**QS30 Series Diffuse-Mode Laser Sensor** 

## ~~**QS30 Laser Overview**~~ 

The QS30 is an easy-to-use, high-performance laser sensor whose many configuration options make it suitable for demanding applications. It provides high-performance sensing in low-contrast applications at relatively long range. It features static, dynamic and single-point TEACH-mode programming, in addition to manual fine adjustment, remote programming and security lockout options. A SETUP mode also may be used to change the sensor’s output response (see page 8). 

The sensor features two identically configured outputs, one each NPN and PNP. 

The sensor’s compact housing has a large, easy-to-see bar graph display plus bright LEDs for easy programming and status monitoring during operation. The sensor can be side-mounted, using its integral mounting holes, or frontmounted, via its 30 mm threaded barrel.

**QS30 Series Diffuse-Mode Laser Sensor** 

## ~~**Description of Laser Classes**~~ 

**==> picture [137 x 185] intentionally omitted <==**

## **Class 1** 

Lasers that are safe under reasonably foreseeable conditions of operation, including the use of optical instruments for intrabeam viewing. Reference 60825-1 Amend. 2 © IEC:2001(E), section 8.2. 

## **Class 2** 

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. Reference 60825-1 Amend. 2 © IEC:2001(E), section 8.2. 

## **Class 2 Laser Safety Notes:** 

Low-power lasers are, by definition, incapable of causing eye injury within the duration of the blink (aversion response) of 0.25 seconds. They also must emit only visible wavelengths (400 - 700 nm). Therefore, an ocular hazard can exist only if an individual overcomes their natural aversion to bright light and stares directly into the laser beam. 

## **For safe laser use:** 

- Do not permit a person to stare at the laser from within the beam. 

- Do not point the laser at a person’s eye at close range. 

- Terminate the beam emitted by a Class 2 laser product at the end of its useful path. Locate open laser beam paths either above or below eye level, where practical.

## **CAUTION** 

Use of controls or adjustments or performance of procedures other than those specified herein may result in hazardous radiation exposure; per EN 60825. **Do NOT attempt to disassemble this sensor for repair.** A defective unit must be returned to the manufacturer.

**QS30 Series Diffuse-Mode Laser Sensor** 

## ~~**Sensor Programming**~~ 

Sensor configuration is accomplished through TEACH-mode programming and SETUP mode. After TEACH mode has defined the sensing parameters, SETUP mode may be used to add an OFF-delay or change the light/dark operate status. Manual Adjust may be used to fine-tune the thresholds (see page 7). Two push buttons, Dynamic (+) and Static (-), or the remote wire, may be used to access and set programming parameters. 

Sensor programming may be accomplished using any of three TEACH methods. A single switching threshold may be programmed using either dynamic (on-the-fly) or static TEACH. In addition, Single-Point Static TEACH may be used to define a sensing window, centered on a single taught condition. Single-Point TEACH programming may be accomplished only statically. 

## ~~**Remote Programming**~~ 

The Remote Programming function may be used to program the sensor remotely or to disable the push buttons for security. Connect the gray wire of the sensor to ground (0V dc), with a remote programming switch connected between them. Pulse the remote line according to the diagrams in the programming procedures. The length of the individual programming pulses is equal to the value T: 

## **0.04 seconds** ≤ **T** ≤ **0.8 seconds** 

## ~~**Returning to RUN Mode**~~ 

TEACH and SETUP modes each may be exited either after the 60-second time-out, or by exiting (cancelling out of) the process: 

- In Static TEACH mode, press and hold the Static (-) button (or hold the remote line) for 2 seconds to exit. The sensor returns to RUN mode without saving any new settings. 

- In SETUP mode, press and hold both the Static (-) and Dynamic (+) buttons (or hold the remote line) for 2 seconds to exit. The sensor returns to RUN mode and saves the current setting.

**QS30 Series Diffuse-Mode Laser Sensor** 

## ~~**Dynamic TEACH and Adaptive Thresholds**~~ 

- Teach on-the-fly 

- Sets a single switching threshold 

- Threshold position is adjustable using  “+” and  “-” buttons (Manual Adjust) 

Dynamic TEACH is best used when a machine or process may not be stopped for teaching. A variation of two-point TEACH, it programs the sensor during actual machine run conditions, taking multiple samples of the light and dark conditions and automatically setting the threshold at the optimum level (see Figure 3). 

