1763 Econolite has introduced a new generation of rack-mounted advanced transportation controllers (ATC), the Cobalt RM ATC. Cobalt is the first series of controllers to feature a new user interface platform designed to accommodate the mobile computing environment. In addition, Cobalt RM supports remote, wireless access from an 1812 Android tablet application – Cobalt Mobile – which connects via Wi-Fi for convenience, providing users with the ability to work from a vehicle or other location away from the cabinet.

Cobalt RM ATC complies with the industry’s ATC standard 5.2b and proposed standard 6.10. In addition to an intuitive graphical user display, it features an environmentally hardened seven-inch touch screen graphics interface and is matched with a Linux based operating system. Device connectivity includes two USB ports and four Ethernet ports that include support for an external Wi-Fi device. A secure digital (SD) port provides almost unlimited file storage capability.

Cobalt RM meets and exceeds all ATC standards, as well as the NEMA Standard for TS2 controllers, and is manufactured to ISO 9001 quality standards.

Cobalt Mobile, which requires a wireless router, can be downloaded for free at 1691 Google Play.
