## Class 2 Laser Description and Safety Information 

**==> picture [32 x 160] intentionally omitted <==**

- 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 man­ ufacturer. 

## 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. 

**==> picture [61 x 54] intentionally omitted <==**

## For Safe Laser Use - Class 2 Lasers 

- Do not stare at the laser. 

- • Do not point the laser at a person’s eye. • Mount open laser beam paths either above or below eye level, where practical. • Terminate the beam emitted by the laser product at the end of its useful path. 

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 pro­ tection under reasonably foreseeable conditions of operation, including the use of optical instruments for intrabeam viewing. 

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 to 700 nm). Therefore, an ocular hazard may exist only if individ­ uals overcome their natural aversion to bright light and stare directly into the laser beam.

## Chapter 2 

## Installation 

## Sensor Orientation 

Optimize detection reliability and minimum object separation performance with correct sensor-to-target orientation. To ensure reliable detection, orient the sensor as shown in relation to the target to be detected. 

## Optimal Orientation of Target to Sensor 

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 re­ quired for each case, refer to "Typical Performance Curves" on page 43.

## Cleaning and Maintenance 

## Clean the sensor when soiled and use with care. 

Handle the sensor with care during installation and operation. Sensor windows soiled by fingerprints, dust, water, oil, etc. may 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. 

> (1) Applying tilt to sensor may improve performance on reflective targets. The direction and magnitude of the tilt depends on the application, but a 15° tilt is often sufficient.

## Sensor Programming 

Program the sensor using the buttons on the sensor or the remote input (limited programming options). 

In addition to programming the sensor, use the remote input to disable the buttons for security, preventing unauthorized or accidental programming changes. See "Locking and Unlocking the Sensor Buttons" on page 36 for more information. 

## Channel 1 and Channel 2 (CH1/CH2) 

Press CH1/CH2 button to switch between Channel 1 and Channel 2. 

Within each channel, there are options specific to that channel. For settings that are common to both channels, the menus are only available in Channel 1. The default is Channel 1. 

## To switch between Channel 1 and Channel 2: 

1. Press and hold CH1/CH2 for longer than 2 seconds. The current selection displays. 

2. Press CH1/CH2 again. The new selection flashes slowly. 

3. Press SELECT to change the Channel and return to Run mode. 

If neither SELECT nor CH1/CH2 are pressed after step 2, the new selection flashes slowly for a few seconds, then flashes quickly and the sensor automatically changes the Channel and returns to Run mode. 

## Setup Mode 

Access Setup mode and the sensor menu from Run mode by pressing and holding MODE for longer than 2 seconds. Use + and - to navigate through the menu. Press SELECT to select a menu option and access the submenus. Use + and - to navigate through the submenus. Press SELECT to select a submenu option and return to the top menu, or press and hold SELECT for longer than 2 seconds to select a submenu option and return immediately to Run mode. 

To exit Setup mode and return to Run mode, navigate to End and press SELECT . 

The number that follows a menu option, for example tch1 , indicates the channel that is selected. For menu items without a number (excluding submenu items), these menu options are only available from Channel 1 and the settings apply to both channels.

5. Teach the sensor at the 10 V (20 mA) distance. 

Method Action Result Push Button Press TEACH to teach the target. The new switch point flashes rapidly T and the sensor returns to Run mode. Remote Input Single­pulse the remote input. 

If the same target is taught both times, Lo and SPAn flash alternately on the display, the 10 V (20 mA) value is automatically adjusted to maintain the minimum window size, the new distance quickly flashes four times, and the sensor returns to Run mode. 

It is possible to skip teaching the 0 V (4mA) and/or the 10 V (20mA) point and continue to use the existing setting. At the ap­ plicable teach step, when using the push button, hold - for four seconds. The sensor displays SAVE and then flashes the ex­ isting value. When using the remote input, double­pulse the remote input. 

## One­Point (1­PT) TEACH (Channel 1 Only) 

One-point TEACH mode defines the span of the analog output. One-point TEACH also defines the 5 V (12 mA) midpoint of the analog output to center the analog output around a reference target position.

