4. Kuweka
4.1 Kuweka
The QS30AFQ sensor can be mounted using standard mounting hardware (not included) through the integrated mounting holes. Ensure the sensor is securely fastened and positioned to provide an unobstructed view of the target area. The sensor's compact design allows for flexible mounting in various industrial setups.
Wiring
The sensor utilizes a 5-pin Euro-style Quick Disconnect (QD) connector. A compatible Euro-style QD cordset (not included) is required for connection. Refer to the wiring diagram on the sensor body (Figure 3.2) and the table below for proper connections.
| Rangi ya Pini/Waya | Kazi |
|---|---|
| Brown (bn) | 10-30 VDC Supply (+) |
| Bluu (bu) | 0 VDC Supply (-) |
| Nyeupe (wh) | Pato la NPN |
| Nyeusi (bk) | Pato la PNP |
| Grey (gy) | Ingizo la Kufundisha kwa Mbali |
Ensure all connections are secure and correctly polarized. The sensor supports bipolar (NPN and PNP) output, allowing flexibility in integration with various control systems.
5. Kufanya kazi
5.1 Kuwasha
Once wired correctly, apply 10-30 VDC power to the sensor. The sensor will power up and the 8-segment bar graph display will illuminate, indicating its operational status.
5.2 Tuning and Configuration
The QS30AFQ offers both automatic-teaching and manual tuning modes to set sensing thresholds.
- Automatic Teaching: This mode simplifies setup. To teach the background, ensure no object is in the sensing field and press and hold the '+' button (or activate the remote teach input) until the sensor indicates successful teaching (refer to the bar graph display for feedback). To teach the object, place the object in the desired sensing position and press and hold the '-' button (or activate the remote teach input) until the sensor indicates successful teaching.
- Manual Fine Tuning: After automatic teaching, or for precise adjustments, use the '+' and '-' buttons to manually fine-tune the sensing threshold. The 8-segment bar graph display provides visual feedback on the current threshold setting and signal strength.
Viashiria vya Hali
The 8-segment bar graph display on the side of the sensor provides real-time feedback on the sensor's operation:
- Segments 1-8: Indicate signal strength. More illuminated segments mean stronger signal.
- N.O. (Normally Open) / N.C. (Normally Closed) Indicators: Show the current state of the NPN and PNP outputs.
- Object / Background Indicators: Help visualize the taught thresholds for object and background detection.
6. Matengenezo
The Banner QS30AFQ sensor is designed for low maintenance. However, periodic checks can ensure optimal performance and longevity.
- Kusafisha: Regularly clean the sensor lens and housing with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid abrasive cleaners or solvents that could damage the thermoplastic material or lens.
- Ukaguzi: Periodically inspect the wiring and connector for any signs of wear, corrosion, or damage. Ensure the sensor is still securely mounted.
- Ukaguzi wa Mazingira: Verify that the operating environment remains within the specified temperature range (-10 to +55 degrees C) and that the IP67 rating is not compromised by excessive moisture or dust accumulation on the lens.
7. Utatuzi wa shida
If the sensor is not performing as expected, consider the following common issues and solutions:
- Hakuna Kiashiria cha Nguvu/Hakuna:
- Check power supply connections (10-30 VDC).
- Verify correct wiring of the Euro-style QD cordset.
- Erratic Sensing/False Triggers:
- Safisha lensi ya kihisi.
- Re-perform the automatic teaching procedure for background and object.
- Adjust the sensor's position or angle to minimize reflections from nearby surfaces.
- Check for ambient light interference; reposition or shield the sensor if necessary.
- Sensor Not Detecting Object:
- Ensure the object is within the 300 mm sensing range.
- Verify the object's reflectivity is sufficient for detection by a red LED sensor.
- Re-teach the object and background thresholds.
- Check for obstructions in the sensing path.
- Output Not Switching:
- Confirm the load connected to the NPN/PNP output is correctly wired and within the sensor's output current limits.
- Check the sensor's status indicators to ensure it is detecting the object as expected.
