INTRODUCTION

ABOUT THE SCANNER

With rich feature sets and extensive model options, the Gryphon™ product series from
Datalogic represents the premium level of data collection equipment for general pur-
pose applications.
The Gryphon I GD4200 readers' ability to capture bar codes from near to far, to read
both high-density and low resolution 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, phar-
macies, light industrial, warehouses and manufacturing plants.
USING THE GRYPHON™ I GD/GBT/GM4200 READER
To read a symbol or capture an image, simply aim the reader and pull the trigger. Data-
logic's exclusive patented 'Green Spot' for good-read feedback helps to improve produc-
tivity 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 GD4200 reliably decodes all standard 1D (linear) 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.
