TEACH-Mode Programming

Printed in USA 06/01 P/N 67417

L-GAGE Q50A Complementary Discrete Output Sensor Features

• Cost-effective LED-based complementary-discrete sensor

• Fast, easy-to-use TEACH-Mode programming; no potentiometer adjustments

• Models available with either 4 or 48 millisecond response speed

• Models available with either visible red or infrared beam

• Teach a sensing window (2 switch points) or teach single switch point

(adjustable field mode)

• Two sensing ranges, depending on model: 50 to 150 mm (visible red beam

models), and 50 to 200 mm (infrared beam models)

• Good color sensitivity

• Remote TEACH input for security and convenience

• Two bicolor Status LEDs

• Choose 2 meter or 9 meter unterminated cable, or swivel 5-pin Euro-style QD

connector

• Rugged construction withstands demanding sensing environments; rated IEC IP67,

NEMA 6

L-GAGE Q50A – Complementary Discrete Output Sensor Sensor Overview The Q50A Complementary Discrete is an easy-to-use triangulation sensor which provides a sophisticated, yet costeffective solution for demanding applications. Q50A Series sensors feature compact, all-in-one design and require no separate controller. Each sensor has two discrete outputs (both NPN or both PNP).

L-GAGE Q50A – Complementary Discrete Output Sensor Push-Button Procedure for Teaching a Single Sensing Set Point (Complementary Outputs – Adjustable-Field Style) The black wire conducts when the target is inside the programmed set point. The white wire conducts when the target is outside (away from) the set point (see Figure 7). 1. Press and hold the Teach push button until the Teach LED turns Red (depress button for approximately 2 seconds). 2. Position the target at the sensing set point.

L-GAGE Q50A – Complementary Discrete Output Sensor Installation Notes Some targets (those with a stepped plane facing the sensor, a boundary line, or rounded targets) pose specific problems for sensing distances. For such applications, see Figure 8 for suggested mounting orientations. Recommended NOT Recommended Figure 8.
