The Nortech NCT200 is an extremely flexible four-channel counter module that can be used as a standalone unit providing up to 4 individual counters or as a single counter with up to 4 increment inputs and 4 decrement inputs. The NCT200 can also be used as part of a networked count management system by linking it to the server PC of one of our count management system (VenueMaster or NorParc).

When in standalone mode, one or more Variable Message Signs can be associated with each of the counters to provide information of space availability to staff and visitors. Up to two alarm outputs can be associated with each counter to indicate that the count has reached a predetermined value. The outputs can be used to operate Space/Full signs, traffic lights or other external indicators as necessary.

When used with a count management system, the NCT200 can be networked to the server via either RS485 or TCP/IP. The outputs from the NCT200 can be controlled directly from the software to support centralised control of signs, alarms, door/barrier control arming, etc.
