ESCRIPTIONS


Audible

When in operation the StratosH 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, six 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 33.

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 33.



Visual

White and blue LEDs are located at the top of the vertical output
window. When the scanner is

ON

, the flashing or constant,

illumination of the LEDs indicates the status of the StratosH and the
current scan.


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.

Steady Blue and Single White Flash

When the scanner successfully reads a bar code, the white LED will flash and the scanner will beep once. If the white LED
does not flash or the scanner does not beep once, then the bar code has not been successfully read.
