Over the past two years I have completed four systems based on the
New Micros 100 squared boards. 

1.   Injection molding machine stripper plate velocity monitor  :
       read stripper velocity from linear encoder & plot velocity profile
       report via RS-232

2.   Aluminum rolling mill speed & pass display board : 
       monitor mill tachometer & convert to feet per minute 
       recieve remote operator input of entry & exit thickness
       drive large 7 segment displays

3.   Weapons testing gun & camera sequencer :
       recieve & display 8 independent start & stop time settings to 0.1 mS
       activate outputs at selected delays from common start signal

4.   Two axis servo controller :
       drive quadrature feedback servomotors to position via RS-232 command


       These systems have all involved either the NMIX-0011 or NMIX-0012 and a
custom interface board. So far about 15 of the New Micros' boards have been
employed in these applications with excellent results.  The software was written
on a Commodore 64 running the Superforth-64 language as a file server.  Super
-forth 64 words were written to download screens from the Commodore to the 
100-Squared boards via RS-232,  then the compiled binary was DUMPed back to
the  '64  and burned into EPROM with a Jason-Ranheim Promenade.  I have found
the 100-Squared boards to be a versitile base for small data acquisition and 
control systems.  They have been performing very reliably in some quite severe
environments.  The documentation supplied with the boards has been generally
adequate.  Randy Dumse of New Micros Inc. was directly involved in the creation
of the Rockwell FORTH and has been very helpful in these applications.

       I have recently purchased Randy's 68HC11 version of the 100-Squared.
This board has a full 64K address space and an 8 input 8 bit A/D converter.
NMI has produced MAX-FORTH and had Motorola mask it into the 68HC11 ROM space.
MAX-FORTH on the 100-Squared looks very promising.
