Efika 5200B Project
Grapically Programmable Industrial/Home Automation Controlin category Hardware
proposed by wmt on 20th February 2006 (accepted on 7th October 2006)
Project Summary
Hardware development for desired I/O capabilities needed within a graphical environment to allow program interaction and exchange of data between multiple devices over a network. Devices will be able to update the central control with operational capabilities and allow for reasonable real time update of information.
Currently have a proof of concept working with an 860 PowerPC setup and using Windows as the host/programming environment. Would port this to Linux and all running on the 5200.
Note the editorial in the April 2006 issue of EEPN on no central controller... along the lines of what a device like this could provide.

As are many... Sounds like the first units are out. Getting ready with physical setup, i.e. power supply, etc.
