INTRODUCTION

1 INTRODUCTION
Datalogic has moved a step ahead in the concept of “instinctive reading. ”The new
Gryphon™ reader series 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 (D130 and D230) and two cordless (M130
and M230) 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
(D230 and M230) 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.

2.8 GRYPHON™ MX30 BATTERY MAINTENANCE
2.8.1 Battery Type
You can install NiMh or Alkaline AA batteries in the Gryphon™ Mx30.
2.8.2 Battery Charging
Once the system is connected and powered, you can place the Gryphon™ Mx30 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 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.

3 GRYPHON™ MX30 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.
10
GRYPHON™ MX30 SYSTEM AND NETWORK LAYOUTS
3
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™ Mx30 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.
11

GRYPHON™ Dx30/Mx30
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™ Mx30 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.

If you wish to change the default settings, this manual provides complete
configuration of your reader in an easy way.
To configure your reader:
1) Open the folded page in Appendix C with the hex-numeric table and keep it
open during the device configuration.
2) Read the Enter Configuration code ONCE, available at the top of each page
of configuration.
3) Modify the desired parameters in one or more sections following the
procedures given for each group.
4) Read the Exit and Save Configuration code ONCE, available at the top of
each page of configuration.
Reference notes describing the operation of the more complex parameters are given
in chapter 5.
4.1.2 Using DL Sm@rtSet
DL Sm@rtSet is a Windows-based utility program providing a quick and user-friendly
configuration method via the RS232 or USB-COM interfaces.
It also allows upgrading the software of the connected device (see the DL Sm@rtSet
User's Manual for more details).
4.1.3 Copy Command
A previously configured device (Master), can be used to send its configuration directly to
other devices of the same type (Slaves). The particular procedure for each device is
given in par. 5.9.

GRYPHON™ Dx30/Mx30
4.1.4 Sending Configuration Strings from Host
An alternative configuration method is provided in Appendix A using the RS232 or
USB-COM interface. This method is particularly useful when many devices need to
be configured with the same settings. Batch files containing the desired parameter
settings can be prepared to configure devices quickly and easily.
4.2 SETUP PROCEDURES
For Gryphon™ Dx30 Series readers, follow the setup procedures in pars. 4.3, 4.6
and 4.7.
For Gryphon™ Mx30 Series readers, the setup procedures depend on two basic
applications, Stand Alone or STAR-System™.
Stand Alone applications allow communication with the Host by either the
OM-Gryphon™ cradle (par. 4.4), or by the STAR-Modem™ radio modem
(par. 4.4.2).
STAR-System™ applications allow communication with the Host through an RS485
network by the STARGATE™ RF base station or by the STAR-Modem™ radio
modem (par. 4.5).
Proceed as shown in the following diagram:

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 Gryphon™ Dx30. During this phase the green LED on the
Gryphon™ Dx30 reader blinks and normal operations are suspended. Two basic
conditions must be met before the Gryphon™ Dx30 is ready to read codes,
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).
Normally the Host supplies sufficient power to the
reader, the start-up phase ends correctly, the green
LED stops blinking and the reader emits the beep OK
signal.
In rare cases, if the Host does not supply sufficient

and then try a different USB port as indicated by the

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 USBCOM 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.datalogic.com.
The reader is ready to read barcodes. Successive start-ups will automatically
recognize the previously loaded drivers.

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 first four groups are for Standard Interface parameter configuration:
RS232
USB
WEDGE
PEN EMULATION
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.
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.
ADVANCED FORMATTING PARAMETERS allow code concatenation and advanced
formatting of messages towards the Host. It cannot be used with Pen Emulation
connections.
RADIO PARAMETERS (Mx30 series only) allow configuration of radio control
parameters.

KEYBOARD 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".

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

• 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.

Conditions:
• Adjustment is only performed on the barcode data, the Code Identifier and Code Length
Transmission fields are not modified by the field adjustment parameter.
• If the field setting would subtract more characters than exist in the barcode, the subtraction
will take place only to code length 0.
• You can set up to a maximum of 10 different field adjustments on the same barcode family
or on different barcode families.
