Model 170MC Traffic Controller

The Topping Electronics Model 170MC Controller is a solid-state microprocessor-based controller designed for use in harsh environments such as those found in traffic control applications.


The 170MC is built with plug-in printed circuit modules and runs a Motorola 6802 microprocessor-based stored program providing logic control for traffic or other control applications. Operator interface with the controller is achieved by means of a front panel keypad and associated display indicators.

Designed for ease of installation, use and maintenance, the model 170MC controller can be installed in a wide variety of industry standard type 170 cabinets.
