Q5X with Dual Discrete Outputs and IO-Link Quick Start Guide
Dual Mode Reference Surface Considerations
Optimize reliable detection by applying these principles when selecting your reference surface, positioning your sensor relative to the refer
ence surface, and presenting your target.
The robust detection capabilities of the
Q5X
allows successful detection even under nonideal 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
