About the Reader

Typically, units are factory-programmed for the most common terminal and communications settings. If you need to modify any programmable settings, custom configuration can be accomplished by scanning the programming barcodes within this guide.

Several models of the Gryphon are available, and are covered in this manual:

• Gryphon I GD4100 - Corded linear imager bar code reader
• Gryphon I GM4100 - Cordless linear imager barcode reader with Datalogic STAR™.
  • Gryphon L GD4300 - Model with Laser scan engine.
  • Gryphon I BT 4100 - Model with Bluetooth options.

Programming can alternatively be performed using the Datalogic Aladdin™ Configuration application which is downloadable from the Datalogic website listed on the back cover of this manual. This multi-platform utility program allows device configuration using a PC. It communicates to the device using a serial or USB cable and can also create configuration barcodes to print.

Advancements in the LED technology used in the imager-based readers significantly improve the illumination of the target field of view, resulting in higher scan efficiency. Whether used in Single Trigger or Continuous Mode, the ergonomic design of the reader will help to promote comfortable handling during extended periods of use.

See "Interface Selection" on page 28 for a listing and descriptions of available interface sets by model type.

The BC40xx™ Radio Base

Base LEDs

LEDs on the Gryphon I Base provide information about the Base's status, as shown in Figure 1.

Figure 1. Gryphon I Base LEDs

YELLOW LED RED LED / GREEN LED BUTTON

The following table describes the significance of each LED:

	LED STATUS
	Power on / Data	Yellow On = Base is poweredYellow Blinking = Base receives data and commands from the Host or the Reader.
	Charging Red On = Battery charging is in progress.
	Charge completed Green On = the Battery is completely charged.
	Charging + Charge completed	Red and Green Blinking together = the Reader is not correctly placed onto the Base.

See Base Station Indications on page 327 for more specific details on the LEDs.

Base Button

The Base contains a button which is used primarily to perform a paging function. Pressing the button causes a sound signal to be emitted by all scanners linked with this Base, as long as the scanner is awake (see Powerdown Timeout on page 265) and reception is enabled (see Sleep Mode Timeout on page 94). The button can also be used to "force device connection" via the Datalogic Aladdin Software tool (available for free download from the Datalogic website). See the Aladdin Online Help for details.

Star Model

For the Star model, press and hold (longer than one second) to initiate paging.

BT Model

For the BT model, press quickly (less than one second) to initiate paging. Press and hold (longer than one second) to enable radio linking. This will make the base discoverable from a BT master.

BC40XX UV Counterfeit Detection

The BC40XX Radio Base is available with a UV Counterfeit Money Detector, typically used to verify the authenticity of bank notes. Other uses for counterfeit detection are passport, ticket, credit card, travelers' check and similar applications where it is possible to detect fluorescent marks with UV light.

The detector contains eight special UV LEDs, as shown below:

UV LEDs

The Counterfeit Detector is based on UV fluorescent emission. Real banknotes under ultraviolet rays usually absorb the UV light and will show special marks made with fluorescent inks. On the other hand, most counterfeit banknotes only reflect the UV lights, without showing fluorescent marks.

To use:

1. Quickly press the Base button to light the UV LEDs.

2. Hold the item to be verified under the LED lights to ensure that the special fluorescent marks are visible.

1. The LEDs are set to switch off automatically after about 2 minutes. To keep the UV LEDs in always-on mode, quickly press the Base button a second time within 10 seconds of the first press. To switch them off, simply press the button again.

An external power supply is necessary for full functionality of the Base station with UV Counterfeit Detector. Use only the recommended AC adapter 12Vdc.

Display

The Gryphon GM4100 is available with an optional Display. The Display features 4 lines and 16 characters, and offers icons and three additional keys to allow a better interaction with a remote host.

Fonts, contrast, backlight and other parameters can be configured for the Display. See Display Features on page 272 and Message Formatting on page 317 for more information.

STAR-FIELD COVERAGE Yell BATTERY CHARGE STATUS

Battery Safety

To reinstall, charge and/or perform any other action on the battery, follow the instructions in this manual.

Before installing the Battery, read "Battery Safety" on this and the following pages. Datalogic recommends annual replacement of rechargeable battery packs to ensure maximum performance.

Do not discharge the battery using any device except for the scanner. When the battery is used in devices other than the designated product, it may damage the battery or reduce its life expectancy. If the device causes an abnormal current to flow, it may cause the battery to become hot, explode or ignite and cause serious injury.

Lithium-ion battery packs may get hot, explode or ignite and cause serious injury if exposed to abusive conditions. Be sure to follow the safety warnings listed below:

• Do not place the battery pack in fire or heat.
• Do not connect the positive terminal and negative terminal of the battery pack to each other with any metal object (such as wire).
• Do not carry or store the battery pack together with metal objects.
• Do not pierce the battery pack with nails, strike it with a hammer, step on it or otherwise subject it to strong impacts or shocks.
• Do not solder directly onto the battery pack.
• Do not expose the battery pack to liquids, or allow the battery to get wet.
• Do not apply voltages to the battery pack contacts.

In the event the battery pack leaks and the fluid gets into your eye, do not rub the eye. Rinse well with water and immediately seek medical care. If left untreated, the battery fluid could cause damage to the eye.

Always charge the battery at 32^-104^ ( 0^-40^ ) temperature range.

Use only the authorized power supplies, battery pack, chargers, and docks supplied by your Datalogic reseller. The use of any other power supplies can damage the device and void your warranty.

Do not disassemble or modify the battery. The battery contains safety and protection devices, which, if damaged, may cause the battery to generate heat, explode or ignite.

Do not place the battery in or near fire, on stoves or other high temperature locations.

Do not place the battery in direct sunlight, or use or store the battery inside cars in hot weather. Doing so may cause the battery to generate heat, explode or ignite. Using the battery in this manner may also result in a loss of performance and a shortened life expectancy.

Do not place the battery in microwave ovens, high-pressure containers or on induction cookware.

Immediately discontinue use of the battery if, while using, charging or storing the battery, the battery emits an unusual smell, feels hot, changes color or shape, or appears abnormal in any other way.

Do not replace the battery pack when the device is turned on.

Do not remove or damage the battery pack's label.

Do not use the battery pack if it is damaged in any part.

Battery pack usage by children should be supervised.

