It is important to carefully read the notes marked with a symbol on the pages

contained in this manual. Not all configuration codes are designed to be used for
both a single and dual cable scanner/scale system. Many of the configuration
bar codes require additional steps before the unit can be configured and placed
into service. Most of the bar codes in this addendum were designed to be used
with a Stratos model that includes a scale. The text marked with a symbol will

provide important additional information about the restrictions and uses of the bar
codes shown.


All of the bar codes in this manual require:

• The scanner/scale to have a firmware number of 14996 or higher
• All configuration bar codes must be scanned with the vertical window



The bar codes (starting with 996) located on pages 5 - 19 also
require the scanner/scale to:

• Be in scale program mode (see page 2)
• Be calibrated, sealed and certified by local Weights and Measures

authorities after the scale configuration process has been completed.
The scanner/scale can not be placed in service until it is sealed and
certified by the proper authorities.

For further details on calibration procedures for Weights and Measures
certification, refer to the Scale Operation: Calibration section of the
Stratos Installation and User’s Guide.


The certification of the weighing mechanism of the scale version of
this scanner is subject to federal, state and local Weights and
Measures statutes and regulations and can only be performed by
authorized government agencies and/or their duly registered
agents. Each time the scale or weighing mechanism is calibrated,
it should be properly sealed with a paper seal or a wire seal prior to
being placed into service in commerce.

It is the responsibility of the owner of the scale to confirm
compliance with the relevant Weights and Measures statutes and
regulations applicable in your area by checking with the appropriate
government agency before placing a newly calibrated unit into
service or removing any official seals.
