Inverted smoothing
Inverted smoothing can suppress interference near the edges of objects, since uninterrupted beams are
not evaluated until the set number is reached.
With inverted smoothing it is possible to detect, e.g., only successive openings of a certain minimum size
within a web.
For an example configuration, see chapter 15.5.

Cascading/triggering
If the measurement field length of a light curtain is not sufficient for detecting a desired measurement path,
multiple light curtains can be connected in series or cascaded. When doing so, it must be ensured that the
light curtains do not mutually influence or interfere with one another. This is ensured by activating (trig
-
gering) with a time offset.
The following light curtain arrangements are possible in a cascade arrangement:
• Multiple light curtains above one another, e.g., for height monitoring
