SCANNER TERMS & GLOSSARY
TM
StratosSYNC
Stratos's vertical and horizontal scanning zones operate totally independently from one
another. If one scanning plane were to go down, the other will keep on scanning
allowing no interruption to the checkout process and keeping customers moving through
the checkout lane.
TM
StratosSWAP
Modular optics engine technology, which are pre-aligned, field replaceable modules that
pop into place within minutes. Stratos incorporates two Stratos SWAP modules. The first
is for the vertical scanning plane and the second is for the horizontal scanning plane.
Both optics modules come equipped with the necessary electrical/mechanical/optical
components necessary to produce the laser scan zone. No alignment or power level
settings are required, the vertical and horizontal modular optics engine are simply Plug
N Play.
TM
StratosSCOPE
An LED indicator that provides a 2-digit code that signifies and references a condition
within the scanner. This feature allows an operator to easily determine the status of the
scanner and quickly identify any error conditions that may exist or scanner/scale
component that may require service.
TM
StratosSCHOOL
Stratos SCHOOL when enabled will store information on whether the product/barcode
was decoded at the vertical window, horizontal right or horizontal left window or
scanned via a hand-held scanner that is attached the aux. RS232 port. This information
will be reported to a graphical statistical application, which will display the scanning
statistics via a bar chart percentage format. Managers will be able to take this data and
determine whether their operators are scanning inefficiently by favoring one scanning
plan over the other. The primary objective of Stratos is to allow an operator to
successfully scan a product without having to orientate the product. Stratos SCHOO L
will provide information as to whether the operator is using safe and efficient scanning
techniques.
