Re:      Digitran Systems, Incorporated Registration Statement on Form S-8

Gentlemen:

                  We are acting as counsel for Digitran Systems, Incorporated, a
Delaware corporation (the "Company"),  in connection with the registration under
the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Act"),  of the offering and sale of
up to 150,000  shares (the  "Shares") of the Company's  common stock of $.01 par
value.  The Shares  include  100,000  shares  issuable  pursuant to that certain
Professional  Services  Agreement  granting  stock  to  a  Company  employee  or
consultant,  20,000  shares  issuable  pursuant to that  certain  Fee  Agreement
granting stock to a Company  employee or consultant,  and 30,000 shares issuable
pursuant  to that  certain  Consulting  Agreement  granting  stock to a  Company
employee or consultant. A Registration Statement on Form S-8 covering the Shares
(the "Registration  Statement") is being filed under the Act with the Securities
and Exchange Commission.


                  In rendering the opinions  expressed  herein, we have reviewed
such matters of law as we have deemed  necessary and have examined a copy of the
Professional Services Agreement, and such agreements, instruments, documents and
records as we have deemed relevant.


                  In rendering the opinions  expressed  herein,  we have assumed
the  genuineness  and  authenticity  of all documents  examined by us and of all
signatures  thereon;  the legal capacity of all natural  persons  executing such
documents; the conformity to original documents of all documents submitted to us
as  certified or  conformed  copies or  photocopies;  and the  completeness  and
accuracy of the certificates of public officials examined by us. We have made no
independent factual investigation with regard to any such matters.

                  Based upon the foregoing,  but subject to the  limitations set
forth below,  it is our opinion  that the Shares will have been duly  authorized
and,  when  issued  and sold in  accordance  with the terms of the  Professional
Services  Agreement and with the terms of the  Consulting  Agreement,  will have
been legally issued, fully paid and non-assessable.

                  The   opinions   expressed   herein  are  limited  to  matters
involving the federal laws of the United States.

                  We hereby  consent to the use of this opinion as an exhibit to
the Registration Statement.

                                    Respectfully submitted,

                                    Law Offices of Gary L. Blum
