Condition TEACH Result Display
One valid reference surface is taught within
sensing range
Sets a dual (intensity + distance) window
centered around the taught reference surface.
The ± window size is the previously used
switching threshold, or 75% by default.
The switching threshold flashes on the display.
One reference surface is taught outside the
sensing range
Sets a dual (intensity + distance) window
centered around the taught reference surface
that is outside the sensing range. The sensing
conditions may not be as reliable.

One invalid TEACH Point No reference surface is taught, the output will
change when any object is detected.

3.7 Pulse Frequency Modulation (PFM) Output
The Q5X can generate pulses whose frequency are proportional to the sensor's measured distance, thereby providing a
method for representing an analog signal with only a discrete counter. The sensing range of the sensor is scaled from 100
to 600 Hz (100 Hz equals the near range limit of the sensor, 600 Hz equals the far sensing range limit). An output of 50 Hz
represents a Loss of Signal (
) condition where there is no target or the target is out of the sensor's range.
3.8 Sync Master/Slave
Two Q5X sensors may be used together in a single sensing application. To eliminate crosstalk between the two sensors,
configure one sensor to be the master and one to be the slave. In this mode, the sensors alternate taking measurements
and the response speed doubles.
