The controller's informative messages and easy-to-access cone table put all the information you need right at your fingertips, ensuring you're always in command of your creations.
***The importation of Mercury Displacement Relays (MDRs) is restricted in certain states. This unit includes MDRs, so the manufacturer will need to replace them with Solid-State Relays. This substitution is not one-to-one and may involve additional costs. By making this purchase, you agree to be contacted about any extra charges that may apply. Read below as to how Solid State Relays will help you save in the long-haul!