As with other types of batteries, Lithium-Ion (LI) batteries will lose capacity over time. Capacity deterioration is noticeable after one year of service whether the battery is in use or not. It is difficult to precisely predict the finite life of a LI battery, but cell manufacturers rate them at 500 charge cycles. In other words, the batteries should be expected to take 500 full discharge / charge cycles before needing replacement. This number is higher if partial discharging / recharging is adhered to rather than full / deep discharging,

The typical manufacturer advertised useful life of LI batteries is one to three years, depending on usage and number of charges, etc., after which they should be removed from service, especially in mission critical applications. Do not continue to use a battery that is showing excessive loss of capacity, it should be properly recycled / disposed of and replaced. For most applications, batteries should be replaced after one year of service to maintain customer satisfaction and minimize safety concerns.

Collect and recycle waste batteries separately from the device in compliance with European Directive 2006/66/EC, 2002/95/EC, 2002/96/EC and subsequent modifications, US and China regulatory and others laws and regulations about the environment.

Programming the Reader

Configuration Methods

Programming Barcodes

The reader is factory-configured with a standard set of default features. After scanning the interface barcode, you can select other options and customize your reader through use of the instructions and programming barcode labels available in the corresponding features section for your interface. Customizable settings for many features are found in "Configuration Using Barcodes" starting on page 37.

Some programming labels, like "Restore Custom Defaults" on page 33, require only the scan of the single label to enact the change. Most, however, require the reader to be placed in Programming Mode prior to scanning them. Scan an ENTER/EXIT barcode once to enter Programming Mode. Once the reader is in Programming Mode, scan a number of parameter settings before scanning the ENTER/EXIT barcode a second time, which will then accept your changes, exit Programming Mode and return the reader to normal operation.

There are some exceptions to the typical programming sequence described above. Please read the description and setting instructions carefully when configuring each programmable feature.

Datalogic Aladdin™

Datalogic Aladdin ^™ is a multi-platform utility program providing a quick and user-friendly configuration method via the RS-232/USB-COM interface. Aladdin is available on the CD-ROM provided with your product, and also from the Datalogic website. Aladdin allows you to program the reader by selecting configuration commands through a user-friendly graphical interface running on a PC. These commands are sent to the reader over the selected communication interface, or they can be printed as barcodes to be scanned.

Aladdin also provides the ability to perform a software upgrade for the connected device (see the Datalogic Aladdin ^TM Help On-Line for more details).

Chapter 2 Setup

Unpacking

Check carefully to ensure the reader and any accessories ordered are present and undamaged. If any damage occurred during shipment, contact Datalogic Technical Support. Information is shown on page 10.

KEEP THE PACKAGING. Should the unit ever require service, it should be returned in its original shipping container.

Setting Up the Reader

Depending on whether you are using a Corded or Mobile version of the Gryphon, follow the steps provided in this section to connect and get your reader up and communicating with its host.

1. Begin by Installing the Interface Cable (Corded) or Connecting the Base Station (Mobile)
2. Go to Interface Selection and set the desired interface.
3. Configure Interface Settings (only if not using factory settings for that interface)
4. Go to Configuring Other Features (if modifications are needed from factory settings)

Installing the Interface Cable

For Corded versions, connect the reader cable by inserting the cable into the handle as shown in Figure 3. To remove it, insert a paper clip into the release aperture, then unplug the cable.

Figure 3. Connect/disconnect the cable

Technical illustration of a handheld device with two views showing internal components and directional arrows (no text or symbols)

RS-232 Serial Connection

Turn off power to the terminal/PC and connect the reader to the terminal/PC serial port via the RS-232 cable as shown in Figure 4. If the terminal will not support POT (Power Off the Terminal) to supply reader power, use the approved power supply (AC Adapter). Plug the AC Adapter barrel connector into the socket on the RS-232 cable connector and the AC Adapter plug into a standard power outlet.

USB Keyboard Wedge or... +3M or...

Specific cables are required for connection to different hosts. The connectors illustrated above are examples only. Actual connectors may vary from those illustrated, but the steps to connect the reader remain the same.

RF Models

The power supply connects directly to the base (not on the cable's jack) for all configurations. For all interfaces (except RS-232) a power supply is recommended but not necessary, because the base can be powered from the Host. When the base is powered from the Host, select a slow charge rate.

Configuring the Base Station

The base charger/station may be configured in desk application to hold the reader in two different positions, either a horizontal or standing position, in order to provide the most comfortable use depending on needs.

Standing

Close-up of a black automotive headset with blue accent and control buttons (no text or symbols visible)

Horizontal

Changing the Base Station Position

The base station is configured by installing one of two sets of mechanical parts that come with the cordless kit. The default mounts (shown below) provide three options: vertical (wall) mounting, standing (45°), or horizontal mounting with a higher mechanical retention of the scanner. Use the other mounts only for horizontal mounting, with lower retention of the scanner. The different parts may be interchanged to customize retention preferences.

A tool such as a rigid pen or a flat screwdriver can be used to change the mounts. Do not allow it to touch the contacts.

1. Insert the appropriate parts for the desired base station position, as shown below.

Standing, Horizontal or Vertical Horizontal Only

1. Using your thumbs, push open the plastic tabs on the bottom of the base to free the wing holders.

Connecting the Base Station

Figure 8 shows how to connect the Base Station to a terminal, PC or other host device. Turn off the host before connection and consult the manual for that equipment (if necessary) before proceeding. Connect the interface cable before applying power to the Base Station.

Gryphon Mobile can also be Powered by the Terminal. The external power supply is recommended but not necessary. When powered by the Terminal, the battery charger is automatically set as Slow charge.

Base Station Connection and Routing: Fully insert the Power Cable and Interface (I/F) Cable connectors into their respective ports in the underside of the Base Station (see Figure 8). Then connect to an AC Adapter, and plug the AC power cord into the (wall) outlet.

Figure 8. Connecting the Base Station

I/F Cable AC/DC Adapter Wall plug Connector DC Power Cord Base Station

Securing the DC Power Cord (Optional)

The DC power cord for the adapter can be secured to the bottom of the base in order to maximize the mechanical retention of the cable itself. The routing of the power cord can be changed to accommodate the base station positioning: horizontal, stand or wall mounting. The cables can be looped around to the front of the Base Station, or fed directly out the back of the Base Station, as shown in Figure 9 on page 23.

