INTRODUCTION
1 INTRODUCTION
Datalogic has moved a step ahead in the concept of “instinctive reading. ”The new
Gryphon™ reader has been developed to provide optimised reading performance
through excellent ergonomic design, a natural instinctive reading approach and
innovative good reading feedback.
The “INSTINCTIVE READING DISTANCE,” a concept introduced by Datalogic a few
years ago based on in-depth ergonomic studies, represents the natural position of the
user while reading a code. The Gryphon™ series takes this concept one step
further. The series includes two tethered (D100 and D200) and two cordless (M100
and M200) models, allowing operations anywhere mobility is required at the
desk/POS and around the shop floor, as well as in a small warehouse. The new
“green spot,” (Datalogic patent application) produced by the Gryphon™ provides
“good reading” feedback directly on the code, where the user usually tends to be
looking. Correct pointing becomes quick and easy thanks to the sharp and bright
illumination line. All these characteristics are coupled with outstanding performance in
terms of reading quickness and decoding capability thanks to state-of-the-art optics
and a decode rate of 270 scans/sec, making the Gryphon™ very user friendly,
intuitive and fast.
Specially optimised optics allow reading of the most popular standard codes with
superior depths of field from near contact to over 30 cm. High resolution codes, which
can reach 3 mils are also easily read. Two specific models of the Gryphon™ series
(D200 and M200) have also been designed to provide decoding of the PDF417, as
well as traditional barcodes. The Gryphon™ reader series is paving the road for
innovative barcode reading.

The OM-GRYPHON™ incorporates a multi-standard interface which can be connected
to a Host by simply plugging the correct interface cable into the connector, placed on
the base of the cradle. In addition the cradle must be connected to an external power
supply.
To disconnect the cable, insert a paper clip or other similar object into the hole
corresponding to the Host connector on the body of the cradle.
Push down on the clip while unplugging the cable.

INSTALLATION
2.8 GRYPHON™ M BATTERY MAINTENANCE
2.8.1 Battery Type
You can install NiMh, NiCd or Alkaline AA batteries in the Gryphon™ M.
2.8.2 Battery Charging
Once the system is connected and powered, you can place the Gryphon™ M into the
cradle to charge the battery.
When the scanner is correctly inserted in the cradle, the red LED on the cradle goes on
to indicate that the battery is charging. The green LED on the cradle goes on when the
battery is completely charged.
When using NiCd or NiMh batteries, frequent recharging before fully discharging can
cause a “memory effect” in which the batteries assume a reduced capacity.
Since it is not practical to wait for the reader to be fully discharged before recharging it,
the OM-Gryphon™ and the C-Gryphon™ are provided with a battery-reconditioning
feature which overcomes the “memory effect” problem.
To perform battery reconditioning, simply press the battery-reconditioning key on the
cradle control panel: the battery will be fully discharged in a short period of time (red
LED flashing), then automatically recharged.
We recommend performing the battery reconditioning once every few months or
whenever you feel the battery capacity has decreased.
2.8.3 Replacing GRYPHON™ M Batteries
To change the batteries in your Gryphon™ M scanner, proceed as follows:
1. Unscrew the battery cover screw.
7
Page 16
GRYPHON™
2. Open the battery cover.
3. Replace the old batteries with new ones, then screw the battery cover back into
place.
WARNING
8
NiMh, NiCd, or Alkaline AA Batteries
Do not incinerate, disassemble, short terminals or expose to
high temperature. Risk of fire, explosion. Use specified
charger only. Risk of explosion if the battery is replaced by
an incorrect type. Dispose of the batteries as required by the
relevant laws in force.

GRYPHON™ M SYSTEM AND NETWORK LAYOUTS
3 GRYPHON™ M SYSTEM AND NETWORK LAYOUTS
There are two basic system layouts that can be employed: Stand Alone systems and
Multidrop STAR-System™ Networks.
3.1 STAND ALONE LAYOUTS
3.1.1 Single Reader Layout
3.1.2 Multiple Reader Layout
In stand alone systems, each cradle is connected to a single Host.
9
Page 18
GRYPHON™
3.1.3 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.
Multiple Stand Alone Systems in the Same Area
Since the cradles can communicate to multiple Gryphon™ M scanners, you might
find it useful to employ one or more C-Gryphon™ battery chargers in addition to the
OM-Gryphon™ cradle, so that the battery re-charging operation can be performed for
several scanners at the same time.
10
Page 19
GRYPHON™ M SYSTEM AND NETWORK LAYOUTS
3.2 MULTIDROP STAR-SYSTEM™ NETWORK LAYOUTS
Even though many stand alone systems can operate in the same physical area without
interfering with each other, it may be desirable to bridge data from multiple base stations
in a network to a single
Host. Gryphon™ M readers are compatible with
STAR-System™ networks. These networks provide seamless active roaming for any
RF reading device in the system.
3.2.1 Host Master Layout
A. Host Master with STAR-Link™
B. STAR-Box™ converter
C. STARGATE™ base stations
Example Multidrop STAR-System™ Network with Host as Master
In this layout the Host acts as the Master using STAR-Link™ software. The Host is
connected in RS232 to a STAR-Box™ converter which is connected to the first slave in
the RS485 network. In this way the base stations provide communications between a
single Host
and all readers in the system. STARGATE™ base stations are used as
slaves in this network. The Slaves at the ends of the network must be terminated (see
the STARGATE™ and STAR-Box™ Installation Manuals).
See par. 4.5 and or the Sm@rtSet Help On-Line for system configuration
specifications.

