Capabilities
FEC’s Mobile Lighting Controller Version 1 (MLC V1) is an all new, fully digital design that combines
ease of installation and use with sophisticated yet simple and secure configuration via a wireless PC
Controller Software interface.
The MLC incorporates an advanced microcontroller to provide very flexible and programmable
operation, combining proven designs from the FEC Remote Lighting Controller (RLC) and MIL-Star
®
battery helipad lights.