Linking the Reader to a Base Station

RF Devices

For RF devices, before configuring the interface it is necessary to link the handheld with the base. To link the handheld and the base, press the trigger to wake it and place it on the base. If the reader was previously linked to another base, you must first scan the Unlink action command before re-linking to the new base.

Unlink

BT Models only

Remember: The mandatory condition for establishing a new linking between a BT handheld and a BT base is that the handheld is unlinked and they share the same security configuration. A successful link is indicated by three ascending tones from the reader. A high-low-high-low tone indicates the link attempt was unsuccessful. A single green LED flash after this tone indicates no Base Station was discovered. Two green LED flashes after this tone indicates that more than one Base Station was discovered and the reader did not link. Three LED flashes after this tone indicate a security error.

Linking a BT Reader to a PC

The reader can optionally be linked to a Bluetooth-enabled PC with the serial port profile, in either server mode or client mode.

Linking to a PC in Server Mode (BT Slave Mode)

To link a BT reader in server mode to a Bluetooth-enabled PC, follow these steps:

1. Install any drivers provided with the Bluetooth adapter.
2. Scan the Link to a PC in Server Mode barcode to make the scanner visible to the host computer..

Link to a PC in Server Mode

1. Use the host computer's Bluetooth manager to "Discover new devices" and select "Data-logic Scanner." If you receive an error message, it may be necessary to disable security on the device.
2. Select "connect" on the PC to link the reader to the PC. Use an RS-232 terminal program to see incoming data on the port designated by the computer's Bluetooth manager.

Linking to a PC in Client Mode (BT Master Mode)

The reader can optionally be linked in client mode to a Bluetooth-enabled PC with the serial port profile. To do this, follow these steps:

1. Ensure the PC or terminal can network with B bluetooth devices and that it is powered on.
2. Ensure that a COM port is assigned under Services within the bluetooth setup menu.
3. Create a Link label that contains the address of the PC bluetooth adapter.

NOTE

The bluetooth address can be found under "Properties" within in the bluetooth setup menu.

The link label is a Code 128 function 3 label with the following format: LnkB<12 character bluetooth address>

1. Scan the link label you created in step 3.

Many stand alone connections can operate in the same physical area without interference, provided all readers and cradles in the system have different addresses.

Interface Selection

Upon completing the physical connection between the reader and its host, proceed to Table 1 starting on page 29 to select the interface type the reader is connected to (for example: RS-232, Keyboard Wedge, USB, etc.). Scan the appropriate barcode in that section to configure your system's correct interface type.

Each reader model will support one of the following sets of host interfaces:

General Purpose Models Retail Point of Sale Models

• R S - 2 3 2

• R S - 2 3 2

- RS-232 OPOS

- RS-232 OPOS

- USB

USB

- Keyboard Wedge

- IBM 46XX

- Wand Emulation

Setting the Interface

Scan the programming barcode from this section which selects the appropriate interface type matching the system the reader will be connected to. Next, proceed to the corresponding section in this manual (also listed in Table 1 starting on page 29) to configure any desired settings and features associated with that interface.

Unlike some programming features and options, interface selections require that you scan only one programming barcode label. DO NOT scan an ENTER/EXIT barcode prior to scanning an interface selection barcode.

Some interfaces require the scanner to start in the disabled state when powered up. If additional scanner configuration is desired while in this state, pull the trigger and hold it for five seconds. The scanner will change to a state that allows programming with barcodes.

RS-232 Parameters

RS-232 Only

Baud Rate

Baud rate is the number of bits of data transmitted per second. Set the reader's baud rate to match the baud rate setting of the host device. With an improper baud rate setting, data may not reach the host correctly.

Stop Bits

The stop bit(s) at the end of each transmitted character marks the end of transmission of one character and prepares the receiving device for the next character in the serial data stream. The number of stop bits selected (one or two) depends on the number the receiving terminal is programmed to accommodate. Set the number of stop bits to match host device requirements.

Parity

This feature specifies parity required for sending and receiving data. A parity check bit is the most significant bit of each ASCII coded character. Select the parity type according to host device requirements.

• Select None when no parity bit is required.
• Select Odd parity and the parity bit value is set to 0 or 1, based on data, to ensure that an odd number of 1 bits are contained in the coded character.
• Select Even parity and the parity bit value is set to 0 or 1, based on data, to ensure that an even number of 1 bits are contained in the coded character.

Handshaking Control

The data interface consists of an RS-232 port designed to operate either with or without the hardware handshaking lines, Request to Send (RTS), and Clear to Send (CTS). Handshaking Control includes the following options:

• RTS — RTS is asserted during transmissions. CTS is ignored.

• RTS/CTS — RTS is asserted during transmissions. CTS gates transmissions.

• RTS/XON/XOFF — RTS is asserted during transmissions. CTS is ignored. XON and XOFF gate transmissions.

• RTS On/CTS — RTS is always asserted. CTS gates transmissions.

RTS/CTS Scan Control — RTS is asserted during transmissions. CTS gates transmissions and controls enable and disable state of scanner.

RS-232/USB COM Parameters

Intercharacter Delay

This parameter specifies the intercharacter delay between the end of one character and the beginning of the next. The delay can be set within a range of zero (0) to 990 milliseconds in 10ms increments. A setting of zero specifies no delay.

To set the delay:

1. Determine the desired setting in milliseconds.
2. Divide the desired setting by 10 (setting is in 10ms increments). Pad the result with leading zeroes to yield two digits. For example: 0 = 00, 5 = 05, 20 = 20, etc.
3. Scan the ENTER/EXIT PROGRAMMING MODE barcode to enter Programming Mode.
4. Go to page 47 and scan the barcode: SELECT INTERCHARACTER DELAY SETTING.
5. Scan the appropriate two digits from the keypad in Appendix D Keypad, that represent the duration which was determined in the steps above. You will hear a two-beep indication after the last character.

If you make a mistake before the last character, scan the CANCEL barcode to abort and not save the entry string. You can then start again at the beginning.

1. Scan the ENTER/EXIT PROGRAMMING MODE barcode to exit.

This completes the procedure. See Table 28 for some examples of how to set this feature.

5 Scan Two Characters From Appendix D Keypad	'0' and '5'	'5' and '0'	'6' and '0'	'8' and '5'
6 Scan ENTER/EXIT PROGRAMMING MODE

ACK NAK Options

This enables/disables the ability of the reader to support the RS-232 ACK/NAK protocol. When configured, the reader and/or host sends an “ACK” when it receives data properly, and sends “NAK” when the data is in error.

