INTRODUCTION

1 INTRODUCTION
Datalogic has moved a step ahead in the concept of “instinctive reading". The new
Gryphon™ BT SH3500 reader series has been developed to provide optimised
reading performance through excellent ergonomic design, a natural instinctive
reading approach and innovative good reading feedback.
The Gryphon™ BT SH3500 (Gryphon™ Bluetooth
®
) reader is a CCD wireless
barcode scanner communicating in the 2.4 GHz ISM band and using the Serial Port
Profile (SPP). Thanks to a Bluetooth
®
device, such as a Bluetooth
®
dongle, the
reader can send data to a remote Host such as a PC, PDA, printer, etc.
The “INSTINCTIVE READING DISTANCE,” a concept introduced by Datalogic a few
years ago based on in-depth ergonomic studies, represents the natural position of
the user while reading a code. The Gryphon™ BT SH3500 series takes this concept
one step further. It allows wireless operations at the desk/POS within a 10 meter
range. The new “blue spot,” (Datalogic patent application) produced by the
Gryphon™ BT SH3500 provides “good reading” feedback directly on the code, where
the user usually tends to be looking. Correct pointing becomes quick and easy
thanks to the sharp and bright illumination line. All these characteristics are coupled
with outstanding performance in terms of reading quickness and decoding capability
thanks to state-of-the-art optics and a decode rate of 270 scans/sec, making the
Gryphon™ BT SH3500 very user friendly, intuitive and fast.
Specially optimised optics allow reading of the most popular standard codes with
superior depths of field from near contact to over 30 cm. High resolution codes,
which can reach 3 mils are also easily read. The Gryphon™ BT SH3500 reader is
paving the road for innovative barcode reading.
The OM-Gryphon™ BT SH3500 cradle is provided in the package to build a Cordless
Reading System for the collection, decoding and transmission of barcoded data. It
can be connected to a Host PC through a USB, RS232 or Wedge emulation cable.
The OM-Gryphon™ BT SH3500 also allows charging the Gryphon™ BT SH3500
batteries.

RADIO CONNECTION
During typical operation a physical radio channel is shared by a group of devices that
are synchronized to a common clock and frequency hopping pattern. One device
provides the synchronization reference and is known as the Master. All other devices
are known as Slaves. A group of devices synchronized in this fashion form a piconet.
Most Bluetooth
®
devices can be both Master or Slave. The Master will be the first unit
to initiate the connection (page procedure).
Some devices can only be Slaves (i.e. printers). They can only wait for a Bluetooth
®
Master device to initiate a connection with them.
Gryphon™ BT SH3500 can be either Master or Slave. As Master it can initiate a
connection with only one Slave device.
The blue LED and / or the beeper always indicate the reader radio connection status
(see also the Reader Status table, at page 62):
• the radio connection is signaled by the blue LED through a single blink at regular
intervals, while if the reader radio is disconnected the LED emits two short blinks
at regular intervals;
• during the initialization procedure, if the radio connection attempt is successful,
the reader emits four ascending tones;
• the radio disconnection is signaled by four descending tones.

4.5 USB INTERFACE CONFIGURATION AND SELECTION
The USB interface is compatible with:
Windows 98 (and later) IBM POS for Windows
Mac OS 8.0 (and later) 4690 Operating System
USB START-UP
As with all USB devices, upon connection, the Host performs several checks by
communicating with the OM-Gryphon™ BT SH3500. Before the OM-Gryphon™ BT
SH3500 is ready, the correct USB driver must be loaded.
For all systems, the correct USB driver for the default USB-KBD interface is included
in the Host Operating System and will either be loaded automatically or will be
suggested by the O.S. and should therefore be selected from the dialog box (the first
time only).
You can now read codes with the associated Gryphon™ BT SH3500 reader. At this
point you can read the USB interface configuration code according to your
application. Load drivers from the O.S. (if requested). When configuring the USB-
COM interface, the relevant files and drivers must be installed from the USB Device
Installation software which can be downloaded from the web site:
http://www.datalogic.com.
The OM-Gryphon™ BT SH3500 is ready.

4.6 CHANGING DEFAULT SETTINGS
Once your reader is setup, you can change the default parameters to meet your
application needs. Refer to the preceding paragraphs for initial configuration in order
to set the default values and select the interface for your application.
In this manual, the configuration parameters are divided into logical groups making it
easy to find the desired function based on its reference group.
The first three groups are for Standard Interface parameter configuration:
•
RS232
•
USB
•
WEDGE
The following parameter groups are common to all interface applications:
DATA FORMAT parameters regard the messages sent to the Host system.
READING PARAMETERS control various operating modes and indicator status
functioning.
CODE SELECTION parameters allow configuration of a personalized mix of codes,
code families and their options.
RADIO PARAMETERS allow configuration of radio control parameters.

