The EEPROM is organized as a sequential set of byte-sized memory
locations. The READ command only retrieves byte-sized values from
EEPROM. This does not mean that you can't read word-sized values,
however. A word consists of two bytes, called a low-byte and a high-byte.
If you wanted to read a word-sized value, you'll need to use two READ
commands and a word-size variable (along with some handy modifiers).
For example,
SYMBOL Result = W0 'The full word-sized variable
SYMBOL Result_Low = B0 'B0 happens to be the low-byte of W0
SYMBOL Result_High = B1 'B1 happens to be the high-byte of W0
EEPROM (101, 4) 'Store word-sized value in locations 0 and 1
READ 0, Result_Low
READ 1, Result_High
DEBUG #Result
--or--
Result VAR WORD
DATA word 1125 'Store word-sized value in locations 0 and 1
READ 0, Result.LOWBYTE
READ 1, Result.HIGHBYTE
DEBUG DEC Result
This code uses the EEPROM or DATA directive to write the low-byte and
high-byte of the number 1125 into locations 0 and 1 during download.
When the program runs, the two READ commands will read the low-byte
and high-byte out of EEPROM (reconstructing it in a word-size variable)
and then display the value on the screen.
Note that the EEPROM and DATA directives store data in the EEPROM
before the program runs, however, the WRITE command can be used to
store data while the program is running. Additionally, the EEPROM
locations can be read an unlimited number of times, but EEPROM
locations can be worn out by excessive writes. See the WRITE command
for more information.
When using the READ and WRITE commands, take care to ensure that
your program doesn’t overwrite itself. On the BS1, location 255 holds the
address of the last instruction in your program. Therefore, your program
can use any space below the address given in location 255. For example, if
