• Single or two-button selectable- Allows user to select a momentary SPST input, two separate switches, or a SPDT/DPDT switch input.

• User selectable maintained (toggle) or momentary modes- Allows a short momentary input for continuous travel, or choose to hold the input on for motion, selectable by jumper.

• Independent current settings via sensitive 12-turn potentiometers for adjustment of maximum force in each direction. When a preset current limit is reached, actuator will stop and await the next signal.

• Automatic motor reversing- Once a current limit is reached or another input is received (button pressed again), the motor will stop. The next input will reverse the actuator direction.

• Dynamic braking- With no power applied or direction selected, motor outputs are grounded together to assist in load holding.

• Control board is potted in an open-frame plastic box with mounting tabs.

• 5.13”L x 2.85”W x 1.24”H (width includes mounting tabs).

• All connections are standard 1/4” male spade terminals.

• Designed for one actuator per controller

• May be used to eliminate the need for external limit switches in applications with physical stops. NOTE- when used with limit switch equipped actuators: If actuator is allowed to travel to shut-off type limit switch, the input button to the MC102 controller must be pressed twice to reverse the actuator. The first button press serves as the "stop" input to the controller (in lieu of current limit), second input will reverse the actuator. Limiting travel to "in between" the switches will simplify operation with the MC102. The controller does not recognize the actuator's internal switches as an input.
