To ensure reliable detection, orient the sensor as shown in relation to the target to be detected. _Optimal Orientation of Target to Sensor_ **==> picture [166 x 105] intentionally omitted <==** page 2 of 16 © Banner Engineering Corp. All rights reserved. www.bannerengineering.com 24-Jul-25 Q5X with Dual Discrete Outputs and IO-Link Quick Start Guide See the following figures for examples of correct and incorrect sensor-to-target orientation as certain placements may pose problems for sensing some targets. The Q5X can be used in the less preferred orientation and at steep angles of incidence and still provide reliable detection performance due to its high excess gain. For the minimum object separation distance required for each case, refer to "Q5X Dual Discrete with IO-Link Performance Curves" on page 13. **==> picture [448 x 210] intentionally omitted <==** **----- Start of picture text -----**

## Clean Sensor with Compressed Air and Water Handle the sensor with care during installation and operation. Sensor windows soiled by fingerprints, dust, water, oil, etc. create stray light that may degrade the peak performance of the sensor. Blow the window clear using filtered, compressed air, then clean as necessary using only water and a lint-free cloth. Do not use any other chemicals for cleaning. ## Connecting to RSD1 The following diagram depicts the connection of the Q5X to the optional RSD1 accessory. _Q5X to RSD1_ Double Ended Shielded MQDEC3-503SS MQDEC3-506SS MQDEC3-515SS MQDEC3-530SS Flying Lead Shielded MQDEC2-506 MQDEC2-515 RSD1 MQDEC2-530 **==> picture [207 x 61] intentionally omitted <==** **----- Start of picture text -----**

page 8 of 16 © Banner Engineering Corp. All rights reserved. www.bannerengineering.com 24-Jul-25 Q5X with Dual Discrete Outputs and IO-Link Quick Start Guide ## Basic TEACH Instructions Use the following instructions to teach the Q5X sensor. The instructions provided on the sensor display vary depending on the type of TEACH mode selected. Two-point TEACH is the default TEACH mode. 1. Press and hold TEACH for longer than 2 seconds to start the selected TEACH mode. 2. - Present the target. 3. Press TEACH to teach the target. The target is taught and the sensor waits for the second target, if required by the selected TEACH mode, or returns to Run mode. 4. Complete these steps only if it is required for the selected TEACH mode. - a. Present the second target. - b. Press TEACH to teach the target. The target is taught and the sensor returns to Run mode. See the Instruction Manual for detailed instructions and other available TEACH modes. The TEACH modes include: - Two-point static background suppression —Two-point TEACH sets a single switch point. The sensor sets the switch point between two taught target distances, relative to the shifted origin location. - Dynamic background suppression —Dynamic TEACH sets a single switch point during machine run conditions. The sensor takes multiple samples and the switch point is set between the minimum and the maximum sampled distances. - One-point window (foreground suppression) —One-point window sets a window (two switch points) centered around the taught target distance. - One-point background suppression —One-point background suppression sets a single switch point in front of the taught target distance. Objects beyond the taught switch point are ignored. - Dual intensity + distance —Dual mode records the distance and amount of light received from the reference surface. See for more information about selecting a reference surface. The output switches when an object passing between the sensor and the reference surface changes the perceived distance or amount of returned light. ## Manual Adjustments Manually adjust the sensor switch point using the + and - buttons. 1. From Run mode, press either + or - one time. The selected channel displays briefly, then the current switch point value flashes slowly. 2. Press + to move the switch point up or - to move the switch point down. After 1 second of inactivity, the new switch point value flashes rapidly, the new setting is accepted, and the sensor returns to Run mode. NOTE: When FGS mode is selected (FGS indicator is on), manual adjustment moves both sides of the symmetrical threshold window simultaneously, expanding and collapsing the window size. Manual adjustment does not move the center point of the window. NOTE: When dual mode is selected (DYN, FGS, and BGS indicators are on), after the TEACH process is completed, use the manual adjustment to adjust the sensitivity of the thresholds around the taught reference point. The taught reference point is a combination of the measured distance and returned signal intensity from the reference target. Manual adjustment does not move the taught reference point, but pressing + increases the sensitivity, and pressing - decreases the sensitivity. When re-positioning the sensor or changing the reference target, re-teach the sensor. ## Locking and Unlocking the Sensor Buttons Use the lock and unlock feature to prevent unauthorized or accidental programming changes. Three settings are available: - —The sensor is unlocked and all settings can be modified (default). - —The sensor is locked and no changes can be made. - —The switch point value can be changed by teaching or manual adjustment, but no sensor settings can be changed through - the menu. When the sensor is in either Loc or 0Loc mode, the active channel can be changed using (+)(CH1/CH2) . When in Loc mode, Loc displays when the (SELECT)(TEACH) button is pressed. The switch point displays when (+)(CH1/CH2) or (-) (MODE) are pressed, but Loc displays if the buttons are pressed and held. When in 0Loc mode, Loc displays when (-)(MODE) is pressed and held. To access the manual adjust options, briefly press and release (+) (CH1/CH2) or (-)(MODE) . To enter TEACH mode, press the (SELECT)(TEACH) button and hold for longer than 2 seconds. To enter Loc mode, hold + and press - four times. To enter 0Loc mode, hold + and press - seven times.

