1 Product Description
Class 2 laser CMOS sensor with dual outputs and IO-Link. Patent pending.
• Laser triangulation sensor with a range from 95 mm to 2000 mm (9.5 cm to 200 cm)
• Bright output indicators and real-time distance feedback provide easy set up and
troubleshooting for reduced installation costs
• Exceptionally high excess gain enables the sensor to reliably detect the darkest
objects (< 6% reflective black targets), including black targets against a black
background, black targets against a shiny metal background, clear and reflective
objects, multicolor packaging, and targets of all colors
• Dual independent output channels and communication over IO-Link
• Optional Remote Sensor Display (RSD) (available separately) enables remote
programming and monitoring
WARNING: Not To Be Used for Personnel Protection
Never use this device as a sensing device for personnel protection. Doing so could lead to serious injury
or death. This device does not include the self-checking redundant circuitry necessary to allow its use in
personnel safety applications. A sensor failure or malfunction can cause either an energized or de-
energized sensor output condition.

1.2 Overview
The Q5X Laser Triangulation Sensor with Background Suppression is a Class 2 laser CMOS sensor with an IO-Link and
multifunction input and output.
The normal sensor state is Run mode. From Run mode, users may change the switch point value and channel selection and
perform the selected TEACH method.
The secondary sensor state is Setup mode. From Setup mode, users may select the TEACH mode, adjust all standard
operating parameters, and perform a factory reset.
1.3 Laser Description and Safety Information
CAUTION: 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.
1.3 Class 2 Laser Models
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.
