The ME Controller is the core machine required for any Applied Energistics network. It accepts energy in from most sources, such as EU and MJ and provides it to the machines connected to it.

The current power level is indicated by a coloured bar on the front of the block

When taken by itself, the ME Controller does nothing

A network can never have more than one ME Controller at a time

To receive power all ME machines need to be connected to the ME Controller, be it through any another machine or connected using ME Cable. They are then considered part of the ME Network.

The ME Controller requires a constant input of 6 ae/tick to function, when other machines are connected to the ME Controller, its energy consumption will increase accordingly

The ME Controller has an internal storage of 10,000 ae = 5,000 EU = 2,000 MJ. (1 EU = 2 ae Units, 1 MJ= 5 ae Units)

GUI[edit]

ME Controller GUI showing status and Network.

The GUI can be accessed by right-clicking the ME Controller

It shows the current energy usage and displays all machines which are currently connected to the ME Controller network. The ME Controller is considered 'online' when it has enough power to run

The Power Units tab on the left allows to change the power units displayed

The inventory slot on the right allows the player to attune an ME Wireless Access Terminal to the ME Controller