The Range advanced measurement behavior is affected by the Loss of Signal option. For additional information on ad­ vanced measurements, see "Trigger (trG)" on page 25. The Range advanced measurement tracks a maximum and a mini­ mum during the measurement period, and calculates the range as follows: 

Range = maximum distance – minimum distance 

If the maximum and/or minimum measurements are outside of the taught range values, the Loss of Signal option determines how the range is calculated.

The number that follows out on the display indicates which channel is selected. 

The Output 2 menu is available in Channel 2. Use this menu to select light operate (LO) or dark operate (DO). The default output configuration is light operate. To switch between light operate and dark operate, select the desired menu option. 

- Lo —Light operate 

- do —Dark operate 

## Adaptive Tracking (trc2) 

In adaptive tracking mode, the laser intensity changes to compensate for a loss in excess gain - normally caused by a dirty lens. 

When operating in Dual Mode, the Adaptive Tracking Algorithm adjusts the switching thresholds (distance and intensity) around a taught reference surface. Adaptive tracking adjusts for small variations in the reference surface to maintain a con­ sistent 100P (100%) on the display and to ensure reliable detection. The Adaptive Tracking menu is only available when Teach Ch2 is set to Dual Mode. 

Adjustment of the thresholds only occurs when the reference surface is visible to the senor (that is, no target is present). The Adaptive Tracking Algorithm can reduce or eliminate the need to periodically re-teach the sensor as environmental conditions change around the sensor. 

Enable or disable the Adaptive Tracking Algorithm from the sensor menu. The appropriate speed depends on the application. This menu is available only if Dual Mode is selected. For Channel 2, the output must be set to light operate or dark operate. 

- HS —High­Speed Adaptive Tracking On 

- on —Adaptive Tracking On 

- oFF —Adaptive Tracking Off (default) 

OFF disables the Adaptive Tracking Algorithm —Prevents the sensor from adjusting the thresholds around the taught refer­ ence surface while the sensor is in dual mode. The sensor will not adapt to or learn any target. Environmental changes may cause the displayed value to deviate from 100P (100%) over time. A periodic re­teach of the reference surface may be re­ quired to restore the displayed value to 100P if this is important to the application. 

There are some cases in which disabling adaptive tracking is useful. For example, disable adaptive tracking if the target passes very slowly through the sensing beam, if the target might stop while partially blocking the beam, and if the environ­ mental conditions are stable.

Q5X Laser Triangulation Sensor With Analog Outputs And IO-Link Instruction Manual 

**==> picture [57 x 57] intentionally omitted <==**

ON enables the Adaptive Tracking Algorithm at the standard speed —Recommended for many applications detecting low contrast targets. Standard adaptive tracking adjusts the thresholds around slowly changing background and environmental conditions. It adjusts the sensor for stable detection when the environment changes due to gradual dust accumulation, ma­ chine vibration, or ambient temperature changes which influence the signal from the reference surface. Standard adaptive tracking will not easily adapt to or learn slow moving, low contrast targets (for example, clear targets entering and exiting the beam over approximately 2 seconds). 

HS enables the Adaptive Tracking Algorithm at high speed —Optional adaptive tracking setting used with dual mode. Use high speed adaptive tracking when the signal from the reference surface changes quickly due to unstable environmental con­ ditions and high contrast and high­speed targets are being detected. High speed adaptive tracking adjusts the sensor for sta­ ble detection in challenging environmental conditions such as dust accumulation, machine vibration, ambient temperature changes, or a non-stable reference surface (for example, a running belt or web which influences the signal from the reference surface). For example, if the signal from the reference surface changes by 10% due to environmental effects, high speed adaptive tracking adjusts the displayed value back to 100P (100%) over 2 to 3 seconds. 

High speed adaptive tracking addresses certain applications where the reference surface is not stable, but the sensor must detect high speed and high contrast targets reliably. With high speed adaptive tracking there is the potential for the sensor to adapt the thresholds to slow moving or low contrast targets, leading to missed detection events. If the detection events are generating small signal changes of similar magnitude to the background changes, detection problems are likely. Stabilize the reference surface to avoid this problem. 

