+Vorticon Posted May 5, 2021 Share Posted May 5, 2021 Interesting. It's probably just a regular CC40 with a custom cart (not show here) for some specific field application. Too bad the LCD is shot... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Of course, we would probably want to get someone good at drawing diagrams to re-draw this in a clearer format. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If I remember correctly, I have a metal case that once carried a saws all that is labeled AEG, so I think they produced tools for manufacturing. This was some sspecific tool, I suppose.

+Ksarul Posted May 5, 2021 Share Posted May 5, 2021 AEG: Allgemeine Elektrizitäts-Gesellschaft (this basically translates to General Electric Company). They make a lot of household appliances and tools (or at least they did when I lived in Germany, but I didn't see any tools on their website today). 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+mizapf Posted May 6, 2021 Share Posted May 6, 2021 Their former ad slogan was "Aus Erfahrung gut" (lit. "good by/from experience"). AEG went bankrupt in 1982; the label went to Electrolux who sublicensed it to almost every backyard workshop. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That would be awesome although I'm not sure a lot of people are clamoring for this unfortunately. I have yet to see significant activity involving the CC40 despite the resolution of the storage issue with the SD solution. I wonder what happened to the proposed video interface...

The challenge would be the embedded 4K ROM on the CPU. I also think the E/A was the only cart to actually take advantage of it. Were there any prototype manuals released for it?
