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.