Options are:

• D i s a b l e
- Enable for label transmission — The reader expects an ACK/NAK response from the host when a label is sent.
- Enable for host-command acknowledge — The reader will respond with ACK/NAK when the host sends a command.
- Enable for label transmission and host-command acknowledge

ACK Character

This setting specifies an ASCII character or hex value to be used as the ACK character. ASCII characters or any hex value from 0 to 0xFF can be selected.

Setting to previously defined characters such as XON, XOFF, or host mands conflicts with normal operation of these characters. 8-bit data is not recognized when the option Data Bitshas been set as 7 Data Bits.

1. Determine the desired character or value.
2. Use the ASCII Chart on the inside back cover of this manual to find the hex equivalent for the desired character/value.
3. Go to page 50 and scan ENTER/EXIT PROGRAMMING MODE to enter Programming Mode.
4. Scan the barcode: SELECT ACK CHARACTER SETTING.
5. Scan the appropriate two alpha-numeric characters from the keypad in Appendix D Keypad, that represent the desired character/value in step 1 above. The second character will cause a two-beep indication.

Setting to previously defined characters such as XON, XOFF, or host commands conflicts with normal operation of these characters. 8-bit data is not recognized when the option Data Bits has been set as 7 Data Bits.

To set this feature:

1. Determine the desired character or value.
2. Use the ASCII Chart on the inside back cover of this manual to find the hex equivalent for the desired character/value.
3. Go to page 50 and scan the ENTER/EXIT PROGRAMMING MODE barcode to enter Programming Mode.
4. Scan the barcode: SELECT NAK CHARACTER SETTING.
5. Scan the appropriate two alpha-numeric characters from the keypad in Appendix D Keypad, that represent the desired character/value in step 1 above. The second character will cause a two-beep indication.
6. Scan the ENTER/EXIT PROGRAMMING MODE barcode to exit Programming Mode.

This completes the procedure. See Table 30 for some examples of how to set this feature.

ACK NAK Timeout Value

This option specifies the amount of time the reader waits for an ACK character from the host following label transmission. The selectable timeout range is 200 milliseconds to 15,000ms (15 seconds) in 200ms increments. A selection of 0 disables the timeout.

To set this value:

1. Determine the desired setting in milliseconds.

2. Divide the desired setting by 200 (setting is in 200ms increments). Pad the result with leading zeroes to yield two digits. For example: 0 = 00, 5 = 05, 20 = 20, etc.

3. Go to page 51 and scan the ENTER/EXIT PROGRAMMING MODE barcode to enter Programming Mode.
4. Scan the barcode: SELECT ACK NAK TIMEOUT VALUE SETTING.
5. Scan the appropriate two digits from the keypad in Appendix D Keypad, that represent the duration which was determined in the steps above. You will hear a two-beep indication after the last character.

If you make a mistake before the last character, scan the CANCEL barcode to abort and not save the entry string. You can then start again at the beginning.

Symbologies

Decoding Level

Decoding Levels are used to configure a barcode symbology decoder to be very aggressive to very conservative depending on a particular customer's needs.

• Level 1 results in a very conservative decoder at the expense of not being able to read poorly printed or damaged labels.
• Level 5 results in a very aggressive decoder. This aggressive behavior allows decoding of poorly printed and damaged labels at the expense of increasing the likelihood of decoding errors.
• Level 3, which is the default setting, allows the majority of product labels to be decoded.

There are many factors that determine when to change the decoding level for a particular symbology. These factors include spots, voids, non-uniform bar/space widths, damaged labels, etc. that may be experienced in some barcode labels. If there are many hard to read or damaged labels that cannot be decoded using a conservative setting, increase the decoding level to be more aggressive. If the majority of labels are very good quality labels, or there is a need to decrease the possibility of a decoder error, lower the decoding level to a more conservative level.

Set Length

Length Control allows you to select either variable length decoding or fixed length decoding for the specified symbology.

Variable Length. For variable length decoding, a minimum and maximum length may be set.

Fixed Length. For fixed length decoding, two different lengths may be set.

Set Length 1

This feature specifies one of the barcode lengths for Length Control. Length 1 is the minimum label length if in Variable Length Mode, or the first fixed length if in Fixed Length Mode. Length includes the barcode's data characters only.

The number of characters that can be set varies, depending on the symbology. Reference the page for your selected symbology to see specific variables.

1. Determine the desired character length (varies depending on symbology). Pad the number with leading zeroes to yield two digits. For example: 0 = 00, 5 = 05, 20 = 20, etc.
2. Go to the Set Length page for your selected symbology and scan the ENTER/EXIT PROGRAMMING MODE barcode to enter Programming Mode.
3. Scan the barcode to SELECT LENGTH 1 SET TING for your selected symbology.
4. Scan the appropriate two digits from the keypad in Appendix D Keypad, that represent the length setting which was determined in the steps above. You will hear a two-beep indication after the last character.

If you make a mistake before the last character, scan the CANCEL barcode to abort and not save the entry string. You can then start again at the beginning.

1. Scan the ENTER/EXIT PROGRAMMING MODE barcode to exit Prog Mode.

Set Length 2

This feature allows you to set one of the barcode lengths for the specified symbology. Length 2 is the maximum label length if in Variable Length Mode, or the second fixed length if in Fixed Length Mode. See the page for the specific symbology for parameters.

The length that can be set varies depending on the symbology. A setting of 0 specifies to ignore this length (only one fixed length).

Follow these instructions to set this feature:

1. Determine the desired character length (from 1 to 50 — or 0 to ignore this length). Pad the number with leading zeroes to yield two digits. For example: 0 = 00, 5 = 05, 20 = 20, etc.
2. Go to the Set Length page for your selected symbology and scan the ENTER/EXIT PROGRAMMING MODE barcode to enter Programming Mode.
3. Scan the barcode to SELECT LENGTH 2 SET TING for your selected symbology.
4. Scan the appropriate two digits from the keypad in Appendix D Keypad that represent the length setting which was determined in the steps above. You will hear a two-beep indication after the last character.

If you make a mistake, before the last character scan the CANCEL barcode to abort and not save the entry string. You can then start again at the beginning.

1. Scan the ENTER/EXIT PROGRAMMING MODE barcode to exit Programming Mode.

This completes the procedure.