5.1 DATA FORMAT
The output message from Gryphon™ BT SH3500 towards the Host uses the
following format:
[Bluetooth
Reader Addr] [Reader Addr Delimiter] [Header]
[Code ID] [Code Length]
CODE
[Terminator]
[Items in square brackets are optional.]
5.2 RADIO PARAMETERS
5.2.1 Radio Protocol Timeout
This parameter sets the valid time to wait before transmission between the
Gryphon™ BT SH3500 reader and the remote Bluetooth
®
device is considered failed.
This parameter should be set taking into consideration the radio traffic (number of
readers in the same area). It can be set between 3 and 19 seconds.
5.2.2 ACK/NACK Protocol and Frame Packing
ACK/NACK Protocol
The transmission protocol takes place between the reader and the Host. The reader
passes its data (code read) to the remote Bluetooth
®
device (Host).
When ACK/NACK is disabled, there is no control from reader to Host transmission,
therefore the reader responds with the good reception tone.

CK
ACK/NACK enabled
When ACK/NACK is enabled, the Host sends an ACK character (06 HEX) in the case
of good reception or the NACK character (15 HEX) requesting re-transmission, in the
case of bad reception. Only after the ACK character is received by Gryphon™ BT
SH3500 does the reader respond with the good reception tone.
If the reader does not receive an ACK or NACK, transmission is ended after the
Radio Protocol Timeout, par. 5.2.1.
Frame Packing
When Frame Packing is disabled, the Output Message from the Gryphon™ BT
SH3500 reader is sent to the Host as is, see par. 5.1.
If instead, Frame Packing is enabled, the Output Message is "packed" into a Frame
with the following format:
STX Length Control Counter Output Message CRC-16 CR
where:
STX = Frame Start character (02 Hex).
Length = 2 bytes; indicates frame length of the remaining fields (including CR).
Control = 1 byte; indicates message fragmentation. For further details see the DL
Security Protocol documentation on the CD-ROM.
Counter = a loop counter for the Output Message characters (bytes) that cycles from
0 to 255 and then restarts.
Output Message = complete text message from the Gryphon™ BT SH3500 reader
including optional fields as shown in par. 5.1. The maximum length of this field is 304
bytes.
CRC-16) = 2 bytes; 16-bit Cyclic Redundancy Check based on the hex 1021
polynomial and performed on all bytes from Length up to the CRC itself. The MSB is
sent first. For further details see the DL Security Protocol documentation on the CD-
ROM.
CR = Frame Stop character (0D Hex).

To simplify the management of this frame packing, and to avoid having to develop a
special proprietary software program, included on the CD-ROM are: the DL Security
Protocol example program, (written in Visual Basic), the Windlbt.dll, and the source
code of the example. The example program allows extraction of the data from the
frame, verification of the CRC, discarding any duplicate data (with the same counter
value), and automatic management of Frame Packing and ACK/NACK protocol in
response to each frame.
5.2.3 Power-Off Timeout
If this command is enabled, after the desired timeout in hours, the GRYPHON™ BT
SH3500 batteries are disconnected and all power consumption ceases. To restore
power, press the trigger once. The reader will now be ready to read codes.
Power-off does not effect configuration parameters.
5.2.4 Batch Mode
Batch mode allows codes to be stored in the gun on a FIFO basis whenever the gun
is out of range. In this case radio communication is not suspended and transmission
is attempted after each code read. If transmission cannot be successfully completed,
then the code is added to the list. When the gun returns in range, transmission of the
codes to the cradle resumes automatically, according to the selected communication
protocol, upon simply pressing and releasing the trigger or by successfully reading a
new code.

Problem Solution
The beeper and LED signal
radio disconnection from the
remote Bluetooth
®
device.
The distance between the remote device and Gryphon™
BT SH3500 may be too far or there may be obstacles to
radio transmission between them.
Reconnect.
The requested radio
connection by Gryphon™ BT
SH3500 Master does not
activate.
Reduce the distance between the devices.
Check that Gryphon™ BT SH3500 is powered (batteries
are charged), that the radio protocol software version is
compatible with Gryphon™ BT SH3500, that there is not
already another BT device connected using the same SPP
profile.
Insert the remote device address again to Gryphon™ BT
SH3500.
Check the Gryphon™ BT SH3500 configuration using the
Transmit configuration command via OM-Gryphon™ BT
SH3500 cradle.
The remote Bluetooth
®
device
recognizes Gryphon™ BT
SH3500 but cannot connect to
it.
Check that there are no limits set to the connection such
as a password.
Check that the radio protocol software version is
compatible with Gryphon™ BT SH3500.
The radio range seems
reduced.
Check that there are no obstacles to radio transmission
between the devices.
An un-connected Gryphon™
BT SH3500 Master accepts a
radio connection from another
Bluetooth
®
Master device.
In this case the Gryphon™ BT SH3500 automatically
forces a disconnection and restarts.
A Gryphon™ BT SH3500
Master fails to make an
automatic connection.
Double-click the trigger to force an immediate retry of the
radio connection or read the "Request Radio Connection"
code in par. Errore. L'origine riferimento non è stata
trovata..
