EEPROM Management Commands

The system configuration is stored in a serial eeprom external to the main processor on the CPU board. The serial eeprom can store 3 copies of the configuration parameters, including the table of macros. They are designated the working set, backup set, and deep backup set.

C100 (su) Force default configuration load on next processor reset.

Sets serial eeprom valid byte to 0, invalidating the eeprom. New eeprom values will be loaded from the hard coded defaults on the next reset.

C101 (u) Eeprom valid status

Tells if the eeprom contains valid data. This should normally return VALID, as it is fixed with the first eeprom write on the first boot after code load. It will return INVALID following successful execution of the C100 command and before the processor is reset. It is useful primarily for debugging.

C102 (u) Configuration backup

This command should be used after changes are made to the controller configuration and are verified to be working properly. Note that all of the configuration backup and restore commands except this one check for a correct eeprom valid status byte in the set to be copied before starting the copy.

C103 (su) Configuration restore

Restore configuration from backup set to working set.

Most controller operations use values of working parameters stored in RAM on the CPU and Radio Control board processors. To make the restored parameters active, a processor reset (C000) should be done after using this command.