## Window Size (und2) 

Use this menu to manually set a window size for subsequent TEACH operations. This menu is available only if one­point win­ dow (foreground suppression) mode is selected. 

The default selection is Auto, where the foreground suppression (FGS) window size is automatically calculated. 

This setting is automatically applied during any subsequent teach operation. The window size value represents a ±cm value, so the total window size is twice this value. For example, a window set of 10 cm gives a 20 cm window centered around the taught point. The window size can also be changed directly from Run mode after changing the setting to any value except Auto. For Channel 2, the output must be set to light operate or dark operate. 

Values : 0.1 cm to 291 cm 

## Base Measurement Rate (SPd) 

Use this setting to select the base measurement rate. Excess gain will be affected by the response speed as shown. The to­ tal response speed depends upon the base measurement rate setting and the averaging setting. 

See "Averaging " on page 28 for more information.

## Averaging 

Use the Averaging AUG menu to set the number of measurements that are averaged together for the analog output. 

Increasing the averaging improves repeatability, but increases the total response speed. The default is 16. The filter can be set to 1, 2, 4, 8, 16, 32, 64, 128, 256, or 512. Use the table to determine the total response speed.

When one of the timing delay options is chosen, the sensor returns to the Setup menu and additional options become avail­ able to set the parameter(s): 

dLAY ond —On delay oFd —Off delay 

totL 

dt2 —Output duration tot2 —Number of counts before an output change 

1Sho dt2 —One­shot delay timer For the one-shot delay timer: LO = On pulse when a target is detected inside of the switch point(s) DO = On pulse when a target is detected outside of the switch point(s) 

## Delay Timers 

Use these menus to set the delay timers. These menus are available only if an output timing delay is selected. 

For ond and oFd , the default is 0. 

For dt2 , the default is 10 milliseconds for all response speeds. 

Use + and - to scroll through the values. Millisecond values do not include the decimal point; seconds values include the dec­ imal point. 

Value : 1 ms to 90 s or 10 ms to 90 s, depending on response speed setting. 

## Totalizer (totL) 

The totalizer function changes the output only after counting a designated number of targets. 

After selecting this function, dt2 becomes available to define the output duration and tot2 to define required number of counts before the output changes. 

For tot2 , the default is 1 count and the maximum is 9999 counts. 

For dt2 , the default is 10 milliseconds. Use + and - to scroll through the values. Values in millisecond do not include the deci­ mal point; values in seconds include the decimal point. 

Values include 1 ms to 90 s or 10 ms to 90 s, depending on the response speed setting. 

From Run mode, press SELECT to change the display to show the current totalizer count. Pressing SELECT again changes the display back to the measured distance. 

The totalizer count automatically resets after re­teaching the switch point distance or turning the sensor off.

## Hysteresis (hYS2) 

Use this menu to set the hysteresis distance around the switch point. 

Auto (The sensor automatically selects a recommended minimum hysteresis distance relative to the current switch point dis­ tance) to 300 (enter a user­selectable value (cm) of hysteresis distance relative to the current switch point distance). 

Set Distance —The distance from the reference surface that allows stable use, including the effects of temperature and volt­ age, to the (standard) sensing object transit position. This is approximately 70% to 80% of the normal (rated) sensing dis­ tance.

Smaller hysteresis values cause the output to switch state with less differential travel. A larger hysteresis value makes the output state to remain unchanged with larger differential travel. Negative hysteresis values allow the operator to move the hysteresis to either side of the switch point. 

## Zero Reference Location (ZEro) 

Use this menu to select the zero­reference location. Changing the zero­reference location only affects the readout on the dis­ play and does not affect the output. 

The default is nEAr , 0 = the front of the sensor. This menu is not available in dual (intensity + distance) mode.

- —0 is the front of the sensor and the measurement increases further from the sensor. 

- —0 is the maximum range and the measurement increases closer to the sensor. 

## Shift the Zero Reference Location after a TEACH (ShFt) 

Use this menu to select whether the sensor shifts the zero­reference location based on the last TEACH process. 