4.7 USB READER CONFIGURATION
The USB interface is compatible with:
Windows 98 (and later) IBM POS for Windows
Mac OS 8.0 (and later) 4690 Operating System
USB Start-up
As with all USB devices, upon connection, the Host performs several checks by
communicating with the USB device. During this phase the green LED on the device
blinks and normal operations are suspended. Two basic conditions must be met
before the USB device is ready to read codes, the correct USB driver must be loaded
and sufficient power must be supplied to the reader
For all systems, the correct USB driver for the default USB-KBD interface is included
in the Host Operating System and will either be loaded automatically or will be
suggested by the O.S. and should therefore be selected from the dialog box (the first
time only).
If the Host supplies sufficient power to the reader, the start-up phase ends correctly,
the LED stops blinking and the reader emits the beep OK signal.
If the Host does not supply sufficient power to the reader, a dialog box will appear on
the Host and the reader will be blocked (LED continues blinking). In this case,
disconnect the USB device cable at the Host
power-up an external supply to the USB cable then
Host and close the dialog box. The reader emits the beep OK signal. You can now
read codes. At this point you can read the USB interface configuration code
according to your application. Load drivers from the O.S. (if requested). When
configuring the USB-COM interface, the relevant files and drivers must be installed
from the USB Device Installation software which can be downloaded from the web
page http://www.scanning.datalogic.com
.

4.8 CHANGING DEFAULT SETTINGS
Once your reader is setup, you can change the default parameters to meet your
application needs. Refer to the preceding paragraphs for initial configuration in order
to set the default values and select the interface for your application.
In this manual, the configuration parameters are divided into logical groups making it
easy to find the desired function based on its reference group.
The RS232, WEDGE, PEN EMULATION groups are for Standard Interface
parameter configuration for Gryphon™ D series readers
Gryphon™ M/OM-Gryphon™ Stand Alone configurations only
:
The USB group is for Gryphon™ D USB
only.
The IBM 46xx group is for IBM 46xx models only.
The following parameter groups are common to all interface applications:
DATA FORMAT parameters regard the messages sent to the Host system for all
interfaces except Pen Emulation.
POWER SAVE manages overall current consumption in the reading device.
READING PARAMETERS control various operating modes and indicator status
functioning.
and
DECODING PARAMETERS maintain correct barcode decoding in certain special
reading conditions.
CODE SELECTION parameters allow configuration of a personalized mix of codes,
code families and their options.

EYBOARD SETTING
ALPHANUMERIC KEYBOARD SETTING
The reader can be used with terminals or PCs with various keyboard types and nationalities
through a simple keyboard setting procedure.
The type of computer or terminal must be selected before activating the keyboard setting
command.
Keyboard setting consists of communicating to the reader how to send data corresponding to
the keyboard used in the application. The keys must be set in a specific order.
Press and release a key to set it.
Some characters may require more than one key pressed simultaneously during normal use
(refer to the manual of your PC or terminal for keyboard use). The exact sequence must be
indicated to the reader in this case pressing and releasing the different keys.
Example:
If one has to press the "Shift" and "4" keys simultaneously on the keyboard to transmit the
character "$" to the video, to set the "$", press and release "Shift" then press and release "4".
Each pressed and released key must generate an acoustic signal on the reader, otherwise
repress the key. Never press more than one key at the same time, even if this corresponds to
the normal use of your keyboard.
Press "Backspace" to correct a wrong key entry. In this case the reader emits 2 beeps.
Note: "CAPS LOCK" and "NUM LOCK" must be off before starting the keyboard setting
procedure. "SHIFT" must be repressed for each character and cannot be substituted by
"CAPS LOCK".
setting the alphanumeric keyboard
ÌFB0TÎ
Read the code above.
Press the keys shown in the following table according to their numerical order.
Some ASCII characters may be missing as this depends on the type of keyboard: these are
generally particular characters relative to the various national symbologies. In this case:
• The first 4 characters (Shift, Alt, Ctrl, and Backspace) can only be substituted with
keys not used, or substituted with each other.
• characters can be substituted with other single symbols (e.g. "SPACE") even if not
included in the barcode set used.
• characters can be substituted with others corresponding to your keyboard.
The reader signals the end of the procedure with 2 beeps indicating the keys have been
registered.

• AIM standard identifiers are not defined for all codes: the X identifier is assigned to the
code for which the standard is not defined. The y value depends on the selected options
(check digit tested or not, check digit tx or not, etc.).
• When customizing the Datalogic Standard code identifiers, 1 or 2 identifier characters can
be defined for each code type. If only 1 identifier character is required, the second
character must be selected as FF (disabled).
• The code identifier can be singly disabled for any code by simply selecting FF as the first
identifier character.
• Write in the Custom character identifiers in the table above for your records.
