All MTA terminals are designed to interface directly to Mitsubishi programmable controllers. All data registers, devices, and memory locations are accessible by the MTA. Analog values can be scaled to engineering units for display, and can be modified by the operator within a min/max range.
All MTA products are in metal encosures with membrane type keypads. The enclosures are NEMA 4 rated when mounted through a rectangular panel opening with the supplied (permanently attatched) gasket.
