Gryphon™ GFE4400 Integration Guide This document gives instruction, mechanical details, and design considerations to integrate the Gryphon™ GFE4400 model (designated as “scan engine” or “OEM scan engine” in this manual) specifically into equipment-integrated scanning applications.
Overview GFS4400 scan module. This document is meant to give instruction, mechanical details, and design considerations to integrate the OEM scan engine model only. Details on the Configuration Settings and Programming are found in the GFS4400 Product Reference Guide (PRG). The Datalogic Aladdin Configuration Utility (available free from the Datalogic website) can also be used to modify settings.
Technical Support Scan Engine Care The scan engine contains sensitive components which require special handling. Datalogic may not warrant damage due to improper handling. • Do not disassemble the scan engine. Doing so will void the warranty. • Use standard ESD precautions & policies when handling the GFE 4400 scan engine. • Avoid touching the camera lens. Fingerprints will degrade the scan engine's performance. Technical Support Datalogic Website Support The Datalogic website (www.datalogic.
Mounting the Scanner Mounting the Scanner This section describes how to design the mounting for optimum scanner performance. General Considerations A typical system uses the scanner mounted inside a host enclosure, with an opening for the scanning pattern to exit and read bar codes. The opening should be the size of the scanner field of view at a minimum, but only exposing as much of the scanner as necessary.
Mounting the Scanner Scan Engine Electrical Connections The GFE4400 scan engine has three application ports for device integration, as indicated below, a Host (J1), User (J2), and Good Read Beep Interface. Figure 1. Scan Engine Application Ports J3 Beep Interface J2 User Interface J1 Host Interface Host Interface The Host Interface connection (J1) provides all the connection points for either RS-232 or USB host communications.

Mounting the Scanner USB For USB setup, the recommended wiring is the following. Figure 3. USB Cabling It is important that connections 7/8/9 be wired together for USB Auto Detection.
Mounting the Scanner RS-232 For RS-232 serial setup, the recommended wiring is shown below. Figure 4. RS-232 Cabling External Trigger and Digital Output The interface allows the user's adapting interface to trigger the scan engine if not set for Automatic Reading Mode. Also, a programmable digital output signal is available, which indicates a good read/decode. The figures on the following page provide interface suggestions.

Mounting the Scanner User Interface The User Interface connection (J2) provides the integrator a means to monitor scan engine status (LEDs), and offers an additional mechanism for manually triggering the device. The user connection (J2) uses a Molex part number, 0527460671, 0.50mm (.020") Pitch FFC/FPC Connector, Right Angle, SMT, ZIF, Bottom Contact Style, 6 Circuits, Gold Contact Plating.

Mounting the Scanner The following is an example of a possible connection scheme for the User Interface: Figure 7.
Mounting the Scanner Good Read Beep Interface The Beep Interface connection (J3) provides the integrator a means to tap the engine's good read beep signaling and interface with an external audio device. The Beep Connection (J3) is a Molex part number, 53261-0271, 1.25mm Pitch PicoBlade™ 2 Circuit Header. To attach to this SMT Right Angle Header, the integrator should use the Molex mating plug, 51021-0200 and wire crimp terminal, 50079-8000 or equivalent. Table 3.
Mounting the Scanner Figure 8. Beeper Connection Scheme Scanner Ventilation When mounting the scanner inside an enclosure, it is important to have proper ventilation to ensure that the scanner temperature does not exceed the maximum range as listed in "Technical Specifications" on page 19. The reliability of the scanner may be compromised if the temperature range is not maintained.
Mounting the Scanner Integrating the Scanner to Read at the Proper Distance When deciding how to mount the OEM scanner, there are many criteria that must be considered. First, there are minimum and maximum distances that the bar code can be from the front of the scanner to be properly read, depending on the size of the bar code. These distances, or depth of field, are specified in "Technical Specifications" on page 17.
Mounting the Scanner Design of the Scanner Opening The design and placement of the scanner opening within a host enclosure are critical for optimum system performance. A typical system uses the scanner mounted inside a host enclosure, with an opening to allow the scanner Field of View to exit the scanner window and read bar codes. Use the following guidelines to design the host enclosure and scanner opening, along with the dimensions shown in "Mechanical Specifications" on page 26.
Mounting the Scanner Integrating the Scanner Behind a Window The addition of a host enclosure window could degrade scanner performance. This is due to the optical reflective surfaces that will cause interference with the imaging technology. CAUTION It is recommended to conduct scan performance testing with any window to determine if the performance level is acceptable for the application. • Window material should be transparent with 92% transmission to wavelength 625nm and 850nm.
Mounting the Scanner ESD Protection The host enclosure design must provide adequate ESD protection for the scanner. Ideally, static discharge should not be allowed contact with the scanner. The preferred method to prevent static discharge is to provide a long discharge path to all circuits. The scanner is intended to be mounted inside a host enclosure. Only the front surface should be exposed in order to read bar codes.

Technical Specifications Indicators The reader’s green LED L2 of J2 illuminates to indicate various functions or errors. An optional “Green Spot” also performs useful functions. The following tables list these indications. One exception to the behaviors listed in the tables is that the reader’s functions are programmable, and so may or may not be turned on. Indicator Description LED L2 of J2 Good Read A label has been successfully scanned by the reader.
Indicator Flash Memory Update Description Occurs while update is in progress LED L2 of J2 Blue LED blinks a Except when in sleep mode or when a Good Read LED Duration other than 00 is selected Error Codes Upon startup, if the reader’s LED2 and Green Spot are blinking alternately, this means the reader has not passed its automatic Selftest and has entered FRU (Field Replaceable Unit) isolation mode. If the reader is reset, the sequence will be repeated.
