Q4X Stainless Steel Laser Sensor with Dual
Discrete Outputs and IO-Link
Quick Start Guide
Class 1 laser CMOS sensor with dual outputs and IO-Link. Patent pending.
This guide is designed to help you set up and install the Q4X Sensor with Dual Discrete Outputs and IO-Link. For complete information on
programming, performance, troubleshooting, dimensions, and accessories, please refer to the Instruction Manual at www.bannerengineering.com.
Search for p/n 190074 to view the Instruction Manual. Use of this document assumes familiarity with pertinent industry standards and practices.
For illustration purposes, the threaded barrel model Q4X images are used throughout this document.
WARNING:
• Do not use this device for personnel protection
• Using this device for personnel protection could result in serious injury or death.
• This device does not include the self-checking redundant circuitry necessary to allow its use in personnel safety
applications. A device failure or malfunction can cause either an energized (on) or de-energized (off) output condition.

Display and Indicators
The display is a 4-digit, 7-segment LED. The main screen is the Run mode screen.
For 2-pt, BGS, FGS, and DYN TEACH modes, the display shows the current distance to the target in millimeters. For dual TEACH mode, the display
shows the percentage matched to the taught reference surface. A display value of

Note: The indicators represent the currently selected channel. However, if Output 2 is set to something other than LO, DO, or
Complementary, then the indicators represent the Channel 1 status.
Output Indicator
• On—Output is on
• Off—Output is off
Stability Indicator (STB)
• On—Stable signal within the specified sensing range
• Flashing—Marginal signal, the target is outside the limits of the
specified sensing range, or a multiple peak condition exists
• Off—No target detected within the specified sensing range
Buttons
Use the sensor buttons (SELECT)(TEACH), (+)(CH1/CH2), and (-)(MODE) to program the sensor.

    See the following figures for examples of correct and incorrect sensor-to-target orientation as certain placements may pose problems for sensing Performance Curves for some targets. The Q4X can be used in the less preferred orientation and provide reliable detection performance; refer to the the minimum object separation distance required for each case.

    Q4X Stainless Steel Laser Sensor with Dual Discrete Outputs and IO-Link • 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 11 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.

    Optimize reliable detection by applying these principals when selecting your reference surface, positioning your sensor relative to the reference surface, and presenting your target. The robust detection capabilities of the Q4X 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.
