Q3X Laser Contrast Sensor
2 Installation
2.1 Install the Safety Label
The safety label must be installed on Q3X sensors that are used in the United
States.
Note: Position the label on the cable in a location that has minimal
chemical exposure.
1. Remove the protective cover from the adhesive on the label.
2. Wrap the label around the Q3X cable, as shown.
3. Press the two halves of the label together.
2.2 Sensor Orientation
Correct sensor-to-target orientation is important to ensure proper
sensing. To ensure reliable detection, orient the sensor as shown in
relation to the target to be detected.
For models with background suppression, make sure the intended target
is inside of the contrast sensing range and that any background objects
are positioned beyond the background suppression distance.

2.4 Sensor Mounting
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 at this
time.
3. Check the sensor alignment.
4. Tighten the screws to secure the sensor (or the sensor and the bracket) in the aligned position.
