I Am CJMERobot! 

If you're on this page, you have likely discovered me in a Geocache. I am a microprocessor based travel bug looking for my home. Please help me find my way home by listening to the clues I have encoded in my vocabulary bank. Each clue will enable more of my features and take me closer to home!



Notes: 

1. Please provide power by leaving me in direct sunlight for at least 20 minutes every day. I have no batteries, but I have polycrystalline solar panels and a SuperCapacitor to harvest and store energy from the sun. I can operate several weeks on one charge, but as my reserves are lowered, I will shut down various systems to ensure my core functions continue to run.

2. Some clues may be given in form. Please help me figure these out! 

3. My travel bug code is encoded in memory and will periodically appear on the seven segment by four digit liquid crystal display.

4. Codes from various locations may be entered with the control buttons on either side of the seven segment by four digit liquid crystal display.

5. Please note that while I'll usually be operating to within acceptable parameters, my time may periodically require adjusting as my 32.768 kHz crystal may be off by up to 10 pulses per minutes (ppm).
