Hi Campbell,

There's no guaranteed method of knowing which "beam" is being broken
since (i) the beams are not really sharp beams but instead a fuzzy
field-of-view, (ii) the beams are an artifact of optics, not
electronics, and (iii) when a person walks by the sensor, the person's
path may not intersect all of the "beams" for a given sensor.  You
could estimate the beam in software with some but I suspect that you'd
find a non-negligible rate of misclassification.

 and i want to know could we get the sub-beams info ??ex. quad1 beams 2
