Syntax
read address, databyte
• Address - is a byte sized variable or constant that species what address to read the on-board
EEPROM from.
• DataByte - is a byte sized variable (0-255) which stores the data returned from the on-board
EEPROM.
Description
All modules except the BasicATOM Pro 24 and BasicATOMPro ONE come with built in EEPROM.
The READ / WRITE commands were created to access the built-in memory. READ will read a
single byte from the built in EEPROM at the address specied in the command.
Example
The example program will write the string “Hello” starting at the rst location to the on-board
EEPROM. Next, it will read the EEPROM locations 0 to 10 and print the contents to the terminal
window.
