Q4X Stainless Steel Analog Laser Sensor

Sensor Orientation

Optimize detection reliability and performance with correct sensor-to-target orientation. To ensure reliable detection,
orient the sensor as shown in relation to the target to be detected.
See the following figures for examples of correct and incorrect sensor-to-target orientation as certain placements may
pose problems for sensing some targets.

Mount the Sensor

1. If a bracket is needed, mount the sensor onto the bracket.
2. Mount the sensor (or the sensor and the bracket) to the machine or equipment at the desired location. Do not tighten
the mounting screws at this time.
3. Check the sensor alignment.
4. Tighten the mounting screws to secure the sensor (or the sensor and the bracket) in the aligned position.