Data Editing

CAUTION

It is not recommended to use these features with IBM interfaces.

When a barcode is scanned, additional information can be sent to the host computer along with the barcode data. This combination of barcode data and supplementary user-defined data is called a “message string.” The Data Editing features can be used to build specific user-defined data into a message string.

There are several types of selectable data characters that can be sent before and after scanned data. You can specify if they should be sent with all symbologies, or only with specific symbologies. Figure 16 shows the available elements you can add to a message string:

Figure 16. Breakdown of a Message String

graph TD
    A["Label ID Transmission: Enable this option to transmit the Label ID you configure for the scanned symbology."] --> B["OR..."]
    C["Prefix"] --> D["Label ID"]
    E["AIM ID"] --> F["Bar Code Data"]
    G["Label ID"] --> H["Suffix"]
    I["AIM ID: This function is used to identify and display the common label identifier for its symbology. When enabled, this ID code will be transmitted before the scanned bar code data."] --> J["00 - 20 Characters (ASCII)"]

Additional advanced editing is available. See the Advanced formatting features in the Datalogic Aladdin configuration software, or contact Technical Support (described on page 10 for more information.

Please Keep In Mind...

- Modifying a message string is not a mandatory requirement. Data editing is a sophisticated feature allowing highly customizable output for advanced users. Factory default settings for data editing is typically set to NONE.

- A prefix or suffix may be applied only to a specified symbology (reference Code Selection, starting on page 107) or across all symbologies (set via the Global features in this chapter).

- You can add any character from the ASCII Chart (from 00-FF) on the inside back cover of this manual as a prefix, suffix or Label ID.

- Enter prefixes and suffixes in the order in which you want them to appear on the output.

Global Prefix/Suffix

Up to 20 ASCII characters may be added as a prefix (in a position before the barcode data) and/or as a suffix (in a position following the barcode data) as indicated in Figure 17.

Figure 17. Prefix and Suffix Positions

graph TD
    A["OR..."] --> B["Label ID"]

    D --> E["Suffix"]
    F["Prefix"] --> G["00 - 20 Characters (ASCII)"]
    H["AND OR"] --> I["00 - 20 Characters (ASCII)"]

Example: Setting a Prefix

In this example, we'll set a prefix for all symbologies.

1. Determine which ASCII character(s) are to be added to scanned barcode data. In this example, we'll add a dollar sign (\$') as a prefix.
2. Go to page 78 and scan the ENTER/EXIT PROGRAMMING MODE barcode.
3. Scan the SET GLOBAL PREFIX barcode.
4. Reference the ASCII Chart on the inside back cover of this manual to find the hex value assigned to the desired character. The corresponding hex number for the '\$' character is 24. To enter this selection code, scan the '2' and '4' barcodes from Appendix D Keypad.

If you make a mistake before the last character, scan the CANCEL barcode to abort and not save the entry string. You can then start again at the beginning.

1. If less than the expected string of 20 characters are selected, scan the ENTER/EXIT barcode to terminate the string.
2. Scan the ENTER/EXIT barcode once again to exit Programming Mode.
3. The resulting message string would appear as follows:

Scanned barcode data:12345

Resulting message string output: \$12345

Global AIM ID

This feature enables/disables addition of AIM IDs for all symbology types.

AIM label identifiers (as opposed to custom characters you select yourself as with label identifiers) can be included with scanned barcode data. AIM label identifiers consist of three characters as follows:

• A close brace character (ASCII ']), followed by...
  • A code character (see the table below), followed by...
• A modifier character (the modifier character is symbol dependent).

Label ID

A Label ID is a customizable code of up to three ASCII characters (each can be one of hex 0x01-0xFF), used to identify a barcode (symbology) type. It can be appended previous to or following the transmitted barcode data depending upon how this option is enabled. This feature provides options for configuring custom Label IDs as a pre-loaded set (see "Label ID: Pre-loaded Sets" below) or individually per symbology (see "Label ID: Set Individually Per Symbology" on page 303). If you wish to program the reader to always include an industry standard label identifier for ALL symbology types, see "Global AIM ID" on page 79.

Label ID: Pre-loaded Sets

The reader supports two pre-loaded sets of Label IDs. Table 38 shows the USA and the EU sets.

CAUTION

When changing from one Label ID set to another, all other reader configuration settings, including the host interface type, will be erased and set to the standard factory defaults. Any custom configuration or custom defaults will be lost.

Label ID: Set Individually Per Symbology

To configure a Label ID individually for a single symbology:

1. Go to page 81 and scan the ENTER/EXIT barcode.
2. Select Label ID position as either BEFORE (Enable as Prefix) or AFTER (Enable as suffix) by scanning the appropriate barcode in the section "Label ID Control" on page 82. Reference Figure 19 for Label ID positioning options if multiple identification features are enabled.
3. Scan a barcode to select the symbology for which you wish to configure a custom Label ID from the section "Label ID Symbology Selection" on page 83.
4. Determine the desired character(s) (you may choose up to three) which will represent the Label ID for the selected symbology.
5. Turn to the ASCII Chart on the inside back cover of this manual and find the equivalent hex digits associated with your choice of Label ID. For example, if you wish to select an equal sign (=) as a Label ID, the chart indicates its associated hex characters as 3D. Turn to Keypad, starting on page 345 and scan the barcodes representing the hex characters determined. For the example given, the characters '3' and 'D' would be scanned. More examples of Label ID settings are provided in Table 39.

If you make a mistake before the last character, scan the CANCEL barcode to abort and not save the entry string. You can then start again at the beginning.

1. Scan the ENTER/EXIT barcode to exit Label ID entry.
2. Scan the ENTER/EXIT barcode once again to exit Programming Mode.

This completes the steps to configure a Label ID for a given symbology.

Character Conversion

Character conversion is an eight byte configuration item. The eight bytes are 4 character pairs represented in hexadecimal ASCII values. The first character in the pair is the character that will be converted. The second character in the pair is the character to convert to. If the character to convert in a pair is FF, then no conversion is done.

For example, if you have the character conversion configuration item set to the following: 41423132FFFFFFF

The first pair is 4142 or AB (41 hex is an ASCII capital A, 42 hex is an ASCII capital B) and the second pair is 3132 or 12 (31 hex is an ASCII 1, 32 is an ASCII 2). The other two pairs are FFFF and FFFF.

