In addition, “state-of-the-art” optics permit the Gryphon™ to read at superior depths of field (over 30 cm) never reached before by similar products when reading popular codes. In the cordless models, the fast reading cycle is guaranteed by a prompt response from the cradle. Ergonomics and Friendliness The Gryphon™ has been designed keeping in mind user comfort. The handy shape, wide reading angle, light weight and new patented "green spot" for good reading feedback, are well combined features that prevent users from overworking, to make using Gryphon™ easy, intuitive and comfortable in a number of applications. Acknowledgement from the cradle produces additional feedback on the result of transmission. Flexibility and Versatility A large set of configurable parameters allow the user to customise the Gryphon™ for specific needs. Data Formatting, Data Editing, Reverse-Code Reading and Hands-Free Reading with auto-trigger mode are just some of the features available. The four models offered cover the needs of a large number of applications. Mobility and Autonomy The cordless models of the Gryphon™ address the needs of many applications, giving additional value to the product wherever mobility is a must. Free from cable constraint and entanglement, the models are ideal for small warehousing, POS InStore and Cash and Carry applications and more than 25,000 operations are possible per recharging cycle. With multi-point capability the Gryphon M ™ allows you to assign multiple scanners (up to 16) to a single base station, increasing throughput and reduc- ing the cost of additional base stations and host terminals. Broad Range Radio Coverage A two way 433 MHz low power narrow band radio avoids interference and allows an operating range of more than 30 m, covering an area of more than 2500 square meters. STAR-System™ compatibility STAR-System™ provides the most flexible wireless connection between data and business: "RS232 stand-alone" configurations as well as "RS485 network" solutions. It has a wide area coverage, and real-time connection with the user application. In addition, it is a reliable, fast and cost-effective system with minimal installation costs. GRYPHON™ MODELS AND ACCESSORIES Gryphon™ D100 and D200 Models The Gryphon™ D100 and D200 are the two cabled models of the reader series. Created to satisfy the needs of a wide range of applications in retail and office environments, they both read linear codes, while the D200 model can also read PDF 417. Gryphon™ M100 and M200 Models The same set of features are available in the Gryphon™ M100 and M200, two cordless models which add value wherever mobility is at premium. The ergonomically designed cradle functions both as a radio station and a recharge base. Stand, Desk/Wall Holder, Protective case-belt coupler The Gryphon™ stand makes it possible to use the reader in a hand-free mode. The Desk/Wall Holder adds ease of use and flexibility in many environments where workspace is limited. The Protective Case allows to carry the reader on a belt, when Clockwise from left: Gryphon™ Stand, Desk/Wall holder, Protective case, OM - Gryphon™ not in use, and further protect it against drops. GRYPHON™ D100/D200: APPLICATION ENVIRONMENTS DISTRIBUTION AND RETAIL z POS/In-Store z Shop/Small Warehouse Management z Document Handling In typical retail environments such as a supermarket point- of-sale, the Gryphon™ complements flat bed scanners per- fectly, providing support by reading heavy and large items as well as poor quality and damaged labels. It can also be use- ful in all activities that take place on the shop floor (e.g. department store) where incoming goods data logging, inventory management, price verification and document management are common activities. The ergonomic retail stand together with the automatic code detecting function allow hand-free scanning typical of a presentation scanner, in checkout environments where small items must be read frequently. TRANSPORTATION AND LOGISTICS z Document Handling z Front Office Services z Shipping and Receiving Document handling and front desk processing are some of the most common applications in post offices, as shipping and receiving inside warehouses. In these environments, where ergonomics and reading performance are a must, the Gryphon™ series produces highly productive results, espe- cially in sequential operations, thanks to its promptness and flexibility. The new optimized optics provide outstanding reading per- formance, while the hands-free stand allows the operator to better manage documents and small parcels providing ergonomics and a user-friendly working environment. MANUFACTURING z Work in Progress z Quality Control z Tracking The Gryphon™ also provides excellent value for applications in manufacturing environments. There are various processes in the manufacturing environment, typically consisting of assembly line material tracking, inventory management, quality control and work-in-progress. These processes are performed at the highest level of accuracy and speed thanks to the new Gryphon™ reader. Its high mechanical resistance guarantees product duration and investment protection. The good reading “green spot” directly on the bar code also pro- vides the user with clear reading feedback, useful in noisy environments. The Desk and wall holder accessories allow the user to put the reader in a safe place when not in use. GRYPHON™ M100/M200: APPLICATION ENVIRONMENTS DISTRIBUTION AND RETAIL z POS/In-Store z Small Warehouse z Shop Inventory Management z Cash & Carry/DIY Management z Document Handling z Front Office Services z Shipping and Receiving The introduction of instinctive reading distance technology in a cordless scanner permits the Gryphon™ M100 and Gryphon™ M200 to answer the needs of a wide range of applications. Management of traditional shops from receiving to point- of-sale becomes easier with the use of a reader without cable constraints. Merchandise no longer needs to be moved around the store floor during inventory and price checks. Time consuming activities such as reordering and stock replacement recording typically done on paper can now be executed in real time thanks to instant data trans- mission to the information system. In particular point-of-sale environments such as wholesale, cash & carry and DIY stores where goods are usually large and heavy, the items cannot be lifted easily onto flat-bed scanners. In this case, the Gryphon™ M readers are ideal due to their mobility, which lets the operator move around the sales cart. The Gryphon™ M200, which reads linear and stacked codes, provides an additional value in applications where PDF417 codes are used, such as in document handling, shipping and receiving. Both models supply cordless alternatives in many activities where the operator needs flexibility and mobility. In distri- bution environments, the cordless Gryphon™ M readers are very useful in managing damaged and returned item appli- cations, as well as picking operations. TRANSPORTATION & LOGISTICS/MANUFACTURING z Shipping and Receiving z Document Handling z Work in Progress z Quality Control z Tracking In Transportation and Logistics environments, such as on loading docks, where goods shipping and receiving requires freedom from cable constraint, the Gryphon™ M models offer the ideal solution. The Gryphon™ M200 decodes infor- mation contained in stacked codes typically used to store data of an entire pallet of merchandise. Regarding Manufacturing, the cordless Gryphon™ fulfils the needs of new industry standards that recommend the use of linear and PDF417 codes on tracking and shipping labels, as well as guaranteeing safety by eliminating the use of cables.
