INSTALLATION
CABLE INSTALLATION (INTERFACE SPECIFIC)
FULL SPEED USB
The following steps describe how to properly install the cables for a Full Speed USB StratosH application. The scanner must then be
configured to match the host’s USB 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 USB interface cable (PN 57-57200x-N-3 or 57-57006x-N-3) into the 10-pin socket labeled,
Scanner USB to Host, on the bottom of the StratosH. Refer to Figure on page 21.
3. Connect the other end of the USB interface cable to the appropriate USB port on the host device.
Before continuing verify that the USB interface cable is connected to the appropriate socket on the scanner. An incorrect
cable connection can cause communication problems or potential damage to the scanner and/or terminal.
Manufacturers Note: Plugging the scanner into the USB port of the host does not guarantee that scanned information will
appear at the host. A software driver and correct configuration setting are also required for proper communication to occur.
When using the RS232/Full Speed USB/RS485 (-121) interface, the USB and RS485 interfaces are not active at the same
time.
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. Configure the StratosH to match the host system’s USB parameters.
The IBM OEM Full Speed USB Communication Defaults** bar code is located in the
MS2xxx Stratos Series Configuration Addendum (PN 00-02034x) under Scanner Configuration Bar Codes: Dual Cable
Scanner Configuration Bar Codes, IBM OEM Full Speed USB Communication Defaults and
IBM OEM Full Speed USB Protocols.
** For scanner only StratosH models. If a scale has been integrated into a scale ready MS2321, the configuration bar code shown
does not apply.
