The DC Wireless Connector for Mitutoyo 05CZA662 gages is the hardware link between your Mitutoyo coolant proof micrometer and the MobileCollect Wireless automated measurement collection system. Unlike the Mini Mobile Module EVO (M3E), the Command Mobile Module enables bi-directional wireless communication — readings are commanded remotely by the MobileCollect Base or your SPC software. No button press, no operator touchpoint at the gage required.
In coolant and washdown environments where operator access to a gage mid-cycle is impractical or unsafe, remote-commanded reads via the Command Mobile Module eliminate the process interruption while maintaining 100% measurement data capture.
With the Command Mobile Module, the read cycle is controlled upstream. Read commands are issued by your SPC software via serial output to the Base Receiver, or triggered by a foot switch, hand switch, or wireless remote switch connected to the Base. The Base transmits the request wirelessly to the Command Mobile Module, which triggers the gage and immediately returns the measurement data — all without any operator action at the gage.
This architecture eliminates the human touchpoint in the measurement loop, directly reducing transcription error risk and supporting tighter SPC control limits. The Base can also request single or multiple readings per command cycle and issue sleep commands to extend battery life — all configurable from your host PC or application.
The 05CZA662 cable is purpose-built for Mitutoyo’s coolant proof micrometer line. If your measurement workflow involves gages exposed to coolant, oil, or cutting fluids, this connector maintains the environmental protection your micrometer was designed for while adding automated wireless data transmission capability. With the Command Mobile Module, readings are triggered remotely — by your SPC software, a foot switch, or a hand switch at the operator station — so there’s no need to send an operator into a coolant-flooded work envelope to initiate each measurement cycle.
The Command Mobile Module transmitter itself is not IP rated, but we see very few failures in the field in wet environments. The most common issue over time is that certain cutting fluids and industrial chemicals can cause the cable to become brittle with prolonged exposure.

If you purchased a Mitutoyo MDE QuantuMike (introduced in 2024), this is not the correct connector. The new MDE QuantuMike uses the 06AGL111 cable with Mitutoyo’s S1 connector and Digimatic D2 protocol. See the DC Connector for Mitutoyo 06AGL111 instead. For a deeper explanation of what changed and why, read our complete guide to Mitutoyo’s SPC cable transitions. The connector on this page (05CZA662) is for the previous generation QuantuMike and other coolant proof micrometers in the Series 293 family.
MicroRidge also offers the 05CZA662 cable/connector for other systems in the MobileCollect and GageWay product families:
M3 Connector — Mitutoyo 05CZA662 — For the Mini Mobile Module EVO (M3E). The M3E is the compact transmitter for applications that only require operator-initiated reads at the gage. One-way wireless communication; smaller form factor than the DC.
OEM SPC Cable — Mitutoyo 05CZA662 — For wired connections to the Digital Remote or GageWay interfaces. The Digital Remote provides two-way communication similar to the Command Mobile Module but over a wired connection — ideal for stationary measurement stations. Also compatible with all GageWay wired gage interfaces.
The Command Mobile Module (DC) supports both automated, remotely commanded reads and manual operator-initiated reads via its built-in read button — so it can do everything the M3E does, plus remote automation. The tradeoff is form factor: the DC is larger than the M3E to accommodate the higher-capacity battery required to sustain remote-triggered read cycles. If your application only requires operator-initiated reads at the gage and a compact transmitter profile is a priority, the Mini Mobile Module EVO (M3E) is the right transmitter for that use case.
MobileCollect is a brand-agnostic measurement collection platform — it doesn’t lock you into a single gage manufacturer. Whether your shop floor runs Mitutoyo calipers alongside Mahr micrometers, Starrett indicators, or Fowler height gages, MobileCollect connects them all into a single wireless SPC data network. This connector is one component in that system. To complete the automated wireless link, pair this connector with a Command Mobile Module transmitter (MC-MM-DC) and a MobileCollect Base Receiver.
