Re: EEPROM Code

THANK YOU!!!!!!!!!

The possibilities are so good.

P.S. Do you know if this will work on the VEXtroller?

P.P.S: Did I say thak you?

(Rather than Double Post)

How does data need to be formatted when you pass it to the EEPROM_Write() function? Can you send variables by name?

Could you call this function using your printf/serial driver. For instance, type "Field Side: Left," and then have this set a variable (such as "rss" - robot start side") equal to 1 (for instance). And then have the handler write to the EEPROM so that when the robot is turned on again, it knows what side it is on without a switch.

Also, I am assuming that the read time is negligable compared to the write time (I.E. one does not need to woory about avoiding interrupts when reading?)
