M1G GOLD CONTROLLER, BASE UNIT

INTEGRATES SECURITY, AUTOMATION, LIGHTING, AND TELEPHONE!

The M1 Controller family offers unequaled value to Systems Integrators, Installers and End Users alike.

Integrators and Installers will value the flash memory firmware, RS-232 serial port, ethernet connectivity option, fast PC programming and ease of installation resulting in reduced work time. M1 offers the flexibility to integrate industry standard systems and components for easy upgrades and system expansion.

End users will welcome the quality and futuristic capabilities of the versatile keypad and the built-in telephone remote. The 500+ word vocabulary pleasantly announces system status, configurable in any sequence to alleviate user intimidation.
