Access • With the majority of installations, it’s not always possible to have a qualified VLT technician on site to commission a new installation or troubleshoot an existing one.
Cell modem with RS-485 tunneling MCT-10 drive software operates transparently over a broadband connection to the remote VLT.
Solution • Provide remote access for qualified people to the remote VLT unit. • The MCT-10 software is operated by the technician remotely to quickly and safely solve the installation or maintenance issue.
