About the Reader
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 barcodes within this guide.
About the Reader
Several models of the Gryphon are available, and are covered
• Gryphon I GD4100 - Corded linear imager bar
• Gryphon I GM4100 - Cordless linear imager
• Gryphon L GD4300 - Model with Laser scan engine.
• Gryphon I BT 4100 - Model with Bluetooth options.

application which is downloadable 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
barcodes to print.
Advancements in the LED technology used in the imager-based readers significantly improve
the
illumination of the target field of view, resulting in higher scan efficiency. Whether used in
Single Trigger or Continuous Mode, the ergonomic design of the reader will help to promote
comfortable handling during extended periods of use.

The Base contains a button which is used primarily to perform a paging function. Pressing the
button causes a sound signal to be emitted by all scanners linked with this Base, as long as the
scanner is awake (see Powerdown Timeout on page 265) and reception is enabled (see Sleep Mode

BC40XX UV Counterfeit Detection
UV LEDs
The BC40XX Radio Base is available with a UV Counterfeit Money Detector, typically used to
verify the authenticity of bank notes. Other uses for counterfeit detection are passport, ticket,
credit card, travelers’ check and similar applications where it is possible to detect fluorescent
marks with UV light.
The detector contains eight special UV LEDs, as shown below:
BC40XX UV Counterfeit Detection
The Counterfeit Detector is based on UV fluorescent emission. Real banknotes under
ultraviolet rays usually absorb the UV light and will show special marks made with fluorescent
inks. On the other hand, most counterfeit banknotes only reflect the UV lights, without
showing fluorescent marks.
To use :
1. Quickly press the Base button to light the UV LEDs.
2. Hold the item to be verified under the LED lights to ensure that the special fluorescent
marks are visible.

3. The LEDs are set to switch off automatically after about 2 minutes. To keep the UV LEDs
in always-on mode, quickly press the Base button a second time within 10 seconds of the
first press. To switch them off, simply press the button again.
An external power supply is necessary for full functionality of the Base station with UV
Counterfeit Detector. Use only the recommended AC adapter 12Vdc.
The Gryphon GM4100 is available with an optional Display. The Display features 4 lines and
16 characters, and offers icons and three additional keys to allow a better interaction with a
remote host.

Introduction
As with other types of batteries, 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,
The typical manufacturer advertised useful life of LI
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 that is showing
excessive loss of capacity, it should be properly recycled / disposed of and replaced. For most
applications, batteries should be replaced after one year of service to maintain customer
satisfaction and minimize safety concerns.
Collect and recycle waste batteries separately from
Directive 2006/66/EC, 2002/95/EC, 2002/96/EC and subsequent modifications, US and
China regulatory and others laws and regulations about the environment.
Programming the Reader
Configuration Methods
Programming Barcodes
The reader is factory-configured with a standard set of default features. After scanning the
interface barcode, you can select other options and customize your reader through use of the
instructions and programming barcode labels available in the corresponding features section for
your interface. Customizable settings for many features are found in "Configuration Using
Barcodes" starting on page 37.

Some programming labels, like "Restore Custom Defaults" on page 33, require only the scan of the
single label to enact the change. Most, however, require
Mode prior to scanning them. Scan an ENTER/EXIT barcode once to enter Programming
Mode. Once the reader is in Programming Mode, scan a number of parameter settings before
scanning the ENTER/EXIT barcode a second time, which will then accept your changes, exit
Programming Mode and return the reader to normal operation.
There are some exceptions to the typical programming sequence described
above. Please read the description and setting instructions carefully when
configuring each programmable feature.

The power supply connects directly to the base (not on the cable's jack) for all configurations.
For all interfaces (except RS-232) a power supply is recommended but not necessary, because
the base can be powered from the Host. When the base is powered from the Host, select a slow
charge rate.
Configuring the Base Station
The base charger/station may be configured in desk application to hold the reader in two
different positions, either a horizontal or standing position, in order to provide the most
comfortable use depending on needs.

The base station is configured by installing one of two sets of mechanical parts that come with
the cordless kit. The default mounts (shown below) provide three options: vertical (wall)
mounting, standing (45°), or horizontal mounting with a higher mechanical retention of the
scanner. Use the other mounts only for horizontal mounting, with lower retention of the
scanner. The different parts may be interchanged to customize retention preferences.
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.

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

the reader was previously linked to another base, you must first scan the Unlink action
command before re-linking to the new base.
