About this Manual

This Product Reference Guide (PRG) is provided for users seeking advanced technical information, including connection, programming, maintenance and specifications. The Quick Reference Guide (QRG) and other publications associated with this product are downloadable free of charge from the website listed on the back cover of this manual.
Typically, units are factory-programmed for the most common terminal and communica­tions settings. If you need to modify any programmable settings, custom configuration can be accomplished by scanning the programming bar codes within this guide.
Programming can alternatively be performed using the Datalogic Aladdin™ Configuration application, which is available from the Datalogic website listed on the back cover of this manual. This multi-platform utility program allows device configuration using a PC. It communicates to the device using a serial or USB cable and can also create configuration bar codes to print.

About the Scanner

A
B
With rich feature sets and extensive model options, the Gryphon™ product series from Datalogic represents the premium level of data collection equipment for general purpose applications. The Gryphon I GD4500 reader has enhanced Megapixel optics with improved motion tolerance, allowing codes placed on fast-moving objects to be easily and quickly captured, creating the ideal reader for tasks requiring high throughput like those found in retail, light industrial environments and healthcare.

Using the GD4500 Reader

To read a symbol or capture an image, simply aim the reader and pull the trigger. The Gry­phon™ I GD4500 is a powerful omni-directional reader, so not important. Datalogic's exclusive patented 'Green Spot' for good-read feedback helps to improve productivity in noisy environments or in situations where silence is required. When positioning the product into the stand, the magnetic coupling will make the scanner automatically detect a bar code inside the field of view, and switch the reading system from trigger mode to autosense mode.
The Gryphon™ I GD4500 reliably decodes all standa ing GS1 DataBar™ linear codes, Postal Codes DataBar Expanded Stacked, GS1 DataBar Stacked, GS1 DataBar, Stacked Omnidirectional). The data stream - acquired from decoding a symbol - is rapidly sent to the host. The reader is immediately available to read another symbol.

Introduction
As with other battery types, Lithium-Ion (LI) batteries will lose capacity over time. Capacity deterioration is noticeable after one year of service whether the battery is in use or not. It is difficult to precisely predict the finite life of a LI battery, but cell manufacturers rate them at 500 charge cycles. In other words, the batteries should be expected to take 500 full discharge/charge cycles before needing replacement. This number is higher if partial discharging/recharging is adhered to rather than full/deep discharging
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 unused products to avoid any performance deterioration of the cell.
20 minutes every three months on
The useful life of LI batteries depends on usage and number of charges, etc., after which they should be removed from service, especially in mission critical applications. Do not continue to use a battery showing excessive loss of capacity, it should be properly recycled / disposed of and replaced.
Collect and recycle waste batteries sepa

Programming the Reader

Configuration Methods

Programming Bar Codes
The reader is factory-configured with a standard set of default features. After scanning the interface bar code, you can select other options and customize your reader through use of the instructions and programming bar code labels available in the corresponding features section for your interface. Customizable settings for many features are found in page 33.
Some programming labels, like only the scan of the single label to enact the change. Most, however, require the read
er to be placed in Programming Mode prior to scanning them. Scan an ENTER/EXIT bar code once to enter Programming Mode. Once the reader is in Programming Mode, scan a number of parameter settings before scanning the ENTER/EXIT bar code a second time, which will then accept your changes, exit Programming Mode and return the reader to normal operation.

Next, proceed to the corresponding chapter in this manual (also listed in the table) to configure any desired settings and features associated with that inter­face.
Unlike some other programming featur you scan only one programming bar code label. DO NOT scan an ENTER/EXIT bar code prior to scanning an interface selection bar code. Some interfaces require the scanner to start in the disabled state when powered up. If additional scanner configuration is

graph over the selected communication interface, or they can be printed as bar codes to be scanned.
Aladdin also provides the ability to perform a software upgrade for the con­nected device (see the Datalogic Aladdin™ Help On-Line for more details).
