Good day everyone,

Would anyone know how to save to flash via a touch shield? i mean.. instead of using a IDE to upload a sketch i wanna give the user an ability to do some settings. for example the background of the touch is black, but he can select blue and save, upon which in the next start up, the background would be blue instead of black.

My hardware are Arduino Demilove and Arduino Touch Stealth
working on a IDE of Arduino_Antipasto.

Thanks for reading my post and please guide me on this if you could thanks... any tutorial or example would be fantastic thanks!

The EEPROM is just what you need. This is as good as any place to start...

Thanks Dude will look at it, do you happen to know of any existing projects which uses EEPROM? =)

Another Question, i saw that it says it has 100000 cycles, if its just reading from the EEPROM, does it consider as an cycle or does it mean like 100000 write?

Thanks

Firmament,

Cycles refers to estimated lifetime in write cycles only. Reads are free.
