Setting Up the Reader 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 14). 3. Link to the Base Station (see page 19). 4. Select the Interface Type (see page 21). 5. Configure other settings if desired starting on page 33 (optional, depends on settings needed).
Configure the Base Station 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.
Configure the Base Station 3. The stand can now be repositioned in either horizontal or standing position. Horizontal Standing 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. The Gryphon GM4100 can also be Powered by the Terminal.
Configure the Base Station Figure 1. 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.
Configure the Base Station Figure 3. 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 4 on page 11. 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.

Using the BC40xx™ Radio Base Disconnecting the Cable: To detach the cable, insert a paper clip or similar object into the hole on the base, as shown in Figure 5. Figure 5. Disconnecting the Cable Insert Paper Clip Using the BC40xx™ Radio Base Base LEDs LEDs on the Gryphon I Base provide information about the Base’s status, as shown in Figure 6. Figure 6.
Using the BC40xx™ Radio Base The following table describes the significance of each LED: LED STATUS Power on / Data Yellow On = Base is powered Yellow Blinking = Base receives data and commands from the Host or the Reader. Charging Red On = the Battery is in progress. Charge completed Green On = the Battery is completely charged. Charging + Red and Green Blinking together = the Reader Charge completed is not correctly placed onto the Base.
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. 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 WARNING CAUTION CAUTION CAUTION In the event the battery pack leaks and the fluid gets into your eye, do not rub the eye. Rinse well with water and immediately seek medical care. If left untreated, the battery fluid could cause damage to the eye. Always charge the battery at 32° – 104°F (0° - 40°C) temperature range. Use only the authorized power supplies, battery pack, chargers, and docks supplied by your Datalogic reseller.
Charging the Batteries Storage of batteries for long time at fully charged status or at fully discharged status should be avoided. 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. CAUTION As a reference, run a fast recharge for 20 minutes every three months on unused products to avoid any performance deterioration of the cell.
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.
Charging the Batteries 3. Carefully lift out the gold contacts circuit, and remove the battery holder while letting the white connector pass through the hole in the battery holder (as shown below). 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.
Linking the Reader to a Base Station 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 relinking to the new base. Unlink System and Network Layouts Stand Alone Layouts Figure 8.
System and Network Layouts Figure 9. Multiple Reader Layout In stand alone systems, each cradle is connected to a single Host. Figure 10. Multiple Stand Alone Layouts Many stand alone connections can operate in the same physical area without interference, provided all readers and cradles in the system have different addresses.
Select the Interface Type Select the Interface Type Upon completing the physical connection between the reader and its host, proceed directly to Interface Selection on page 21 for information and programming for the interface type the reader is connected to (for example: RS-232, Keyboard Wedge, USB, etc.) and scan the appropriate barcode to select your system’s correct interface type.
