4.15 MP96/MP48 – Feature Comparison
The Cattron MP Series of Portable Remote Control Systems is available in two configurations: the MP96 and the
MP48. The MP96 represents the top of the Cattron line. The MP48 Series offers the same dependability
required for operating machinery in harsh, industrial environments, but with fewer features.
The bulk of the information in this manual refers to both the MP96 and the MP48. However, as stated above, the
MP48 is equipped with fewer features than the MP96. A feature comparison of the two products can be found
below. Differences between the two systems are in bold type.
