If I store some information in the Eeprom is there any way of retrieving it later, other than using a second program within the PicAxe that uses 'Sertxd' to transfer the information from Eeprom to the PC via a terminal window?
My reason for asking is that I would like to include a serial number and version number in the code. This would be written to Eeprom when the program starts, if the version number already in Eeprom differs from the number in code. I've done a similar thing for the equivalent PIC16F1825 (14M2) and 16F1829 (20M2) and in spite of selecting 'code protection on' the data storage Eeprom can be read, even though the program storage returns 'FF' (or '00') for every location.
I know that the program can't be read back, but if the data Eeprom can be read it would be very useful.
