SCANNER OPERATION
INDICATOR DESCRIPTIONS
Audible
When in operation the StratosS provides audible feedback that indicates the status of the unit and the current scan. Eight
settings are available for the tone of the beep (normal, 6 alternate tones and no tone) plus three volume settings.
To change the tone or volume, refer to the Changing the Beeper Tone & Volume section of this manual.
One Beep
When the scanner first receives power the white LED will flash, the blue LED will turn on and the scanner will beep once
(the white LED will remain on for the duration of the beep). The scanner is now ready to scan.
When the scanner successfully reads a bar code, the white LED will flash and the scanner beeps once (if configured to do
so). If the scanner does not beep once and the white light does not flash, then the bar code has not been successfully
read.
Razzberry Tone
This is a failure indicator. Refer to failure modes on page 32.
Three Beeps - during operation
When placing the scanner in configuration mode, the white LED will flash while the scanner simultaneously beeps three
times. The white and blue LEDs will continue to flash until the unit exits configuration mode. Upon exiting configuration
mode, the scanner will beep three times and the white LED will stop flashing.
When configured, three beeps can also indicate a communications timeout during normal scanning mode.
When using one-code-configuring, the scanner will beep three times (the current selected tone), followed by a short
pause, a high tone and a low tone. This tells the user that the single configuration bar code has successfully configured
the scanner.
Three Beeps - on power up
This is a failure indicator. Refer to failure modes on page 32.
Visual
White and blue LEDs are located near the bottom corner of the vertical output window on the StratosS. When the scanner is
ON, the flashing or constant, illumination of the LEDs indicates the status of the StratosS and the current scan. There is an
additional amber LED next to the scale zero symbol on all StratosS models that include a scale (see figure below).
No White or Blue LED
The LEDs will not be illuminated if the scanner is not receiving
power from the host or transformer. They are also not
illuminated when all lasers are turned off for any reason.
Steady Blue
When all lasers are active, the blue LED is illuminated. The
blue LED will remain illuminated until all lasers are
deactivated.
