a message string is not a mandatory requirement. Data editing is a sophisticated feature allowing highly customizable output for advanced users. Factory default settings for data editing is typically set to NONE. A prefix or suffix may be applied only to a specified symbology (reference 1D Code Selection, starting on page 105) or across all symbologies (set via the Global features in this chapter).
References Global AIM ID This feature enables/disables addition of AIM IDs for all symbology types. AIM label identifiers (as opposed to custom characters you select yourself as with label identifiers) can be included with scanned bar code data. AIM label identifiers consist of three characters as follows: • A close brace character (ASCII ‘]’), followed by... • A code character (see the table below), followed by... • A modifier character (the modifier character is symbol dependent).
Data Editing Label ID A Label ID is a customizable code of up to three ASCII characters (each can be one of hex 0x010xFF), used to identify a bar code (symbology) type. It can be appended previous to or following the transmitted bar code data depending upon how this option is enabled. This feature provides options for configuring custom Label IDs as a pre-loaded set (see "Label ID: Pre-loaded Sets" below) or individually per symbology (see "Label ID: Set Individually Per Symbology" on page 266).

References Character Conversion Character conversion is an eight byte configuration item. The eight bytes are 4 character pairs represented in hexadecimal ASCII values. The first character in the pair is the character that will be converted. The second character in the pair is the character to convert to. If the character to convert in a pair is FF, then no conversion is done.
Reading Parameters Reading Parameters Label Gone Timeout This feature sets the time after the last label segment is seen before the reader prepares for a new label. The timeout can be set within a range of 10 milliseconds to 2,550 milliseconds (2.55 seconds) in 10ms increments.
