GRYPHON™ M SERIES

USING GRYPHON™ M SERIES READERS
The Gryphon™ M series reader, paired with an OM-Gryphon™ cradle, builds a
Cordless Reading System for the collection, decoding and transmission of
barcoded data.
Gryphon™ M readers automatically scan barcodes at a distance. Simply aim
and pull the trigger. Code scanning is performed along the center of the light bar
emitted from the reading window. This bar must cover the entire code.
READING ANGLE
Successful scanning is obtained by tilting the reader with respect to the barcode
to avoid direct reflections which impair the reading performance, see the figure
below.
Successful reading is obtained by an audible tone plus a good-read green spot.
OK Not Advised
