    Shouldn’t it work to

    What TeX format do you intend to use?

    Plain TeX?
    OpTeX?
    LaTeX 2e? (What documentclass? What additional packages?)

    With LaTeX2e s.th. like: \renewcommand\theequation{S\arabic{equation}}
    When using the package hyperref, you may wish to do redefine
    \theHequation as well.


    Sincerely

    Ulrich

    Just of the top of my head, without much testing: It should be possible
    to redefine the "Appendix"-string as "Supplement". Everything should
    work automatically from there. \renewcommand{\appendixname}{Supplement}
    or so
