Selecting the Interface Type
Quick Reference Guide

Selecting the Interface Type
Upon completing the physical connection between the reader
and its host, proceed directly to Interface Selection (below) for
information and programming for the interface type the read-
er is connected to (for example: RS-232, Keyboard Wedge,
USB, etc.) and scan the appropriate bar code to select your sys-
tem’s correct interface type.
Interface Selection
Each reader version will support one of the following sets of
host interfaces:
General Purpose Versions:
RS-232, RS-232 OPOS, USB, Key-
board Wedge, Wand.
Retail Point of Sale Versions :
RS-232, RS-232 OPOS, USB,
IBM 46XX.
Information and programming options for each interface type
are provided in this section. For defaults and additional infor-
mation associated with each interface, proceed to the corre-
sponding chapter in the Gryphon™ 44XX PRG.
Configuring the Interface
Scan the programming bar code which selects the appropriate
interface type for the system the reader will be connected to.
Unlike some other programming features and options,
interface selections require that you scan only one pro-
gramming bar code label. DO NOT scan an ENTER/EXIT bar
code prior to scanning an interface selection bar code.
Some interfaces require the scanner to start in the dis-
abled state when powered up. If additional scanner con-
figuration is desired while in this state, pull the trigger
and hold for 5 seconds. The scanner will change to a state
that allows programming with bar codes.
