2For your safety
2.1 Intended use
MDA Vision is a stationary DWS (Dimensioning-Weighing-Scanning) system.
It enables master data for products to be logged in a standardized manner for goods
entering or leaving a warehouse/facility. The products are measured, weighed, identified,
and visualized in a single operation.
The master data set can be supplemented to include additional information such as
information on the measurement staff or location or on company-specific object
information.
The processing of the data takes place in real time.
With the WLAN module available as an accessory, data can be output independent of the
location.
NOTE Intended use also includes observance of this system description, in particular the
safety notes as well as the repair and maintenance requirements.
The default state of the MDA Vision when shipped out of factory is set to decode a single
code.
NOTE If multiple codes or special reading conditions are determined, SICK Service should
be scheduled to configure and commission the system.
2.2 General safety notes
▸Please read this document through carefully and observe all the safety notes and
information before working with the MDA Vision.
▸Only qualified persons from the relevant departments are permitted to work on the
MDA Vision.
▸Follow operating processes.
▸Follow local regulations.
▸Follow all local regulations relating to working with electrical components.
•Only authorized persons are permitted to access the MDA Vision.
System damage/transport damage
Damage to the individual components can lead to the malfunction of the whole system.
▸Do not ignore any damage caused to system components during transport.
▸In case of damage, contact SICK Service.

2.3 Requirements for the qualification of personnel
Only qualified persons with the relevant technical expertise are permitted to work on
the system.
•Qualified persons have the specialist training, skills, and experience, as well as
knowledge of the relevant regulations and standards, to be able to perform work
assigned to them and to identify and avoid any potential dangers independently.
•Electricians have the professional training, skills and experience, and knowledge of
the relevant standards and provisions to work on electrical systems and to detect
and avoid any potential dangers independently.
2.4 Sources of danger
WARNING!
HAZARDOUS LASER RADIATION
The Lector6xx image-based code readers work with a
laser class 1 aiming laser.
The accessible beam from the aiming laser of the device does not pose a danger when
viewed directly for up to 100 seconds. It may pose a hazard to the eyes and skin in the
event of incorrect use.
▸Never look directly into the laser beam.
▸Never point the laser beam at people’s eyes.
▸During commissioning or maintenance work, suitable eye protection must be worn.
▸Avoid laser beam reflectance caused by reflective surfaces; in particular, during
mounting and alignment work.
▸Do not open the housing.
▸Current national regulations regarding laser protection must be observed.
WARNING!
DANGEROUS LED RADIATION
The Lector63xx image-based code reader uses LEDs of the risk group RG1. Visible
radiation, 400 nm to 780 nm.
The LEDs may pose a danger to the eyes in the event of incorrect use.
▸Do not look into the light source intentionally.
▸Do not point the light source at people and prevent reflections of the light source
from reflective surfaces onto people.
▸During commissioning or maintenance work, suitable eye protection must be worn.
▸Do not open the housing.
▸Comply with the recent national version of the applicable standards on
photobiological safety of lamps and lamp systems.

Projector for emitting structured infrared light (dot pattern)
•Visionary-S is a 3D color camera based on the stereo principle.
•It delivers real-time 3D data at 30 frames per second (fps).
•The Visionary-S 3D vision camera combines structured illumination with the proven
technology of a color camera.
•It delivers color depth images with more than 320,000 depth and color intensity values
in just one shot
•The snapshot camera works similarly to a human pair of eyes.
•Two cameras take two images of an object from two different positions and
calculate the 3D depth information using the triangulation principle.
•The emission of structured light helps to give the images a clear and predefined,
familiar structure.
•The additional use of the integrated color camera helps with edge detection.

Fig. 4: Functionality of the Visionary-S
•Structured infrared light is emitted over a wide area in the field of view of the snapshot
camera.
•The infrared dot pattern is deflected accordingly by the height differences when it hits
the surface.
•The image information from the two infrared cameras is offset. A depth image is
generated based on the respective deflection of the point pattern.
•In addition, the color image of the camera is evaluated. The color information helps to
detect the object in case of low contrast depth image information or background noise.
•A 3D point cloud is generated based on the two pieces of image information.
•This forms the basis for calculation of the dimension values.
•The dimension results are transmitted to the system controller for further processing.
The Visionary-S 3D camera records an image of the complete scene.
NOTE The built-in color camera within the Visionary-S does not support cropping. The
optional IP camera can always be added to achieve the dynamic cropping functionality
(see 3.7.2 High-resolution color camera).

•Allows the omnidirectional reading of bar codes on one side of an object, even with
varying object heights and code positions.
•With the Lector65x, an aiming laser creates a red cross in the field of view on the
object and makes it easier to align the object for successful code reading. See Figure 7
below.
•With the Lector63x, alignment is performed via two red laser sources. Each of laser
source creates a red dot in the field of view as shown in Figure 8 below.

Fig. 10: Operating principle of the Lector65x code reader
•The Lector6xx is mounted at an angle in the sensor head so that the code of the
objects can be read as soon as it enters the camera field of view.
•The image-based code reader takes pictures and searches for code information within
these images.
•The code reading process starts as soon as the Visionary-S detects a change in the
field of view.
•For the code decoding, the reading field is lit up with a powerful LED illumination unit.
•The code information on the photos is extracted and processed by the integrated
decoding unit.
•Transfer of the read code to the system controller for further processing.

•The separate scale display is installed in the base plate of the MDA Vision at the
factory.
•It makes it possible to set the geo code. This compensates for differences in gravity
between the location in the factory (where the scale was calibrated) and the installation
location of the scale.
