MTC-4DAO : MTC Dual Digital+Analog Output Recevier
MTC Overview
The MTC Series is a range of low cost Telemetry Controllers providing a licence exempt wireless link capable of simple control and monitoring tasks. Their ease of use and numerous features make them ideal for adding simple wireless control and monitoring to any application requiring wire free operation.
Product Description
The ECS MTC-4DAO telemetry receiver is capable of being used to monitor two remotely positioned wireless sensors. Pairing the MTC-4DAO with a dual analogue transmitter in one location and a dual digital transmitter in another location, allows for monitoring and control of remotely located systems. An example of this control and monitoring is with long centre pivot irrigators where pump/start stop signals at one end are sent to the VSD and water pressure at the end of the irrigator are also sent to the VSD.

Analog Output
As standard the MTC-4DAO unit is supplied with two 0-20mA outputs.
Digital Output
As standard the MTC-4DAO unit is supplied with low power relays. They are suitable to low current, low voltage switching. To switch high power loads we recommend using external relays or contactors.
