GRYPHON™ I GBT/GM4500 2D

IMAGING TECHNOLOGY

The Gryphon™ 4500 series represents the premium range of hand
held scanners from Datalogic for general purpose applications.
Designed with people in mind, the Gryphon 4500 series stands
out with its elegant and cutting edge design, the unchallenged
ergonomics, and features the most advanced Megapixel sensor with

white-illumination 2D technology for outstanding performance.

WIRELESS COMMUNICATIONS

Featuring Bluetooth® wireless technology (GBT model) or narrow
band radio communications with Datalogic’s STAR Cordless System™
(GM model), the Gryphon 4500 wireless readers provide maximum
flexibility to solve any end user application with the best technical
solution.

WIRELESS CHARGING

One of the most important technical innovations that the Gryphon

WIRELESS, QUICK, CAREFREE

4500 wireless scanners achieve is the battery recharge through an
inductive charging system, which enhances the reliability of the entire
solution, lowering the total cost of ownership because it eliminates
the need for contacts’ cleaning and maintenance procedures. The
maximum reliability offered by the Gryphon wireless charging
technology means 24/7 activities with no stops for maintenance or
repair and top-level operating productivity and performance.

SIMPLE TO USE AND DEPLOY

The Gryphon I 4500 omnidirectional imager provides snappy reading
performance on all common 1D and 2D codes. High Density (HD)
models are available for reading smaller, condensed codes as well
as a dedicated version with red illumination optics to support Digital
Watermarking.

Datalogic’s Motionix™ motion-sensing technology enables the
scanner to intuitively switch into hand held mode when the device is
picked up. When placed back into the stand, it seamlessly returns to
stand mode. The adjustable position cradle provides the flexibility to
use the scanner in presentation or stand mode while it’s charging.
