Gryphon™ GFE4400
Integration Guide
This document gives instruction, mechanical details, and design consid-
erations to integrate the Gryphon™ GFE4400 model (designated as
"scan engine" or "OEM scan engine" in this manual) specifically into
equipment-integrated scanning applications.
Overview
The GFE4400 OEM scan engine is a compact decoding omni-direction-
al imaging scan engine for fixed position OEM integration, such as price
verifiers, kiosks, vending machines, point-of-sale (POS) terminals, and
other equipment-integrated scanning applications. The new proprietary
imaging technology excels at capturing hard-to-read bar codes in om-
ni-direction orientation.
A typical system using the scan engine consists of a host system such as a
price verifier or kiosk. The host system interfaces with the scan engine
and receives decoded bar code data produced by the scan engine. The il-
lumination LEDs in the scan engine emit visible light when a bar code
passes through the scan volume area and light is reflected off the bar code.
The scan engine captures an image, processes it into a digital signal and
decodes it into data that can be used by the host system. The scan engine
has different operational modes which can be selected via special pro-
gramming bar codes.
The OEM scan engine is the same reader as that found in the Gryphon
Integration Guide
