Q45BB6 Series Indicators and Controls
Status indicator LEDs for Power, Signal and Output are clearly visible
beneath a raised dome in the sensor’s transparent o-ring-sealed Lexan
®
cover. The Power indicator lights whenever power is applied to the sensor.
The Signal LED lights whenever the sensor sees its modulated light
source, and pulses at a rate proportional to the strength of the received
light signal; this is the AID™ Alignment Indicating Device*. The Output
indicator lights whenever the sensor’s output is conducting. This indicator
is especially useful when a timing logic module is used and Signal and
Output conditions are not concurrent.
Also located beneath the sensor’s o-ring-sealed cover are controls for
light/dark operate selection and Sensitivity adjustment.

Q45BB6 Series Hookups
Quick Disconnect (QD) Option
DC Q45BB6 Series sensors are sold with either a 2 m (6.5') or a 9 m (30') PVC-covered unterminated cable, or with a 4-pin
Mini-style or 4-pin Euro-style Quick-Disconnect (QD) cable fitting.
Mini-style QD sensors are identified by the suffix “Q” in their model number and 4-pin Euro-style sensors are identified by the
suffix “Q5”. Mating cables required for QD Q45BB6 sensors are specified on page 10.
