Class 2 Laser Description and Safety Information
Read the following safety information for proper use of a Class 2 laser.
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.
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.
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 protection 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 individuals
overcome their natural aversion to bright light and stare directly into the laser beam.

Installation
Sensor Orientation for the Triangulation Models
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.
Figure 6. 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 required for each
case, refer to .

Mount the Device
1. If a bracket is needed, mount the device onto the bracket.
2. Mount the device (or the device and the bracket) to the machine or equipment at the desired location. Do not tighten the
mounting screws at this time.
1Applying 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.

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 Dual Mode Reference Surface Considerations on page 14 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.
Note: When the sensor is in either or mode, the active channel can be changed using (+)(CH1/
CH2).
When in mode, displays when the (SELECT)(TEACH) button is pressed. The switch point displays when (+)(CH1/
CH2) or (-)(MODE) are pressed, but displays if the buttons are pressed and held.

P/N 208795 Rev. G www.bannerengineering.com - Tel: + 1 888 373 6767 9

When in mode, 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 mode, hold and press four times. To enter mode, hold and press seven times. Holding
and pressing four times unlocks the sensor from either lock mode and the sensor displays .

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.
