The Mathews Company introduces the new M-C Trax that provides low-priced, remote monitoring of grain dryers from a smartphone or computer browser. M-C Trax also allows farmers to monitor all their dryers from one device. The company is selling the Trax system for $399, which includes hardware and system access so monitoring may begin immediately. No network configuration or software is required, only an available wired Internet connection. After the first year, M-C Trax owners will pay an annual subscription rate of $99.

The Trax will monitor dryer data including alarms; discharge mode, moisture percentage, temperature and rate; mid-grain average and set point; all four mid-grain temperature readings; and plenum (set point and actual of all plenums).