Dynamic TEACH activates the sensor’s adaptive threshold system, which continuously tracks minimum and maximum signal levels, and automatically maintains centering of the switch point between the light and dark conditions. The adaptive threshold system remains in effect during RUN mode. The adaptive routine saves to non-volatile memory at least once per hour. 

When Dynamic TEACH mode is used, the Output ON state (light or dark operate) will remain as it was last programmed. To change the Output ON state, use SETUP mode (see page 8). 

The sensing set point may be adjusted (fine-tuned) whenever the sensor is in RUN mode by clicking the “+” and “-” buttons. However, when a manual adjustment is made, the adaptive threshold system is disabled (cancelled).

## ~~**Single-Point Static TEACH (Sensing Window)**~~ 

- Sets a single ON condition 

- All other conditions (lighter or darker) result in OFF output 

- Sensing window size (sensitivity) is adjustable using  “+” and  “-” buttons (Manual Adjust) 

Single-Point TEACH is most useful when a product may not always appear in the same place, or when other signals may appear. Single-Point TEACH programs a sensing window, with the Output ON condition inside the window, and the Output OFF conditions outside the window (see Figure 4). Output ON and OFF conditions can be reversed by changing Light/Dark Operate status in SETUP mode. 

Single-Point TEACH programming may be accomplished only using Static TEACH. The sensor learns a single sensing condition, and adds switching thresholds above and below the taught condition to create a sensing window. 

## **Single-Point TEACH and Manual Adjust** 

Using Manual Adjust with Single-Point TEACH expands or contracts the size of the window. The lighted LEDs on the light bar separate to a greater or lesser extent to exhibit the relative sensing window size.

**QS30 Series Diffuse-Mode Laser Sensor** 

## ~~**SETUP Mode**~~ 

SETUP mode is used to change sensor output response for: 

- Light or Dark operate 

- 30-millisecond pulse stretcher (OFF delay), if required. 

The status LEDs, active only during SETUP mode, indicate the output response configuration when the sensor will be in RUN mode. Four combinations are possible: 

- Light Operate, No Delay Dark Operate, No Delay Dark Operate, 30 ms Delay Light Operate, 30 ms Delay 

## **To access SETUP mode and change the output response settings:** 

**==> picture [167 x 178] intentionally omitted <==**

**----- Start of picture text -----**<br>
Press and<br>hold<br>both push<br>buttons<br>to access<br>SETUP<br>SETUP<br>mode<br>Status<br>Indicators {<br>**----- End of picture text -----**<br>


**Figure 5. SETUP mode** 

- 1) Press and hold BOTH push buttons (or double-pulse Remote line) until the green LED indicator turns OFF. 

- 2) Click EITHER push button (or pulse Remote line) to toggle through the four possible setting combinations. 

- 3) Press and hold both push buttons (or hold Remote line) until the green LED indicator turns ON, indicating return to RUN mode. 

- NOTES: • If SETUP mode programming is interrupted and remains inactive for 60 seconds, the sensor returns to RUN mode with the most recent settings (i.e., exits and saves current selection). 

   - SETUP mode operates in the “background”, while the outputs are active. 

## ~~**Manual Adjust**~~ 

Use during RUN mode, accomplished via push buttons only. 

## **Two-Point TEACH (Static or Dynamic):** 

- Fine-tunes sensing threshold set-point value 

- Press “+” to increase; press “-” to decrease 

## **Single-Point TEACH:** 

- Adjusts sensing window size (tolerance) for the single-point target condition 

- Press “+” to increase; press “-” to decrease 

The lighted bargraph LEDs move to reflect the increase or decrease. 

## ~~**Push Button Disable**~~ 

In addition to its programming function, Remote Programming may be used to disable the push buttons for security. Disabling the push buttons prevents undesired tampering with the programming settings. Connect the gray wire of the sensor as described on page 4, and four-pulse to either enable or disable the push buttons:
