SCANNER OPERATION
POWER SAVE MODES
The StratosS has five configurable power save modes. Refer to the MetroSelect Configuration Guide for additional
information on Power Save Modes.
1. Blink Power Save Mode:
Blinks the laser OFF & ON after a configured period of non-use.
When the scanner recognizes a bar code it will exit the Blink mode.
2. Laser Off Power Save Mode:
Turns the laser OFF after a configured period of non-use. The motor continues to spin allowing for a faster “wake” up
time.
Any movement detected by the IR will “wake” the scanner from the Laser Off power save mode (see Figure 30
on page 29).
3. Laser & Motor Off Power Save Mode:
Turns the laser and motor OFF after a configured period of non-use.
Any movement detected by the IR will “wake” the scanner from the power save mode (see Figure 30 on page 29).
This mode’s “wake” time is slightly longer due to the motor’s need to restart.
4. Dual Action Power Save Mode #1:
“Blinks” the laser OFF & ON after a configured period of non-use turns the laser and motor OFF at thirty-minute intervals.
Example:
If the power save timeout is set to 15 minutes.
Any movement detected by the IR will “wake” the scanner from the power save mode (see Figure 30 on page 29).
5. Dual Action Power Save Mode #2 (Default):
Turns the laser OFF after a configured period of non-use then turns the motor OFF after thirty-minute intervals.
Example:
If the power save timeout is set to 15 minutes.
Any movement detected by the IR will “wake” the scanner from the power save mode (see Figure 30 on page 29).
