The
Stream Setup
application is downloaded from the SICK support portal,
. Select
Vision
/
3D vision
and
Ruler3000
. You use its graphical user interface
(GUI) to configure camera parameters and evaluate the measurement results.
The GUI offers different ways to visualize the data. You can also store data to file
for later use. You can change the settings of the camera and instantly see how the
changes affect the measurement result. The GUI is therefore useful for finding the best
parameter settings for a certain application.
NOTE
It is not possible to change the parameters while the image acquisition is started.