Do not stare into the beam. **CLASS 2 LASER PRODUCT** Complies with 21 CFR 1040.10 and 1040.11 except for deviations > pursuant to Laser Notice No. 56, dated May 8, 2019. {J ## CAUTION: - Never stare directly into the sensor lens. - Laser light can damage your eyes. - Avoid placing any mirror-like object in the beam. Never use a mirror as a retroreflective target. ## CAUTION: - Return defective units to the manufacturer. - Use of controls or adjustments or performance of procedures other than those specified herein may result in hazardous radiation exposure. - Do not attempt to disassemble this sensor for repair. A defective unit must be returned to the manufacturer. page 12 of 16 © Banner Engineering Corp. All rights reserved. www.bannerengineering.com 24-Jul-25 Q5X with Dual Discrete Outputs and IO-Link Quick Start Guide Class 2 lasers are lasers that emit visible radiation in the wavelength range from 400 nm to 700 nm, where eye protection is normally afforded by aversion responses, including the blink reflex. This reaction may be expected to provide adequate protection under reasonably foreseeable conditions of operation, including the use of optical instruments for intrabeam viewing. Complies with IEC 60825-1:2014 and EN 60825-1:2014+A11:2021. Class 2 Laser Safety Notes . Low-power lasers are, by definition, incapable of causing eye injury within the duration of a blink (aversion response) of 0.25 seconds. They also must emit only visible wavelengths (400 nm to 700 nm). Therefore, an ocular hazard may exist only if individuals overcome their natural aversion to bright light and stare directly into the laser beam. ## IMPORTANT: This laser device is not bore-sighted. ## Models with maximum range of 2000 mm Class 2 Laser Characteristics Output power: All models: < 1.0 mW Laser wavelength: All models: 650 nm Pulse duration: 20 µs to 2 ms ## Models with a range of 2000 mm to 5000 mm Class 2 Laser Characteristics Output Power: All models: < 1.0 mW Laser wavelength: All models: 650 nm Pulse Duration: 20 µs to 2 ms ## Models with maximum range ≥ 5000 mm Class 2 Laser Characteristics Output Power: All models: < 1.0 mW Laser wavelength: All models: 650 nm Pulse Duration: 3 µs ## FCC Part 15 Class A for Unintentional Radiators This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class A digital device, pursuant to Part 15 of the FCC Rules.

## Dual Mode Reference Surface Considerations Optimize reliable detection by applying these principles when selecting your reference surface, positioning your sensor relative to the reference surface, and presenting your target. The robust detection capabilities of the Q5X allows successful detection even under non-ideal conditions in many cases. Typical reference surfaces are metal machine frames, conveyor side rails, or mounted plastic targets. Contact Banner Engineering if you require assistance setting up a stable reference surface in your application. For detailed instructions for detecting clear or transparent objects, refer to the Instruction Manual, p/n 208794. 1. Select a reference surface with these characteristics where possible: - Matte or diffuse surface finish - Fixed surface with no vibration - Dry surface with no build-up of oil, water, or dust 2. Position the reference surface between 200 mm (20 cm) and the maximum sensing range. 3. Position the target to be detected as close to the sensor as possible, and as far away from the reference surface as possible. 4. Angle the sensing beam relative to the target and relative to the reference surface 10 degrees or more. ## Product Support and Maintenance ## Clean Sensor with Compressed Air and Water Handle the sensor with care during installation and operation. Sensor windows soiled by fingerprints, dust, water, oil, etc. create stray light that may degrade the peak performance of the sensor. Blow the window clear using filtered, compressed air, then clean as necessary using only water and a lint-free cloth. Do not use any other chemicals for cleaning. © Banner Engineering Corp.
