WORD data storage example?

[free1000]

Not strictly a VSM question, should this be on another forum?

I'd like to store some WORD sized data in the EEPROM area of a 28X so I've been looking at the manual entries for WORD READ and WRITE.

There aren't any code examples for writing and reading word data, so I'm a bit unsure about how to use the syntax

WRITE location, data, data, WORD wordvariable

and

READ location, data, data, WORD wordvariable

I'd expect to have a bit of code that looked something like

main :

' set value of word variable
w0 = 1234

' write word variable data to 2 byte locations in EEPROM
WRITE somewhere, WORD w0

end



Is there a brief code example somewhere that could show me how to do this on a 28X chip?

Cheers

Moved to active forum.

Also make sure you have the Enhanced Compiler enabled if you run into any "error in line" problems with READ WORD or WRITE WORD commands.
