The Datalogic Gryphon GM4600 is the cordless version of Datalogic's newest premium Gryphon 4600 2D handheld imager. It uses the Datalogic STAR Cordless System (433 MHz) radio with at least 50 m range and wireless (inductive) charging – there are no charging contacts to clean or wear out. High Performance (HP) dual-sensor optics and AI-powered neural decoding read 1D, 2D, postal and Digimarc codes from near contact to long range, from paper labels and phone screens, and every good read is confirmed by Green Spot, 3GL™ and vibration. A removable 3250 mAh battery delivers more than 80,000 scans per charge. This version, GM4600-BK-433K1-HP, is black and is supplied as a complete USB kit with the WLC4690-BK-433 wireless charging base station and a 2 m USB cable, ready to plug in and scan.
📦 What's in the box – GM4600-BK-433K1-HP
- ✅ Datalogic Gryphon GM4600 scanner – black, High Performance (HP) 2D imager, 433 MHz STAR radio
- ✅ Rechargeable battery – Li-ion, 3250 mAh, removable – charges wirelessly in the base
- ✅ WLC4690-BK-433 wireless charging base station – 433 MHz radio receiver and inductive charger – sends the scanner's data to your PC or POS (USB, USB-C or RS-232, depending on the cable)
- ✅ USB cable – Type A, straight, 2 m, black, Datalogic 90A052258
- ❌ Power supply – not included – not needed with USB (the base is powered by the host); for the fastest charging or RS-232 cables that require external power, add the 8-0935 12 V power supply with a power cord
💡 How it connects: link the scanner to its base once, following the quick reference guide – the base then works plug-and-play with your PC or POS via USB (USB-C or RS-232 with the appropriate Datalogic cable), with at least 50 m radio range in open air. Placing the scanner on the base charges it wirelessly.
💡 Need a holder for a second workstation or for wall mounting? Add the Datalogic desk/wall holder HLD-G041-BK. For faster charging or RS-232 cables that need external power, add the Datalogic 12 V power supply 8-0935.
Key Features
- AI-powered neural decoding – a high-speed dual-core processor with AI algorithms and neural-network decoding reads damaged, poorly printed or distorted 1D and 2D codes faster, also on shiny, reflective or curved surfaces.
- High Performance (HP) dual-sensor optics – 1.5 MP + VGA sensors read from near contact to long range: 13 mil EAN/UPC up to 100 cm and 20 mil Code 39 up to 125 cm, while still resolving 3 mil codes.
- Datalogic STAR Cordless System (433 MHz) – reliable 433 MHz radio away from the busy 2.4 GHz Wi-Fi/Bluetooth band, at least 50 m range in open air, two-way communication and point-to-point or point-to-multipoint configurations with up to 16 scanners per radio receiver.
- Wireless charging, long battery life – inductive charging in the WLC4690 base eliminates charging contacts that need cleaning or wear out; the removable 3250 mAh Li-ion battery delivers more than 80,000 scans per charge and charges fully in approx. 3.5 hours.
- Reads everything at the counter – 1D, 2D, postal, stacked and composite codes, GS1 Digital Link, Digimarc digital watermarks and OCR (OCR-A, OCR-B, MICR), from paper labels and from phone screens; plus image capture as BMP, JPEG or TIFF.
- Dual-colour illumination and green cross aimer – user-selectable warm white or Hyper Red LED illumination adapts to any application, the highly visible green central cross makes targeting easy, and 70 IPS motion tolerance reads fast-moving codes first time.
- Green Spot, 3GL™ and vibration feedback – a green spot projected onto the code, Three Green Lights and a vibration alert confirm every good read, even in noisy environments.
- Flexible connectivity – the WLC4690 base offers USB, USB-C and RS-232 multi-interface, depending on the cable; free Datalogic Aladdin configuration tool, Datalogic Connect, OPOS/JavaPOS utilities and Remote Host Download.
- Eco-designed and built to last – over 70% recycled plastic parts; withstands repeated 1.8 m drops onto concrete and 2,000 tumbles, IP52 sealed, with a trigger rated for 10 million presses.
