Software
Linux on the Electrum 200 provides a stable and reliable operating system base that can be easily extended using readily available libraries and applications. Linux is loaded from NAND Flash, simplifying software development and distribution. Secure remote access can be implemented via web or command line interfaces, providing off-site monitoring and maintenance capabilities. Many popular Linux applications are available or can be easily ported using the GNU compiler collection as well as popular IDEs
including Eclipse and Code::Blocks.
Ports of popular Basic, LUA and Python development tools are available for the Electrum 200 to reduce application development time and simplify integration with code libraries developed for industrial and scientific environments. Using these tools, you can achieve significant functionality in a very short time. These open source tools can be easily extended, allowing a virtually unlimited number of possibilities.
