How do you set beam target and source outside the particle system?

Posting this in case someone like me founds this question and has the same difficulty.
Thank you very much, helped a lot to make this work!
What I was missing is to set “Source_absolute” and “Target_absolute” to True, other than that it was like on the screenshot and in the linked project. I was confused because of the red border and didn’t pay attention to those parameters.
