RS232
The following steps describe how to properly install the cables for an RS232 Stratos
H
application. The scanner
must
then be
configured to match the host’s RS232 parameters. Cable installation alone
does not
guarantee that the Stratos
H
will communicate
properly with the host system.
Configuration bar codes are located in the MetroSelect Configuration Guide
(
PN
00-02407
x
) and the MS2
xxx
Stratos Series
Configuration Addendum (
PN
00-02034
x
).
1. Turn off the host system.
2. Plug the 10-pin RJ45 end of the RS232 interface cable (
PN
57-57000
x
-N-3) into the 10-pin socket labeled,
Scanner
RS232 to Host
,
on the bottom of the Stratos
H
. 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
46-46
xxx
) into the 3-pin Molex socket labeled,
DC Power In
, on the bottom of the Stratos
H
.

* 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 Stratos
H
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
00-02407
x)
, under
Need to Start Over
.
8. Configure the Stratos
H
to match the host system’s RS232 parameters.
Refer to the MetroSelect Configuration Guide (
PN
00-02407
x
) under
Section G: RS232
for
Enabling RS232 Mode
(scan
the
recall defaults
bar code first)
