About the Reader
The Gryphon™ 4400 series represents a premium level in bar code data
collection devices from Datalogic using advanced imaging technology. The
GPS4400 countertop presentation scanner offers hands-free scanning of
small, easily handled items and hand held scanning operation for bulkier
items. The reader’s compact size makes it the ideal solution for space-
constrained environments.
With a precise reading area, it is perfect for hands-free or handheld
scanning and helps reduce accidental misreads of items caused by stray
laser scan lines - improving productivity and customer satisfaction.
Its aggressive imaging performance and intuitive operation reduces user
training and speeds checkout for better customer service.
The GPS4400 2D bar code scanner module features outstanding near-field
reading, a wide angle field-of-view, high motion tolerance, snappy reading,
and also offers excellent performance when decoding poor or damaged bar
codes. As with all Gryphon readers, the GPS4400 reader offers good-read
visual confirmation with Datalogic’s patented ‘Green Spot’ technology as
well as supporting advanced features like image capture.
User comfort is maximized with the bar code scanner’s steady, deep red
illumination light. Easier on the eyes than competitive products with flicker
illumination, the highly visible 4-Dot aimer defines a precise reading zone
and reduces accidental reads. The aimer’s center cross provides a locator
for targeted scanning in a multiple bar code environment.
The GPS4400 omni-directional reading provides snappy decoding
performance on all common 1D and 2D codes as well as postal, stacked and
composite codes like PDF417.
For mobile marketing or ticketing applications, this imager also offers
excellent performance when reading bar codes from mobile devices.The
GPS4400, with area imaging technology, eliminates the need for separate
equipment with signature capture and document scanning capabilities.
The GPS4400 supports several modes that can be used as a trigger. This
module has the ability to automatically sense objects and trigger itself. A
continuous scan mode captures data whenever a bar code passes into its
field-of-view.
The reader can also be triggered remotely through software commands. The
GPS4400 bar code scanner supports an RS-232 serial interface or a USB
(USB-HID or USB COM) interface.