With the label, AB12BA21, it would look as follows after the character conversion: BB22BB22.

The A characters were converted to B characters and the 1 characters were converted to 2 characters. Nothing is done with the last two character pairs, since they are all FF.

To set Character Conversion:

1. Go to page 90 and scan the ENTER/EXIT barcode.
2. Scan the "Configure Character Conversion" barcode.
3. Determine the desired string. Sixteen positions must be determined as in the above example. Next, turn to the ASCII Chart on the inside back cover of this manual and find the equivalent hex digits needed to fulfill the string.
4. Turn to Appendix D Keypad and scan the barcodes representing the hex characters determined in the previous step.
5. Scan the ENTER/EXIT barcode to exit Programming Mode.

If less than the expected string of 16 characters are selected, scan the ENTER/EXIT barcode twice to accept the selections and exit Programming Mode.

Reading Parameters

Label Gone Timeout

This feature sets the time after the last label segment is seen before the reader prepares for a new label. The timeout can be set within a range of 10 milliseconds to 2,550 milliseconds (2.55 seconds) in 10ms increments. Label Gone Timeout does not apply to scan modes that require a trigger pull for each label that is read

Follow these instructions to set this feature:

1. Determine the desired setting in milliseconds.
2. Divide the desired setting by 10 (setting is in 10ms increments). Pad the result with leading zeroes to yield three digits. For example: 0 = 000, 5 = 005, 20 = 020, etc.

3. Go to page 93 and scan the ENTER/EXIT PROGRAMMING MODE barcode to enter Programming Mode.

4. Scan the barcode: SELECT LABEL GONE TIMEOUT SETTING.

5. Scan the appropriate three alpha-numeric characters from the keypad in Appendix D Keypad representing the duration which was determined in the steps above. You will hear a two-beep indication after the last character.

If you make a mistake before the last character, scan the CANCEL barcode to abort and not save the entry string. You can then start again at the beginning.

1. Scan the ENTER/EXIT PROGRAMMING MODE barcode to exit Programming Mode.

This completes the procedure. See Table 40 for some examples of how to set this feature.

Good Read LED Duration

This feature specifies the amount of time that the Good Read LED remains on following a good read. The good read LED on time can be set within a range of 10 milliseconds to 2,550 milliseconds (0.001 to 2.55 seconds) in 100ms increments.

Follow these instructions to set this feature:

1. Determine the desired setting in milliseconds. A setting of 0 means that the good read LED stays on until the next time the trigger is pulled.
2. Divide the desired setting by 10 (setting is in 100ms increments). Pad the result with leading zeroes to yield three digits. For example: 0 = 000, 5 = 000, 20 = 020, etc.
3. Go to page 100 and scan the ENTER/EXIT PROGRAMMING MODE barcode to enter Programming Mode.
4. Scan the barcode: SELECT GOOD READ LED DURATION SETTING.

Scanning Features

Scan Mode

This mode is associated with typical handheld reader operation. Selects the scan operating mode for the reader. The following selections are valid for all models:

Trigger Single. When the trigger is pulled, scanning is activated until one of the following occurs:

• Scanning Active Time has elapsed
• a label has been read
• the trigger is released

Trigger Hold Multiple. When the trigger is pulled, scanning starts and the product scans until the trigger is released or Scanning Active Time has elapsed. Reading a label does not disable scanning. Double Read Timeout prevents undesired multiple reads of the same label while in this mode.

Trigger Pulse Multiple. When the trigger is pulled, continuous scanning is activated until Scanning Active Time has elapsed or the trigger has been released and pulled again. Double Read Timeout prevents undesired multiple reads of the same label while in this mode.

Flashing. The reader flashes ^1 on and off regardless of the trigger status. Flash rate is controlled by Flash On Time and Flash Off Time. When Flash is ON the imager reads continuously; when Flash is OFF scanning is deactivated.

Flashing is the recommended scan mode for Gryphon L hands-free (stand mode) of operation

Always On. No trigger pull is required to read a barcode. Scanning is continually on. If the trigger is pulled, the reader acts as if it is in Trigger Single Mode. Double Read Timeout prevents undesired multiple reads of the same label while in this mode.

The following two features are valid only for the Gryphon I (desk and mobile), but not the Gryphon Laser model. See "Laser Features" on page 281 for specific parameters for the Laser model.

Stand Mode. No trigger pull is required to read a barcode. Scanning is turned on automatically when an item is placed in the reader's field of view. If the trigger is pulled, the reader acts as if it in single read mode. Double Read Timeout prevents undesired multiple reads while in this mode.

Trigger Object Sense. This mode is similar to Stand Mode, except that a trigger pull is required to activate the decoder.

Scanning Active Time

This setting specifies the amount of time that the reader stays in scan ON state once the state is entered. The range for this setting is from 1 to 255 seconds in 1-second increments.

Follow these instructions to set this feature:

1. Determine the desired setting.
2. Pad the result with leading zeroes to yield three digits. For example: 0 = 000, 5 = 005, 20 = 020, etc.
3. Go to page 104 and scan the ENTER/EXIT PROGRAMMING MODE barcode to enter Programming Mode.
4. Scan the barcode: SELECT SCANNING ACTIVE TIME SETTING.
5. Scan the appropriate three digits from the keypad in Appendix D Keypad, that represent the duration which was determined in the steps above. You will hear a two-beep indication after the last character.

If you make a mistake before the last character, scan the CANCEL barcode to abort and not save the entry string. You can then start again at the beginning.

Display Settings

Display Mode

The user can control the reader display behavior according to the following selections:

Local Echo mode: When a barcode is read with the reader:

• The code is sent to the Host.
• The reader display is cleared.
- The code is also sent to the reader display (Local Echo).
- The cursor is positioned after the last printed character on the reader display.

Normal mode: When a barcode is read with the reader:

• The code is sent to the Host.
- The reader display is not cleared. Therefore if any previous data was displayed on the reader screen it remains.
- There is no Local Echo to the reader display.

Clear Display After Decode mode: When a barcode is read with the reader:

• The code is sent to the Host.
- The reader display is cleared. Therefore if any previous data was displayed on the reader screen it is cancelled and the screen remains blank.
- There is no Local Echo of the code to the reader display.

Host messages sent to the reader are always written to the reader display.