The default is oFF , 0 = the front of the sensor or the maximum range. This menu is not available in dual (intensity + distance) mode. 

- —Shift the zero­reference location to one of the taught positions with each TEACH 

- —0 = the front of the sensor or the maximum range, depending on the ZEro setting 

This figure illustrates three examples of how changes to the zero and shift settings affect what distance readout is shown on the display when in 2­pt TEACH mode. Changes to the zero setting affect the direction in which the distance increases. Shift­ ing the zero reference location only affects the readout on the display and does not affect the output.

## Offset (oFS1 or oFS2) 

Use this menu to set an offset from the taught surface during a TEACH procedure. This menu is available only if one-point window (foreground suppression) mode or one­point background suppression mode is selected. 

For Channel 2, the output must be set to light operate or dark operate. 

The number that follows on the display indicates which channel is selected. 

The offset is automatically calculated or manually defined as a consistently applied value. Auto is the default option. Use +/­ to select a value. Values increase or decrease by up to 291 cm for 3000 mm models. 

For BGS mode, the default is Auto because the Q5X automatically selects where to position the switch point. For FGS mode, the default is 0 because the window is centered around the taught target. 

A positive offset value always shifts the switch point location or the FGS window towards the sensor. 

The taught surface must be inside of the defined sensing range. When the teach mode is set to FGS, some portion of the window must be located within the sensing range. When the teach mode is set to BGS, the offset value must be within the defined sensing range. If an offset value falls outside of the sensing range, a message displays. See the applicable TEACH procedure for more information. 

## Display View (diSP) 

Use this menu to select the display view. 

When the sensor is in sleep mode, the display wakes with the first button press. 

—Normal (default setting). When 1234 is inverted, the display is in inverted view model (rotated 180°). 

—Normal and the display enters sleep mode after 60 seconds. When oFF is inverted, the display view is inverted (ro­ tated 180°) and the display enters sleep mode after 60 seconds. 

## Units (unIt) 

Use this menu to set the displayed units to centimeters (cm), inches ("), millimeters (mm). 

cñ —centimeter (with a decimal point at < 60 centimeters) 

in —inch (with a decimal point at < 24 inches) 

ññ — millimeter 

## Output Type Polarity (PoL) 

Use this menu to select the output polarity. 

dEF (Default)—Push­Pull IO­Link on pin 4 

PnP —Solid state PNP on pin 4 

nPn —Solid state NPN on pin 4 

## Exit Setup Mode (End) 

Use this menu to end Setup mode. 

Navigate to End and press SELECT to exit Setup mode and return to Run mode. 

## Reset to Factory Defaults 

Use this menu to restore the sensor to the factory default settings. 

—Select to return to the sensor menu without restoring the defaults. 

- —Select to apply the factory defaults and return to Run mode.

## 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 re­ turns to Run mode. 

**NOTE:** When FGS mode is selected, 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, 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 ad­ justment does not move the taught reference point, but pressing **+** increases the sensitivity, and pressing **-** decreases the sensitivity. When re­positioning the sensor or changing the reference target, re­teach the sensor. 

## Remote Input

## Sync Master/Slave 

Two Q5X sensors may be used together in a single sensing application. To eliminate crosstalk between the two sensors, configure one sensor to be the master and one to be the slave. In this mode, the sensors alternate taking measurements and the response speed doubles. 

The master sensor and the slave sensor must be programmed for the same Response Speed and Gain and Sensitivity set­ tings. The master sensor and slave sensor must share a common power source. 

1. Configure the first sensor as the master; navigate: inPt › nASt . 

2. Configure the second sensor as the slave; navigate: inPt › SLUE . 

3. Connect the gray wires of the two sensors together.

## Chapter 4 

## IO-Link Interface 

IO-Link 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 IO­Link protocol and specifications, see www.io-link.com. 

Each IO­Link device has an IODD (IO Device Description) file that contains information about the manufacturer, article num­ ber, functionality etc. This information can be easily read and processed by the user. Each device can be unambiguously identified via the IODD as well as via an internal device ID. Download the Q5X's IO­Link IODD package (p/n 215345) from Banner Engineering's website at www.bannerengineering.com. 

