Cascading configuration
(group 7)
Index 73, bit offset 56
= 1
Cascading: active
Note: With cascading operation, the master must also be set to 1 (active)!
Index 73, bit offset 48
= 1
Function type: master - sends trigger signal
Index 73, bit offset 32
Master cycle time: total cycle time of all light curtains (LC1+LC2+LC3)
Duration of a TRIGGER cycle in ms