RF Features

Configuration Update

Automatic Configuration Update

When this feature is enabled, the base station and reader will keep their configurations synchronized. If a reader's configuration is altered by reading programming labels, this change is automatically transferred and updated in a linked base station. Likewise, if the base station's configuration is changed using Aladdin or by host commands, then the reader's configuration will automatically be updated if this feature is enabled.

RF Address Stamping

Source Radio Address Delimiter Character

This option specifies the delimiter character to be placed between the label data and radio address when address stamping is enabled.

This feature only applies if "Source Radio Address Transmission" on page 269 is enabled.

Follow these instructions to select the delimiter character:

1. Determine the desired character, then find its hexadecimal equivalent on the ASCII Chart on the inside back cover. A setting of 00 specifies no delimiter character.
2. Go to page 269 and scan the ENTER/EXIT PROGRAMMING MODE barcode to enter Programming Mode.
3. Scan the barcode: SET SOURCE RADIO ADDRESS DELIMITER CHARACTER.
4. Scan the appropriate two digits from the keypad in Appendix D Keypad, that represent the hexadecimal characters which were determined in the steps above. You will hear a two-beep indication after the last character.

If you make a mistake before the last character, scan the CANCEL barcode to abort and not save the entry string. You can then start again at the beginning.

1. Scan the ENTER/EXIT PROGRAMMING MODE barcode to exit Programming Mode.

This completes the procedure. See Table 45 for some examples of how to set this feature.

BT-Only Features

BT Pin Code

This option specifies the 4-character pin code to be used for authentication of the BT link. "BT Security Mode" on page 277 must first be enabled to require the pin code.

To set the pin code:

1. Determine the desired character s. For example, D254.

2. Convert the characters to hexadecimal using the ASCII Chart on the inside back cover of this manual. In the case of the example, the hexadecimal equivalents would be: D = 0x44, 2 = 0x32, 5 = 0x35, and 4 = 0x34

3. Go to page 278 and scan the ENTER/EXIT PROGRAMMING MODE barcode to enter Programming Mode.

4. Scan the barcode: SELECT BT PIN CODE.

5. Scan the appropriate alpha-numeric characters from the keypad in Appendix D Keypad, representing the hexadecimal entries which was determined in the steps above. You will hear a two-beep indication after the last character.

If you make a mistake before the last character, scan the CANCEL barcode to abort and not save the entry string. You can then start again at the beginning.

1. Scan the ENTER/EXIT PROGRAMMING MODE barcode to exit Programming Mode.

Changing the pin code setting will unlink the devices. If the Automatic Configuration Update is set to the default enabled setting, the devices must only be relinked. If the Automatic Configuration Update is set to the disabled setting, the Pin Code setting must also be updated in the Base Station using Aladdin. After the Base Station has been updated, the devices must be relinked.

This completes the procedure. See Table 47 for examples of how to set this feature.

NOTES

Message Formatting

Message Formatting is only available for the Gryphon™ Mobile model.

A message from the Host to the base must follow these rules:

• If Address stamping options or address delimiter are enabled on the base, the Host replay must have address field and delimiter too. Otherwise the message will be ignored. Address delimiter is present only when address stamping is enabled.
• Address stamping is necessary to correctly route the message to the Gryphon I, especially when more than one handheld is linked to the same base. Address stamping could be disabled if the system is in point to point configuration. If address stamping is not enabled, the messages are addressed to the first handheld linked to the base.
• Messages end with "CR" 0x0D ASCII character . The CR character cannot be contained in the middle.
• Messages cannot start with '\$' or # because these are reserved for Service mode command
• Base station can receive host message only if Host Commands Obey/Ignore is set to Ignore.
• Message could be sent to the HH in response to a Label when “Transmit mode” require Ack from Host (see transmit mode parameter) or at any time. When messages are sent not in response to a label must start with DC2 0x12 ASCII character and could be sent in any transmit mode setting.
• Message could be sent to all HH linked to base by using a Multicast message: "00 00 00 00 2A AA"
• In order to receive a message, handhelds must not be in sleep state.

The format of the ACK from Host message (used for transmission mode 02) is:

[Scanner_Addr] [Scanner_Addr_delimiter] MESSAGE

The format of a generic message From Host to HH is:

[Scanner_Addr] [Scanner_Addr_delimiter] DC2 MESSAGE

where DC2 is ASCII 0x12 (^R) character.

[Items in square brackets are optional.]

- If you want to control the Scanner's beeper from the host, you will also probably want to disable the good transmission beep that is emitted when the code is received from the cradle. (See Wireless Beeper Features on page 258).

The message field can store plain text and escape sequences.

• Escape sequences are interpreted as commands.
• Plain text is directly printed on the display. If writing beyond the end of line, the display does not wrap automatically. Extra characters are ignored. Control characters are not interpreted (i.e. LF, FF, etc.).

Cursor Control

ESC[nA Up n rows, no scroll

ESC[nB Down n rows, no scroll

ESC[nC Right n columns

ESC [nD Left n columns

ESC [G] CR

ESC[r;cH Move to row r, column c (ESC[1;1H is the upper left character position of the display)

ESC D Down 1 row, with scroll

ESC E CR and cursor down 1 row with scroll

ESC M Up 1 row and scroll

NOTES:

• Since CR is used as the message terminator, you must use ESC [ G or ESC E to print a CR.
• The cursor row position is not affected by the currently selected font. The display always has 4 rows, so when writing with the large font, actually two rows are written to: the current one and the one below it. You will need two ESC E commands to step from one row to the next when using the large font.
• The cursor column position is affected by the currently selected font. Therefore, column 6 is 36 pixels from the left border only if you last selected the 6x8 font; otherwise it could be 48 or 72 pixels from the left border.

Font Selection

ESC [0 m Normal mode

ESC [7 m] Reverse mode

ESC # 4 Large font: subsequent characters are written on the current row and the row below it using the 12x16 font which allows for two rows of eight characters on the display.

ESC # 5 Normal font: subsequent characters are written using the 6x8 font, which allows for four rows of sixteen characters on the display.

ESC # 7 Medium font: subsequent characters are written using the 8x8 font, which allows for 4 rows of 12 characters on the display.