Banner has also developed Add On Instruction (AOI) files to simplify ease­of­use between the Q5X, multiple third­party ven­ dors' 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 IO­Link 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 IO­Link Master AOI. The job of a Parameter Data AOI, when working in conjunction with the IO­Link Master AOI, is to provide quasi­realtime read/write access to all IO­Link para­ meter 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 IO­Link Master AOI is to translate the desired IO­Link read/write requests, made by the Parameter Data AOI, into the format a specif­ ic IO­Link Master requires. Each IO­Link Master AOI is customized for a given brand of IO­Link Master. 

Add and configure the relevant Banner IO-Link Master AOI in your ladder logic program first; then add and configure Banner IO­Link Device AOIs as desired, linking them to the Master AOI as shown in the relevant AOI documentation.

## Additional Information 

## Dual (Intensity + Distance) Mode 

Dual TEACH mode, dual intensity + distance window, expands the applications the Q5X can solve by combining distance­ based detection with light intensity thresholds. 

In background suppression (DYN, 1­pt, 2­pt) and foreground suppression (FGS) TEACH modes, the Q5X sensor compares changes in the measured distance between the sensor and target to control the output state. In dual TEACH mode, the user teaches the Q5X a fixed reference surface, and the sensor compares intensity and distance readings against the reference surface it was taught. After teaching the reference target, the displayed value is calibrated to 100P, or a 100% match. When an object enters the sensor’s field of view, the degree of consistency with the reference surface becomes lower and causes a change in sensor output. 

In dual mode, you can detect when the target is present at the right distance and when it returns the right amount of light. This is useful in error-proofing applications where you need to know not only that the part is present (distance), but also that it is the correct part (intensity). 

In dual mode, the Q5X requires a reference surface (far left). Once taught, the distance and intensity of the reference surface are recorded and used as a baseline. A user-adjustable switching threshold is set, and changes in distance and/or intensity outside the switching threshold creates a sensor output change. The example uses a 90% (90P) match condition with a 10% change in intensity and/or distance from the reference surface required to change the output state. The default-switching threshold is a 50% match to the reference condition (50P); this sets the threshold 50% from the distance and intensity of the reference surface. A transparent object can be detected either by a change in intensity, distance, or by a double peak reflec­ tion (far right).

The Q5X sensor can be taught non­ideal reference surfaces, such as surfaces outside of the sensor’s range, very dark sur­ faces, or even empty space. These situations may enable applications requiring a long range detection but are subject to typ­ ical diffuse mode detection challenges.

## Dual Mode Reference Surface Considerations 

Optimize reliable detection by applying these principles when selecting your reference surface, positioning your sensor rela­ tive to the reference surface, and presenting your target. 

The robust detection capabilities of the Q5X allows successful detection even under non­ideal conditions in many cases. Typ­ ical reference surfaces are metal machine frames, conveyor side rails, or mounted plastic targets. Contact Banner Engineer­ ing if you require assistance setting up a stable reference surface in your application. 

1. Select a reference surface with these characteristics where possible: 

   - Matte or diffuse surface finish 

   - Fixed surface with no vibration 

   - ◦ Dry surface with no build­up 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. 

## Dual Mode Considerations for Clear and Transparent Object Detection 

The Q5X is able to detect the very small changes caused by transparent and clear objects. A transparent object can be de­ tected either by a change in intensity, distance, or by a double­peak reflection. 

The Q5X sensor can be taught non­ideal reference surfaces, such as surfaces outside of the sensor range or very dark sur­ faces. Teaching non-ideal reference surfaces may enable applications other than transparent or clear object detection, but best results for transparent or clear object detection require a stable reference surface. 

The display shows the match percentage to the taught reference point. The user adjustable switch point defines the sensitivi­ ty and the output switches when the match percentage to the reference point crosses the switch point. Your specific applica­ tion may require fine tuning of the switch point, but these values are the recommended starting values:
