A model with a QD connector requires a mating cable. 

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 , dark operate is active when the beam is blocked. In diffuse, fixed field, and adjustable field sensor modes , dark operate is active when the target is absent. 

For a list of discontinued models, see Discontinued Models. 

## Fixed-Field Mode Overview 

Q25 self-contained fixed-field sensors are small, powerful, infrared diffuse mode sensors with far-limit cutoff (a type of background suppression). Their high excess gain and fixed-field technology allow the detection of objects of low reflectivity while ignoring background surfaces. 

The cutoff distance is fixed. Backgrounds and background objects must always be placed beyond the cutoff distance. 

## Fixed-Field Sensing Theory of Operation 

The Q25 Series Sensor compares the reflections of its emitted light beam (E) from an object back to the sensor's two differently aimed detectors, R1 and R2. See "Figure: Fixed-Field Concept" on page 5. If the near detector's (R1) light signal is stronger than the far detector's (R2) light signal (see object A in the Figure below, closer than the cutoff distance), the sensor responds to the object. If the far detector's (R2) light signal is stronger than the near detector's (R1) light signal (see object B in the Figure below, beyond the cutoff distance), the sensor ignores the object. 

The cutoff distance for the Q25 is fixed at 25, 50, or 100 mm (0.9 in, 1.9 in, or 3.9 in). Objects lying beyond the cutoff distance are usually ignored, even if they are highly reflective. However, under certain conditions, it is possible to falsely detect a background object (see "Background Reflectivity and Placement" on page 6).

In the drawings and information provided in this document, the letters E, R1, and R2 identify how the sensor's three optical elements (Emitter "E", Near Detector "R1", and Far Detector "R2") line up across the face of the sensor. The location of these elements defines the sensing axis, see "Figure: Fixed-Field Sensing Axis" on page 5. 

The sensing axis becomes important in certain situations, such as when the object is beyond the cutoff distance as shown in "Background Reflectivity and Placement" on page 6.

## Sensing Reliability 

For the highest sensitivity, position the target for sensing at or near the point of maximum excess gain. See the Performance Curves section for excess gain curves. Sensing at or near this distance makes maximum use of each sensor’s available sensing power. The background must be placed beyond the cutoff distance. Note that the reflectivity of the background surface also may affect the cutoff distance. Following these guidelines improves sensing reliability. 

## Background Reflectivity and Placement 

Avoid mirror-like backgrounds that produce specular reflections. A false sensor response occurs if a background surface reflects the sensor's light more to the near detector (R1) than to the far detector (R2). The result is a false ON condition ("Figure: Reflective Background - Problem" on page 7). Correct this problem by using a diffusely reflective (matte) background or angling either the sensor or the background (in any plane) so the background does not reflect light back to the sensor ("Figure: Reflective Background - Solution" on page 7). Position the background as far beyond the cutoff distance as possible. 

An object beyond the cutoff distance, either stationary (and when positioned as shown in "Figure: Object Beyond Cutoff - Problem" on page 7), or moving past the face of the sensor in a direction perpendicular to the sensing axis, may cause unwanted triggering of the sensor if more light is reflected to the near detector than to the far detector. Correct the problem by rotating the sensor 90° ("Figure: Object Beyond Cutoff - Solution" on page 7). The object then reflects the R1 and R2 fields equally, resulting in no false triggering. A better solution, if possible, may be to reposition the object or the sensor.

## Color Sensitivity 

The effects of object reflectivity on cutoff distance, though small, may be important for some applications. It is expected that at any given cutoff setting, the actual cutoff distance for lower reflectance targets is slightly shorter than for higher reflectance targets. This behavior is known as color sensitivity. 

For example, an excess gain of 1 for an object that reflects 1/10 as much light as the 90% white card is represented by the horizontal graph line at excess gain = 10. An object of this reflectivity results in a far-limit cutoff of approximately 20 mm (0.8 in) for the 25 mm (1 in) cutoff model, for example; and 20 mm represents the cutoff for this sensor and target. 

These excess gain curves were generated using a white test card of 90% reflectance. Objects with reflectivity of less than 90% reflect less light back to the sensor and thus require proportionately more excess gain to be sensed with the same reliability as more reflective objects. When sensing an object of very low reflectivity, it may be essential to sense it at or near the distance of maximum excess gain.
