1 Overview

®
The TELSEC MP1 is designed to provide advanced monitoring and alarming for remote facilities and
cabinets using industry standard communications protocols such as SNMP and SMTP (Email) over
Ethernet. The system has a built-in web server for status review and programming and can be polled
using SNMP GET requests. The MP1 has six universal inputs for monitoring temperature, humidity,
contact closures and any 0-6 VDC or 0-20 mA sensors. The MP1 also monitors the incoming voltage to
the unit and displays the value as the seventh input. Each individual input may be scaled and displayed
in the proper engineering units. The MP1 has two digital outputs which can be actuated based upon
user programmable events or actuated remotely through the web server or SNMP. This user guide is
intended to provide basic operational information for programming and status review of the MP1
System. Please contact Quest Controls for additional information and or questions about the operation
of the system.
