Hi,

Can EEWORD be used after a word definition to just save the definition? I defined a simple word, put EEWORD after the ; and save-ram after that. When I restart the IsoPod it hangs when I type WORDS.

Also, do you have an example of the correct use of buffers for the serial port? I have seen examples of allocation, but not correct useage. I have the port working wiothout buffers but it might make it easier with them.

Thanks,

Paul

You did it right.

Can you post the program, or show us the word definition that caused it hang ?


See I/O programming appnote, page 6-8.

Also there are many examples on the download page use serial buffer as well.

Hi,

Thanks for the info on the buffers, that seems to be exactly what I need. The code I tried was something simple like

: ADD2 2 2 + ; EEWORD

SAVE-RAM

When I reset the IsoMax prompt appears but hangs when I type WORDS.
Is there a restart vector or something that has to be set? I just wanted to save some word definitions for now.

Thanks,

Paul

Hi,

It seems I was not compiling or using the word after defining it. When I do that first before SAVE-RAM things work as expected. Also, does the minimal SEE program from Rob Chapman work with the IsoPod as listed in the posting?

Thanks,

Paul

I suspect perhaps you are not doing a SCRUB first, so your Flash is already corrupted with previous definitions. Before starting to move program segments to Flash, if you SCRUB it first, I think your problems may go away.
