MN 800 Series Controllers

TAC I/A Series Micronet MN 800
The TAC I/A Series MicroNet MN 800 Series
Controllers are programmable, interoperable,
LonWorks™ based control devices.
The MN 800 series controller features eight universal
inputs, four analog outputs, eight digital outputs, a
5.1 volt reference, LED indication, and support for
TAC MicroNet
MN-Sx Sensor Link (S-Link) sensors. Additionally,
network capability is provided through the use
of a FTT-10 transceiver allowing the controller
to communicate to other devices as part of a
LonWorks Free Topology Communications network.

2 Programming any of the TAC I/A Series controllers, including the MN 800 Series, requires WorkPlace Tech Tool.
3 This controller is not suitable for exposed mounting on a wall or panel, or in any other easily accessible place due to the
possibility of personal contact with the high-voltage terminals. It must be mounted inside a suitable grounded metal enclosure.
