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 GD4200 readers ability to capture bar codes
from near to far, to read both high-density and low resolu-
tion codes, to decode hard-to-read, poor or damaged
codes and to easily read bar codes from mobile devices
make these readers the perfect choice for todays and
tomorrows applications in retail and office environments,
pharmacies, light industrial, warehouses and manufactur-
ing plants.
Perfect for manual reading, the Gryphon GD4200 linear
imager uses Datalogic's Motionix  motion detection
technology that detects the operator's natural actions to
automatically switch the scanner into "ready to read" scan
mode. The distinctive "soft line viewfinder" of Datalogic
helps the operator to easily identify the code to be read,
making easier and faster to point, shoot and decode the
correct label, reducing accidental readings in an environ-
ment with multiple bar codes.
The Gryphon I GD4200 reliably decodes all standard 1D (lin-
ear), including GS1 DataBar linear codes, Postal Codes
(China Post). The data stream - acquired from decoding a
symbol - is rapidly sent to the host. The reader is immediately
available to read another symbol.
An accessory is available which holds the reader at a con-
venient angle, allowing hands free scanning of items. It
can also be used as a holder. The reader automatically rec-

ognizes the insertion and changes its Scan Mode to allow
the user to operate in hands-free mode.

Follow the steps below to connect and get your reader up
and communicating with its host.
1. Connect the Cable to the reader and the Host as
shown below.
2. Configure the Interface (see page 8).
3. Program the Reader starting on page 16) (optional, as
needed).
USB
WEDGE
RS-232

To remove the interface cable from the reader, first locate
the hole on the back of the handle. Next, take a paper clip
and modify it as shown in the figure below. Insert the end
of the paper clip into the hole and press it to push on the
clip that holds the connector. As you apply pressure, pull
out the cable.
When reinserting the cable, make sure the connector clip
is on the same side as the reader release hole. Insert the
cable, it should click when it is fully inserted.

The Gryphon I GD4200 normally functions by capturing
and decoding codes. The reader is equipped with an inter-
nal Motionix motion-sensing function which activates
the aiming system on device motion. The intelligent aim-
ing system indicates the field of view which should be
positioned over the bar code:
A red beam illuminates the label. The field of view indi-
cated by the aiming system will be smaller when the
reader is closer to the bar code and larger when it is far-
ther from the code. Symbologies with smaller bars or ele-
ments (mil size) should be read closer to the unit.
Symbologies with larger bars or elements (mil size) should
be read farther from the unit. If the aiming system is cen-
tered and the entire bar code is within the aiming field,

you will get a good read. Successful reading is signaled by
an audible tone plus a good-read green spot LED indicator.
Refer to the Gryphon I GD4200 Product Reference Guide
(PRG) for more information about this feature and other
programmable settings.

Upon completing the physical connection between the
reader and its host, proceed directly to Interface Selection
below for information and programming for the interface
type supported by the reader and scan the appropriate
bar code to select your systems correct interface type,
according to your application.
For interfaces other than those listed in this manual, see
the Gryphon I GD4200 Product Reference Guide (PRG),
available online at www.datalogic.com.

RS-232 WN
IBM46XX port 9b (a specific cable's required)
USB HID POS
USB Toshiba TEC
USB (Keyboard, COM, OEM)
USB Composite (Keyboard + COM)
USB for Magellan Scanners
Keyboard Wedge
Information and programming options for each interface
type are provided in this section. For defaults and addi-
tional information associated with each interface, proceed
to the corresponding chapter in the Gryphon I GD4200
PRG.

Scan the appropriate programming bar code to select the
interface type for your system.

The reader attaches directly to a USB host, or a powered
USB hub, and is powered by it. No additional power supply
is required. When using a USB interface, the reader auto-
detects the USB cable and defaults to the USB keyboard
interface.

To use a Keyboard Wedge interface, scan the bar code for
the desired keyboard type.
