How to set values to EEPROM outside the program
PostPosted: Tue Mar 17, 2015 4:34 am     Reply with quote

Greetings! I have to load values in the controller EEPROM before program starts. I'm using MPLab and there is an EEPROM window where I can set these values. BUT I have to export it and load it everytime, which is very annoying. Is there a way to do this with program code, which to set the EEPROM on controller program?
The microcontroller will change EEPROM values so it can't be done in the program.
Thanks!

such a shame.
CCS provides a very nice way to do this as the user manual clearly explains.

This program puts 0x55, 0xAA in the first two locations of data eeprom:
Code:

#include <18F4620.h>
#fuses INTRC_IO, NOWDT
#use delay(clock=4M)

#rom int8 getenv("EEPROM_ADDRESS") = {0x55, 0xAA}

//===================================
void main()
{
 
while(1);
}

Compile this program and then look at the EEprom window in MPLAB.
You will see those two values in the window.
