Connecting the Base Station
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) be-
fore proceeding. Connect the interface cable before applying
power to the Base Station.
Base Station Connection and Routing:
Fully insert the Power Ca-
ble and Interface (I/F) Cable connectors into their respective
ports in the underside of the Base Station. Then connect to an
AC Adapter, and plug the AC power cord into the (wall) out-
let.

Securing the DC Power Cord (Optional)
The DC power cord for the adapter can be secured to the bot-
tom 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 base station positioning: horizontal,
stand or wall mount. 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
The Gryphon GM44XX can also be Powered by the Terminal.
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 external power supply may be recommended for
full recharging capability (see
for more details).
