Product Description EnFlex Pub. No. 60ENMG200CSG EnFlex MG-200 Control Server Gateway The EnFlex MG-200 is a TCP/IP network host for interconnecting a variety of networked facility systems and devices. It has built-in pulse counters that allow it to receive inputs from electricity, water, gas, and other types of meters and transducers. The MG-200 is designed to reside at a remote site and connect to devices within that site through data and communication interfaces. The MG-200 provides the ability to locally manage multiple data acquisition and control systems and distribute information to and from connected devices over TCP/IP networks including the Internet. The modular architecture of the MG-200 allows it to be installed in its basic form and to be upgraded later with new networking and data interface modules as customers’ requirements change and new connectivity technologies and service offerings become available. In addition, multiple MG-200 gateways can be networked together via Ethernet to provide expansion capability. The MG-200 is available as the MG-200L with a 20 MB compact flash disk and as MG-200 HD with an integral 1.2 GB hard disk drive for applications with large data storage requirements. It is also available with an optional keypad and display for configuration and monitoring of the MG-200's performance.
