Setting Up the Reader Follow the steps below to connect and get your reader up and communicating with its host. 1. Configure the Base Station starting on this page. 2. Charge the Batteries (see page 8). 3. Link to the Base Station (see page 14). 4. Select the Interface Type (see page 16). 5. Configure the Reader starting on page 30 (optional, depends on settings needed).
Configuring the Base Station A tool such as a rigid pen or a flat screwdriver can be used to change the mounts. Do not allow it to touch the contacts. 1. Insert the appropriate parts for the desired base station position, as shown below. Standing, Horizontal or Vertical 2. Horizontal Only Using your thumbs, push open the plastic tabs on the bottom of the base to free the wing holders. Tab Tab To ensure best contact and performance, do not intermix the parts of the two different mount sets.
Configuring the Base Station 3. The stand can now be repositioned in either horizontal or standing position.
Connecting the Base Station Connecting the Base Station Figure 1 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. Gryphon BT can also be Powered by the Terminal. When powered by the Terminal, the battery charger is automatically set as Slow charge.
Connecting the 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. The cables can be looped around to the front of the Base Station, or fed directly out the back of the Base Station, as shown in Figure 2 on page 5. Figure 2.
Connecting the Base Station Host Connection — Verify before connection that the reader’s cable type is compatible with your host equipment. The Gryphon I GBT4102 can be set up to require a PIN code when connecting to the host. If you are adding new equipment to a system that uses a custom security PIN, please see the PRG for information before proceeding. Most connections plug directly into the host device as shown in Figure 4.
Connecting the Base Station Using the BC4032™ Radio Base Radio Base LEDs LEDs on the Gryphon I Base provide information about the Bases well as battery charging status, as shown in Figure 6. Figure 6. Gryphon I Base LEDs YELLOW LED BUTTON RED LED — GREEN LED The following table describes the significance of each LED. Table 1. Radio Base LEDs LED STATUS Power on / Data Yellow On = Base is powered Yellow Blinking = Base receives data and commands from the Host or the Reader.
Charging the Batteries Charging the Batteries To charge the battery, simply insert the Gryphon into the base. When the scanner is fully seated in the cradle, it will sound a “chirp” to indicate that the cradle has detected the scanner connection. The LEDs on the base (shown in Table 1) will indicate the status of the battery. Before using the Battery, read “Battery Safety” in the following section. Datalogic recommends annual replacement of rechargeable battery packs to ensure maximum performance.
Charging the Batteries • Do not place the battery pack in fire or heat. • Do not connect the positive terminal and negative terminal of the battery pack to each other with any metal object (such as wire). • Do not carry or store the battery pack together with metal objects. • Do not pierce the battery pack with nails, strike it with a hammer, step on it or otherwise subject it to strong impacts or shocks. • Do not solder directly onto the battery pack.
Charging the Batteries CAUTION CAUTION Do not place the battery in or near fire, on stoves or other high temperature locations. Do not place the battery in direct sunlight, or use or store the battery inside cars in hot weather. Doing so may cause the battery to generate heat, explode or ignite. Using the battery in this manner may also result in a loss of performance and a shortened life expectancy. Do not place the battery in microwave ovens, high-pressure containers or on induction cookware.
Charging the Batteries CAUTION Only in case of long storage, to avoid deep discharge of the battery it is recommended to partially recharge the battery every three months to keep the charge status at a medium level. As a reference, run a fast recharge for 20 minutes every three months on unused products to avoid any performance deterioration of the cell. The useful life of LI batteries depends on usage and number of charges, etc.
Charging the Batteries Replacing the Batteries Before proceeding, read “Battery Safety” on the preceding pages. Datalogic recommends annual replacement of rechargeable battery packs to ensure maximum performance. Use the following procedure to change the reader’s battery: 1. With a screwdriver, unscrew the battery cover screw. 2. Unplug the three screws securing the battery holder, and unplug the white connector. Screw Connector Screw 3.
Charging the Batteries Pass-through hole Gold contacts circuit 4. Remove the old battery from its place (if present), and insert the new battery in the same position. 5. Replace the battery holder, plug in the connector and return the contacts circuit to its previous location. When inserting the new battery into the handle, take care to position the battery and the connector as shown. 6. Insert the cover in the handle and screw it back into place.
Linking the Reader Linking the Reader Link Datalogic RF Devices to Base 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 barcode before re-linking to the new base. Unlink Link Scanner to Bluetooth Adapter in Server Mode 1. Install any drivers provided with the Bluetooth adapter.
Linking the Reader Linking to Bluetooth Adapter in HID 1. Install any drivers provided with the Bluetooth adapter. 2. Scan the Link to a PC in HID bar code below to make the scanner visible to the host computer. 3. Use the host computer's Bluetooth manager to "Discover new devices" and select "Datalogic Scanner." If you receive an error message, it may be necessary to disable security on the device. 4. Select "connect" on the PC to link the reader to the PC.
Selecting the Interface Type System and Network Layout Typical Setup with Cradle and Host Figure 7. Reader Layout Selecting the Interface Type Upon completing the physical connection between the reader and its host, proceed directly to Interface Selection on page 16 for information and programming for the interface type the reader is connected to (for example: RS232, Keyboard Wedge, USB, etc.) and scan the appropriate barcode to select your system’s correct interface type.
Selecting the Interface Type Unlike some other programming features and options, interface selections require that you scan only one programming barcode label. DO NOT scan an ENTER/EXIT barcode prior to scanning an interface selection barcode. Some interfaces require the scanner to start in the disabled state when powered up. If additional scanner configuration is desired while in this state, pull the trigger and hold for 5 seconds. The scanner will change to a state that allows programming with barcodes.
