Using the Gryphon™ I GD44XX
The Gryphon™ I GD44XX normally functions by capturing 
and decoding codes. The reader is equipped with an internal 
motion-sensing function which activates the aiming system on 
device motion. The intelligent aiming system indicates the 
field of view which should be positioned over the bar code:
Aiming System
Relative Size and Location of Aiming System Pattern
A red beam illuminates the label. The field of view indicated 
by the aiming system will be smaller when the reader is closer 
to the bar code and larger when it is farther from the code. 
Symbologies with smaller bars or elements (mil size) should be 
read closer to the unit. Symbologies with larger bars or ele-
ments (mil size) should be read farther from the unit.
If the aiming system is centered and the entire bar code is 
within the aiming field, you will get a good read. Successful 
reading is signaled by an audible tone plus a good-read green 
spot LED indicator.
