Connecting the Base Station
Figure 7 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.
The Gryphon GBT4102 can be set up to require a PIN code when connecting to
the host. To connect to a system that uses a custom security PIN, follow the
procedure in "
Connecting the Base when Security Pin is Enabled" on
page 26
. For information on how to configure this feature, see

Mode, starting on page 278
.
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 Sta-
tion (see Figure 7). Then connect to an AC Adapter, and plug the AC power cord
into the (wall) outlet.
Gryphon Mobile can also be Powered by the Terminal. The external power sup-
ply is recommended but not necessary. When powered by the Terminal, the
battery charger is automatically set as Slow charge.
For some specific interfaces or hosts or lengths of cable, the use of an exter-
nal power supply may be recommended for full recharging capability (see
