INSTALLATION
CABLE INSTALLATION (INTERFACE SPECIFIC)
RS232
The following steps describe how to properly install the cables for an RS232 StratosH application. The scanner must then be
configured to match the host’s RS232 parameters. Cable installation alone does not guarantee that the StratosH will communicate
properly with the host system.
Configuration bar codes are located in the MetroSelect Configuration Guide (PN 00-02407x) and the MS2xxx Stratos Series
Configuration Addendum (PN 00-02034x).
1. Turn off the host system.
2. Plug the 10-pin RJ45 end of the RS232 interface cable (PN 57-57000x-N-3) into the 10-pin socket labeled, Scanner RS232 to Host,
on the bottom of the StratosH. Refer to figure on page 19.
3. Connect the other end of the RS232 cable to the proper communication port on the host device.
Before continuing, verify that the RS232 interface cable is connected to the appropriate interface socket on the scanner. An
incorrect cable connection can cause communication problems or potential damage to the scanner and/or terminal.
4. Plug the external power supply (PN 46-46xxx) into the 3-pin Molex socket labeled, DC Power In, on the bottom of the StratosH.
xxx* Specifies international connection. See Optional Accessories in the Introduction section of this guide for a complete listing.
Check the AC input requirements of the power supply to make sure the voltage matches the AC outlet.
The outlet should be located near the equipment and be easily accessible.
Honeywell recommends using a switched AC outlet. The switch should be located on the operator’s side of the checkout
counter in close proximity to the StratosH to facilitate calibration and service of the unit.
5. Connect AC power to the transformer. If the AC outlet is equipped with an on/off switch, turn the power on.
6. Turn on the host system.
7. Scan the Recall Defaults bar code.
The Recall Defaults bar code is located in the MetroSelect Configuration Guide (PN 00-02407x), under
Need to Start Over.
8. Configure the StratosH to match the host systems RS232 parameters.
Refer to the MetroSelect Configuration Guide (PN 00-02407x) under Section G: RS232 for Enabling RS232 Mode (scan
the recall defaults bar code first).
