Models ending in -2M are the 2 m (6.5 ft) unterminated cable models. Models ending in -Q8 have a 4-pin M12 quick disconnect integrated into the housing. If a model is listed ending in -Q8 in the model tables, the -2M option is no longer available for order. 

- To order the 4-pin M12 integral quick disconnect model, add the suffix "Q8" to the model number. For example, M18-4VNDL-Q8. 

- To order the 150 mm (6 in) PVC cable model with a 4-pin M12 quick disconnect, add the suffix "Q5" to the model number. For example, M18-4VPFF50-Q5. The -Q5 option now only applies to some of the fixed-field models. The other sensing mode models no longer have the -Q5 option available for order, but existing models are covered by the contents of this document. 

All other models that fit into these model number patterns are no longer available for order, but are covered by the contents of this document.

To install the M18-4 Barrel Sensor: 

1. Align the sensor as required for the application. For the most sensitive object detection, align the sensor so that the objects move across the sensor's axis. 

2. Secure the sensor to a bracket. 

3. Wire sensor as shown in the wiring diagrams. 

4. Adjust the gain adjuster (sensitivity pot) if necessary.

NOTE: Open lead wires must be connected to a terminal block. 

In light operate (LO) mode, the output is ON when the target returns the same or more light to the sensor and OFF when the sensor detects less light than the configured/taught target. In opposed and retroreflective sensing modes , light operate is active when the beam is unblocked. In diffuse, fixed field, and adjustable field sensor modes , light operate is active when the target is present. 

In dark operate (DO) mode, the output is ON when the target returns less light to the sensor than the configured target and OFF when the sensor detects more light than the configured/taught target. In opposed and retroreflective sensing modes ,
