Datalogic Gryphon GBT4600 HC Barcode Scanner (GBT4600-HC-BTK1-HP)

The Datalogic Gryphon GBT4600 HC is the healthcare version of the Bluetooth® cordless Gryphon 4600, Datalogic's newest premium 2D handheld imager. Its white, disinfectant-ready housing is treated with antimicrobial additives (ISO 22196 compliant) and designed to withstand daily cleaning with harsh disinfectant solutions. Bluetooth 5.2 Classic and Low Energy gives up to 100 m range from the base station, and wireless (inductive) charging means there are no charging contacts to clean or wear out. High Performance (HP) dual-sensor optics and AI-powered neural decoding read patient wristbands, medication packs, specimen tubes and codes on phone screens first time, and every good read is confirmed by Green Spot, 3GL™ and a silent vibration. A removable 3250 mAh battery delivers more than 80,000 scans per charge. The scanner works with the white WLC4690-HC-BT base or pairs directly with Bluetooth PCs, tablets and smartphones – for example on medication carts. This version, GBT4600-HC-BTK1-HP, is supplied as a complete USB kit with the white WLC4690-HC-BT Bluetooth wireless charging base and a white 2 m USB cable, ready to plug in and scan.

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.
• Disinfectant-ready healthcare housing – white enclosure with antimicrobial additives (ISO 22196 compliant), designed to withstand daily wipe-down with harsh disinfectant solutions – ideal for infection control in wards, laboratories and pharmacies.
• Bluetooth 5.2 Classic and Low Energy – 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, HOGP or SPP).
• 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 every code in the care chain – 1D, 2D, stacked and composite codes, GS1 DataBar, GS1 Digital Link, Digimarc digital watermarks and OCR (OCR-A, OCR-B, MICR): patient wristbands, medication and unit-dose labels, specimen tubes, and e-prescriptions or appointment QR codes on 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 silent vibration feedback – a green spot projected onto the code, Three Green Lights and a vibration alert confirm every good read without disturbing patients – ideal for night-time rounds; on busy, noisy wards the feedback stays clear, and the beeper tone and volume are adjustable.
• 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.

Ideal Applications

• Patient identification – scanning wristbands and patient records at the bedside
• Medication administration (BCMA) – matching patient, medication and caregiver at the point of care
• Laboratories – specimen tubes, sample labels and small, dense 2D codes
• Pharmacies – dispensing, 2D Data Matrix codes on medicine packs and e-prescriptions on phone screens
• Clinics, care homes and admissions desks – patient check-in, documents and appointment QR codes
