SYSGO offers the new ELinOS 2.2 in two versions. For beginners, for evaluation and for learning and test phases, the BasicToolbox is still available. For professional use of embedded Linux, the Development Kit was developed with additional tools and a comprehensive support concept.

Honeywell is expanding its building automation solutions with a Linux-based controller. Honeywell commissioned the Mainz-based software house SYSGO to create the system software for the new member of the EXCEL 5000 OPEN family. The core of the hardware platform is based on a PowerPC CPU from Motorola, for which SYSGO developed the board support package, the drivers for the required peripherals and a boot loader. The application software is created in-house by Honeywell.

The distribution for embedded Linux originating from Germany is now also available for ARM processors and will be presented to the public at Embedded Systems 2002. ELinOS has been extended by special functions tailored to the ARM architecture and will be available not only for Intel x86, PowerPC but also for the widely used ARM processors from March 2002.
