Dual Mode Reference Surface Considerations
Optimize reliable detection by applying these principles when selecting your reference surface, positioning your sensor relative to the
reference surface, and presenting your target.
The robust detection capabilities of the Q5X 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.
For detailed instructions for detecting clear or transparent objects, refer to the Instruction Manual, p/n 218902.
1.
Select a reference surface with these characteristics where possible:
◦
Matte or diffuse surface finish
◦
Fixed surface with no vibration
◦
Dry surface with no build-up of oil, water, or dust
2.
Position the reference surface between 200 mm (20 cm) and the maximum sensing range.
3.
Position the target to be detected as close to the sensor as possible, and as far away from the reference surface as possible.
4.
Angle the sensing beam relative to the target and relative to the reference surface 10 degrees or more.
