Minimum System Requirements

Host PC Operating System: Windows® 10 Linux Ubuntu 16.04 (or newer)
Host PC Architecture: x86_64 ARM64 (NVIDIA® JetsonTM)
Hardware: Gigabit Network Interface Card (NIC)

Steps to setup the system

Check if all components to run the camera are available. This includes the camera itself, an Ethernet (M12) data cable and power supply (M8). Alternative system setup utilizing single cable for both data and power is presented.
Connect the Ethernet data cable with the M12 connector to the lower plug on the left side of the camera. Connect the RJ45 connector to Network Interface Card (NIC) on your PC. Configure NIC to obtain IP address automatically (on Linux OS, set IPv4 configuration method to “Automatic (DHCP)” in case DHCP server is available, or “Link-Local Only” in case DHCP server is not available).
Connect the power cable on the side of the M8 connector to the upper plug on the left side of the camera and then plug the adapter into the wall socket.

Steps to setup the system (PoE)

In case a PoE switch is available, the camera can be powered via the same Ethernet (M12) data cable used for data transfer.
$Steps to setup the system $PoE$$
Connect the Ethernet data cable with the M12 connector to the lower plug on the left side of the camera. Connect the RJ45 connector to the PoE capable port of the PoE switch. The camera will immediately start powering up.
Connect the PC to the PoE switch via standard RJ45 Ethernet cable (the port used for the PC connection does not need to be PoE capable). Configure NIC to obtain IP address automatically (on Linux OS, set IPv4 configuration method to “Automatic (DHCP)” in case DHCP server is available, or “Link-Local Only” in case DHCP server is not available).

Steps to install the software

The Software Package for the D400e cameras comprises of two components:

FRAMOS CameraSuite
Intel® RealSense™ SDK with support for D400e cameras

Please download the software package from here: FRAMOS D400e Software Package

Install FRAMOS CameraSuite on the host system (link above) first. Please uninstall previous versions of CameraSuite and follow the instructions provided inside the package for successful installation. Reboot the system after the installation has finished.
Install Intel® RealSense™ SDK with support for D400e cameras (link above). Please uninstall other versions of Intel® RealSense™ SDK before proceeding with the installation.
After installation, launch Intel® RealSense™ Viewer from the host terminal. It will automatically connect to first camera discovered.
Enable Depth and RGB streams to display them in the Intel® RealSense™ Viewer application. For more information about how to use the Viewer application please review the Intel® RealSense™ D400 Series/SR300 Viewer User Guide. Note that some features of SDK might not be fully implemented in current D400e camera firmware.
