The following steps describe how to properly install the cables between a secondary Metrologic scanner and the StratosS.  
The StratosS and the secondary scanner must then be configured to communicate properly. Cable installation alone does not 
guarantee that the StratosS will communicate properly with the host system and secondary scanner.   
 
 
Contact a Metrologic customer service representative before connecting another manufacturer’s scanner to the 
StratosS as a secondary scanner.

1.  Refer to pages 17 - 24 for the type of interface (RS232, IBM 46xx, etc.) required for your application.  Follow the cable 
installation steps under the appropriate interface before continuing.  Once the communication and power cables have 
been installed follow step 2 below for the secondary scanner installation. 
 
2. Connect 
the 
straight end of the RS232 PowerLink AUX cable (
MLPN
 57-57099
x-3) into the RS232 socket of the 
secondary scanner (see figure on page 27). 
 
3. Connect 
the 
angled end of the RS232 AUX cable (
MLPN
 57-57099
x-3) into the 10-pin socket labeled Aux RS232 In, on 
the bottom of the StratosS. 
 
Important:  The StratosS series’ aux port requires the signals; transmit, receive, RTS & CTS from the secondary scanner. 
 
 StratosS’ auxiliary port will support 5VDC devices with a 150mA maximum current.  If the auxiliary device exceeds 
this specification an external power supply will be required to power the auxiliary device. 
 
The following Metrologic scanners can receive power from StratosS: the MS9520, MS9540, and the MS5145. 
 
4.  This step is required for secondary devices that require >5VDC and/or 150mA current to operate.  Skip to step 5 if 
the secondary device requires ≤ 5VDC. 
 
Plug the power supply into the secondary scanner’s PowerLink cable (
MLPN
 57-57099
x-3) and connect AC power to the 
secondary scanner. 
 
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. 
 
5.  Configure the StratosS and the secondary scanner.  The auxiliary input port’s data format must match the main output 
format of the secondary scanner.
