A RS232/RS485 modem on 433MHz that I made in 1992. Only 30 units were made, and I think this is the last surviving one. Probably ~1.5kg worth of metal, PIC processor for handshake, but almost only analog components.

ChatGPT says; "" Please note that my knowledge is based on information available up to September 2021, and I do not have access to events or developments that may have occurred after that date."", yet could answer this.... What gives?

Forth contains its compiler in the runtime! So, you can always compile/evaluate Forth source code in runtime.

So for me, each expansion module has a small EEPROM with the source code to execute the functionality of the module. Yet, can easily be updated by simply modifying the text in the EEPROM.
So, why stop at expansion modules. I am putting an EEPROM on the carrier board, which will contain the "driver" for it.

Loving It!

In 1999, the movie industry made a prediction for 2009...

I have opened shop for new products, meant for but using myself in my energy optimization business.

Many more to follow in the next few months.

Launching beta-trials; Colibri, an open-source, modular, low-cost automation system for building, home and light industrial automation with LoraWAN focus.

Ideal for systems integrators, makers, hobbyists and energy solutions companies.

Programming at 3 levels; STM32CubeMX, Arduino IDE or Forth. Goal: OpenPLC compatible.

Docs; stm32world.com/wiki/Colibri

Contact me for additional information or if you are interested in participating in trying out and developing the concept further. Please BOOST

A lot of boards arrived... A lot of fun programming ahead... Empty panels with stencils to try getting Pick-n-Place machine operational.... Good Times, No Time.