Clearing Display

ESC [0 K	From cursor position to end of line inclusive
ESC [1 K	From beginning of line to cursor position (not inclusive)
ESC [2 K	Entire line
ESC [0 J	From cursor position to end of display inclusive
ESC [1 J	From beginning of display to cursor position (not inclusive)
ESC [2 J	Entire display; moves cursor to upper left corner on display

LED and Beeper Control

ESC[0 q	Emit short High tone + short delay
ESC[1 q	Emit short Low tone + short delay
ESC[2 q	Emit long Low tone + short delay
ESC[3 q	Emit good read tone
ESC[4 q	Emit bad tx tone
ESC[5 q	Wait 100 ms
ESC[6 q	Turn on the green LED
ESC[7 q	Turn off the green LED
ESC[8 q	Turn on the green spot
ESC[9 q	Turn off the green spot
ESC[0 r	Beep for Find me function (new)
ESC[1 r	Power-off (new)

The LED control escape sequences are intended to activate the LEDs for short periods of time and can be used in combination with the Beeper. The LED and Beeper will be controlled by the system after the entire command sequence is interpreted.

Example:

ESC [ 6 q ESC [ 3 q ESC [ 7 q	Turns on the green LED, emits a good read tone, and turns off the green LED.
ESC [ 6 q ESC [ 5 q ESC [ 7 q	Turns on the green LED for 100 ms and then turns off the green LED.

Messages from Scanner Command Keys

The Gryphon ^™ I series scanners with display have 3 command keys that can each be associated with a character to send to the host.

By pressing the keys on the scanner, the associated character with its relative message formatting is sent to the Host. For example, keys can be used to select items from a menu sent to the scanner display by the application program.

The messages are handled by the system as if they were barcodes, that's why KeyID can have so many fields appended to it. If in your application there is some chance of reading a 1-char barcode identical to KeyID, the way you can distinguish between the two is to enable the Code ID: The KeyID is the only 1-character long EAN 8 code.

The default characters associated with each key (KeyID) are shown in the following table:

(left) Key '<'
(center) Key '='
(right) Key '>'

LED and Beeper Indications

The reader's beeper sounds and its LED illuminates to indicate various functions or errors on the reader. An optional “Green Spot” also performs useful functions. The tables below list these indications. One exception to the behaviors listed in the tables is that the reader's functions are programmable, and may or may not be turned on. For example, certain indications such as the power-up beep can be disabled using programming barcode labels.

Table 50. LED and Beeper Indications

INDICATION DESCRIPTION LED BEEPER
Power-up Beep The reader is in the process of power-ing-up.			Reader beeps four times at highest frequency and volume upon power-up.
Good Read Beep A label has been successfully scanned by the reader.		LED behavior for this indication is configurable via the feature "Good Read: When to Indicate"	The reader will beep once at current frequency, volume, mono/bi-tonal setting and duration upon a successful label scan.
ROM Failure There is an error in the reader's software/programming		Flashes	Reader sounds one error beep at highest volume.
Limited Scanning Label Read	Indicates that a host connection is not established when the IBM or USB interface is enabled.	N/A	Reader 'chirps' six times at the highest frequency and current volume.
Reader Active Mode	The reader is active and ready to scan.	The LED is lit steadilya	N/A
Reader Disabled	The reader has been disabled by the host.	The LED blinks continuously	N/A
Green Spot is on continuously	While in Stand Mode or Trigger Stand Mode the green spot shall be on while in stand watch state.	N/A N/A
Green Spota flashes momentarily	Upon successful read of a label, the software shall turn the green spot on for the time specified by the configured value.	N/A N/A

a. Except when in sleep mode or when a Good Read LED Duration other than 00 is selected

Table 51. Programming Mode Indications

Programming Mode - The following indications ONLY occur when the reader is in Programming Mode.
Label Programming Mode Entry	A valid programming label has been scanned.	LED blinks continuously	Reader sounds four low frequency beeps.
Label Programming Mode Rejection of Label	A label has been rejected.	N/A	Reader sounds three times at lowest frequency & current volume.
Label Programming Mode Acceptance of Partial Label	In cases where multiple labels must be scanned to program one feature, this indication acknowledges each portion as it is successfully scanned.	N/A	Reader sounds one short beep at highest frequency & current volume.
Label Programming Mode Acceptance of Programming	Configuration option(s) have been successfully programmed via labels and the reader has exited Programming Mode.	N/A	Reader sounds one high frequency beep and 4 low frequency beeps followed by reset beeps.
Label Programming Mode Cancel Item Entry	Cancel label has been scanned.	N/A	Reader sounds two times at low frequency and current volume.

Error Codes

Upon startup, if the reader sounds a long tone, this means the reader has not passed its automatic Selftest and has entered FRU (Field Replaceable Unit) isolation mode. If the reader is reset, the sequence will be repeated. The following table describes the LED flashes/beep codes associated with an error found.

NUMBER OF LED FLASHES/BEEPS	ERROR CORRECTIVE	ACTION
1 Configuration		Contact Helpdesk for assistance
2 Interface PCB
4 Reader Module
5 Laser Pointer (if so equipped)
6 Digital PCB
14 CPLD/Code Mismatch

Scancode Tables

Control Character Emulation

Control character emulation selects from different scancode tables as listed in this appendix. Each of the control character sets below are detailed by interface type in the tables. These apply to Wedge and USB Keyboard platforms.

Control Character 00. Characters from 00 to 0x1F are sent as control character Ctrl+Keys, special keys are located from 0x80 to 0xA1.

Control Character 01. Characters from 00 to 0x1F are sent as control character Ctrl+Capital Key, special keys are located from 0x80 to 0xA1.

Control Character 02. Special keys are located from 00 to 0x1F and characters from 0x80 to 0xFE are intended as an extended ASCII table (Microsoft Windows Codepage 1252 — See page -356.)

Single Press and Release Keys

In the following tables, Ar↓ means Alt right pressed and Ar↑ means Alt right released and so on. Definitions for other keys are Al (Alt left), Cr (Control Right) Cl (Control Left) Sh (shift). This method can be used for combining Alt, Control or Shift with other keys.

Example: Consider a Control character set to 00. If AltRight+A is required before sending a label to the host, it could be done by setting three Prefix keys in this way: 0x99 0x41 0x9A.

Interface Type PC AT PS/2, USB-Keyboard or USB-Keyboard for APPLE

Table 53. Scancode Set When Control Character is 00 or 01

Extended characters (sky blue) are sent through dedicated keys (when available in the selected country mode) or by using an Alt Mode sequence.
