QS18VxAF250 Electronically Adjustable Background Suppression Sensor (30-250mm)
Installation Instructions
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 adjustable field sensing modes, light operate is active when the target is present and dark operate is active when the target is absent.
## Sensor Setup (Background Suppression Mode)
Background Suppression Mode: Objects beyond the set cutoff distance will not be detected. Background suppression mode can be used in most situations with varying object colors and positions or with varying background conditions.
To ensure reliable background suppression, a minimum separation distance between the object and the background is necessary. To determine the minimum separation distance, see "QS18VxAF250 Performance Curves" on page 5.
1. Mount the sensor with the darkest object at the longest application distance. The distance to the object must be less than shown in "Figure: Minimum separation between object and background (Background Suppression Mode) for AF250 models" on page 5, or "Figure: Minimum separation between object and background (Background Suppression Mode) for AF120 models" on page 5 for your object color, depending on the model.
2. Turn the adjustment potentiometer counterclockwise until the yellow indicator turns off.
3. Turn the adjustment potentiometer clockwise until the yellow indicator turns on.
4.
5.
- Replace the darkest object with the brightest background at the closest application distance.
- Turn the adjustment potentiometer clockwise until the yellow indicator turns on.
6. Turn the adjustment potentiometer counterclockwise approximately half of the adjustment rotation from step 5. This places the cutoff distance approximately half-way between the object and the background switch points. If sufficient separation exists between the object and the background, the sensor is ready for operation.

## IO-Link Interface
IO-Link®[(1)] is a point-to-point communication link between a master device and sensor. Use IO-Link to parameterize sensors and transmit process data automatically.
For the latest IO-Link protocol and specifications, see www.io-link.com.
Each IO-Link device has an IODD (IO Device Description) file that contains information about the manufacturer, article number, functionality etc. This information can be easily read and processed by the user. Each device can be unambiguously

Installation Instructions
identified via the IODD as well as via an internal device ID. Download the QS18's IO-Link IODD package (p/n 206635) from Banner Engineering's website at www.bannerengineering.com.
Banner has also developed Add On Instruction (AOI) files to simplify ease-of-use between the QS18, multiple third-party vendors' IO-Link masters, and the Logix Designer software package for Rockwell Automation PLCs. Three types of AOI files for Rockwell Allen-Bradley PLCs are listed below. These files and more information can be found at www.bannerengineering.com.
Process Data AOIs —These files can be used alone, without the need for any other IO-Link AOIs. The job of a Process Data AOI is to intelligently parse out the Process Data word(s) in separate pieces of information. All that is required to make use of this AOI is an EtherNet/IP connection to the IO-Link Master and knowledge of where the Process Data registers are located for each port.
Parameter Data AOIs —These files require the use of an associated IO-Link Master AOI. The job of a Parameter Data AOI, when working in conjunction with the IO-Link Master AOI, is to provide quasi-realtime read/write access to all IO-Link parameter data in the sensor. Each Parameter Data AOI is specific to a given sensor or device.
IO-Link Master AOIs —These files require the use of one or more associated Parameter Data AOIs. The job of an IO-Link Master AOI is to translate the desired IO-Link read/write requests, made by the Parameter Data AOI, into the format a specific IO-Link Master requires. Each IO-Link Master AOI is customized for a given brand of IO-Link Master.
Add and configure the relevant Banner IO-Link Master AOI in your ladder logic program first; then add and configure Banner IO-Link Device AOIs as desired, linking them to the Master AOI as shown in the relevant AOI documentation.

## Clean Sensor with Compressed Air Then Isopropyl Alcohol
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 dust from the sensor using filtered, compressed air. If the sensor is still dirty, gently wipe the sensor with a dry optical cloth. If the dry optical cloth does not remove all residue, use 70% isopropyl alcohol on a clean optical cloth, then dry with a clean dry optical cloth and blow with filtered, compressed air. Do not use any other chemicals for cleaning.
