Overview

Installing the programming interface

ColliseoClient is a programming interface that allows you to

receive, visualize and process data from the Visionary-B PS. It

can be installed on Windows or Linux (Ubuntu), and is used for

application programming.

1. Pleasedownloadtheinstallationle.Itisavailableat

www.sick.com/visionary-b .

2. Install the ColliseoClient software by running the installa-

tionle.

Note: Pleaseusetheappropriateinstallationlefor

youroperatingsystem.Thelesareuniquely

named.

The installation requires administrator

rights. Detailed information on installing the

programming interface is available in a separate

document included in the installation package.

On Windows: Also install “Microsoft Visual C++ Redistribut-

able for Visual Studio”, version 2015 or higher.

Checking the installation

1. Switch on the 3D camera by establishing the voltage

supply to the evaluation unit.

2. Ensure that your computer is connected to the evaluation

unit via an Ethernet cable. The IP address of the com-

puter must be in the same subnet as the evaluation unit.

The IP address of the evaluation unit is 192.168.1.123.

3. Execute one of the supplied programming examples to

verify an error-free installation and connection to the

camera.

3.1. On Windows: The default location for the program-

ming examples is “%PROGRAMFILES\ColliseoClient\

bin”, e.g., “SimpleViewer.exe”

3.2. On Ubuntu: The default location for the programming

examples is “/usr/bin”, e.g.,

“./SimpleViewer”

Note: Make sure that ports 4000 and 5000 are

enabledonyourcomputer.Deactivatetherewall,

if necessary

After installing the programming interface, the following addi-

tional steps are required to enable application programming.

The required steps depend on the underlying operating

system. Windows and Ubuntu are therefore described

separately below.

Visionary-B PS is a smart 3D streaming camera for outdoor

applications. The camera is based on the stereoscopic

principle and delivers real time data at up to eight frames per

second.

Visionary-B PS continuously streams data over Ethernet, which

after mechanical and electrical installation is complete, can

be processed and visualized on an external computer using

the supplied programming interface.

Tobeabletousethe3Dcamera,thefollowingstepsmustrst

be performed:

1. Mechanical and electrical installation

2. Install the programming interface on a local computer

3. Connect the evaluation unit to the local computer

SICK products meet industrial standards. The focus is on

availability of products and services. SICK always assumes

thattheintegrityandcondentialityofthedataandrights

affected by the use of the aforementioned products will be

ensured by the customer.

Note: At least one of these cables is required to operate the

camera!

Necessary accessories

1. Preparethesensorheadmountingposition(1)byrst

attaching a stable device holder. Pay attention to the

values for the detection zone and the sensor head’s

permitted environmental parameters.

2. Install the connecting cable for the sensor head between

the sensor head mounting location and the evaluation

unit mounting location (necessary accessory).

Install it along protected areas as much as possible (e.g.,

recesses, grooves, etc.).

Note: Ensure that the cable cannot become squashed,

pulled, or kinked. If possible use heavy duty cable

channels.

Note: Do not cover the evaluation unit and ensure

proper heat dissipation at the mounting position.

Ensure that the evaluation unit is not exposed to

direct sunlight.

3. Prepare the mounting position for the evaluation unit

(2) by getting the connection ready at the installation

location.

If possible use heavy duty cable channels here as well, or

lay the cable under cladding.

Note: Make sure that all connections are accessible.

Setting up the programming interface

Note: The evaluation unit must be switched off when it

is connected to the peripheral systems, otherwise

the components may become damaged.

2. Mount the bracket provided for the sensor head.

3. Mount the sensor head on the prepared bracket on the

vehicle.

4. Set the sensor head bracket to the designated tilt angle.

5. Connect the connecting cable to the sensor head and the

evaluation unit.

6. If mounting the device on a vehicle, switch off the

vehicle’s ignition.

Note: Please be aware that the cables and the fuse box

of your machine may still be energized.

7. Make sure that the voltage supply has been interrupted

to the connections you are using. For vehicles, press the

main battery switch and interrupt the voltage supply to

the connections for the vehicle’s electrical system.

Note: Protect the evaluation unit against electrical

overstress. You can use the supplied fuses for

this. Please note that failure to observe this

measure will invalidate any warranty claims.

8. Connect the evaluation unit to the prepared connections.

9. Connect the Ethernet cable to the evaluation unit

and your local computer or the network to which your

computer is connected.

1. Mount the evaluation unit at the designated installation

position. To do so, use the mounting screws provided or

othersuitablettings.
