BEAM detects an object, person etc crossing its path and outputs a pulse of DMX. It is used as a DMX input to a control surface such as an MA or Pharos to serve as an input to an interactive system. Each system has four inputs and comes with four sensors and reflectors.
Mount the reflectors opposite the receivers for maximum range (up to 6M!) as the beam is broken the DMX channel will go to full for the defined length of time. There is then a lockout time where re triggering cannot occur. This stops double triggering on a pair of legs etc.
