The Datalogic Gryphon I GBT4200 is the Bluetooth® cordless version of Datalogic's premium Gryphon 4200 1D linear imager. It reads all standard 1D barcodes – including high-density, low-contrast and damaged codes as well as codes on mobile phone screens – at distances of up to 90 cm, connects via Bluetooth 5.0 with up to 100 m range from its base station and charges wirelessly (inductively) in the base – there are no charging contacts to clean or wear out. Every good read is confirmed by Datalogic's Green Spot and 3GL™, the removable 2550 mAh battery lasts for up to 80,000 reads per charge, and the disinfectant-ready IP52 housing stands up to daily cleaning. This version, GBT4200-BK-WLC, is black and is supplied as the scanner only (with battery) – the WLC4190-BK-BT charging base and an interface cable are not included; it is intended as an additional or replacement scanner for an existing WLC4190 Bluetooth base, or for direct Bluetooth pairing with a PC, tablet or smartphone.
📦 What's in the box – GBT4200-BK-WLC
- ✅ Datalogic Gryphon I GBT4200 scanner – black, 1D linear imager, Bluetooth 5.0
- ✅ Rechargeable battery – Li-ion, 2550 mAh, removable (RBP-GM4200) – charges wirelessly in the base
- ❌ Charging base WLC4190-BK-BT – NOT included – the scanner charges only in a WLC4190 wireless charging base, which also provides a plug-and-play USB/RS-232 connection (order separately)
- ❌ Interface cable – NOT included – needed to connect the base to your PC or POS (order separately)
⚠️ A charging base is required: the GBT4200 charges only wirelessly in a Datalogic WLC4190 base, which is not in the box – without it the battery cannot be recharged. Order the Datalogic WLC4190-BK-BT Bluetooth base together with the Datalogic USB cable 90A052258 (straight, 2 m), or choose the GBT4200-BK-BTK1 kit, which includes the scanner, base and USB cable.
💡 Two ways to connect: link the scanner to an existing WLC4190 Bluetooth base (up to 7 scanners per base) for a plug-and-play USB or RS-232 connection, or pair it directly with a Bluetooth-enabled PC, tablet or smartphone as a keyboard (HID) or serial port (SPP), following the quick reference guide. Good to know: “WLC” in the part number stands for wireless charging (all GBT4200 scanners charge inductively) – it does not mean that a base is included.
💡 Need a holder for a second workstation or for wall mounting? Add the Datalogic desk/wall holder HLD-G041-BK or the Datalogic auto-sense stand STD-G041-BK. For faster charging or RS-232 cables that need external power, add the Datalogic 12 V power supply 8-0935.
Key Features
- 1D linear imager – reads all standard 1D barcodes, including GS1 DataBar, as well as high-density, low-contrast, poorly printed or damaged codes and 1D codes on mobile phone screens. Please note: it does not read 2D codes such as QR codes or Data Matrix; for those, choose a 2D model such as the Datalogic Gryphon I GBT4500.
- Long reading range – up to 90 cm on 13 mil EAN/UPC and 147 cm on 20 mil Code 39, with resolution down to 3 mil and up to 400 scans per second.
- Bluetooth 5.0 wireless technology – up to 100 m range with the base station (Class 1, open air), data encryption and scanner authentication; up to 7 scanners per base, or pair the scanner directly with Bluetooth PCs, tablets and smartphones (HID keyboard emulation or SPP serial port).
- Wireless charging, long battery life – inductive charging in the WLC4190 base eliminates charging contacts that need cleaning or wear out, and the removable 2550 mAh Li-ion battery delivers up to 80,000 reads per charge.
- Soft line viewfinder – a clearly visible aiming line makes it quick to target the right barcode, even on crowded labels.
- Green Spot and 3GL feedback – a green light projected onto the barcode plus three green lights (3GL) on the scanner confirm every good read, even in noisy or dark environments.
- Motionix motion sensing – detects when the scanner is picked up and switches automatically between handheld and presentation (stand) mode.
- Flexible connectivity – the sleek WLC4190 desk/wall base is a USB, USB-C and RS-232 multi-interface, depending on the cable; free Datalogic Aladdin configuration tool, OPOS/JavaPOS utilities and Remote Host Download.
- Disinfectant-ready and rugged – housing built for daily cleaning with harsh disinfectants, IP52 sealed and withstands repeated 1.8 m drops to concrete.
