P003741 - Document - MTC200 Operators Manual (Rev - A - 7/6/2023)
Thank you for purchasing the Montag MTC200 Controller kit. The MTC200 is a simple controller that will give
years of reliable and consistent results.
MTC 200 is a simple dry rate controller designed for ease of use and quick installation. MTC200 is designed by
Montag Manufacturing to control the 2108, 2208, or Gen 1 Montag Dry Fertilizer Meters used for dry granular
fertilizer and/or cover crop application.
MTC200 is a non-ISO controller that will work with any tractor, any color. No need to buy expensive harnesses
to make it work. No GPS is required, as it comes complete with speed sensor which should be mounted on the
implement. No need for task control or monitor compatibility concerns. MTC200 controls 1 or 2 products at
flat rate, with manual section control up to 2 sections. Scales show continuous product weight for operator
monitoring. MTC200 requires 12V power source supplied in the cab. Simply plug into cab power source in
your tractor cab. Updates to software are done wirelessly through a mobile device with use of a G11
Bluetooth update dongle.
Reading of this manual will ensure proper understanding of the function and use of the MTC200 controller.
All users should read and thoroughly understand this manual before operation of this controller and the
machine it is controlling. Failure to follow correct set-up can not only lead to misapplied product, but also
equipment damage or physical injury or death to operator or bystanders. Follow all safety labels on the
machine to help you safely operate your equipment. Keep this manual with machine for frequent reference
for operation. Montag Manufacturing reserves the right to make changes and updates to manual at anytime
without notice. Please refer to montagmfg.com at any time to find the latest version available.
Operator should read and understand operator’s manual for Montag metering equipment being controlled.
