UserBackupRegister

[Andrew Lindsay]

How are the User Backup Registers implemented? Are they saved to flash as part of the network session?

I had thought they were saved during power loss but I have a mDot where this is not the case. After the power has been removed and restored the values from a number of registers are changed. The only other thing I can see here is that the mDot hasn’t successfully joined a network at this poing.

Thanks

If you’re using the readUserBackupRegister() and writeUserBackupRegister(), those are battery backed registers I believe. They’re cleared when power is removed, but are maintained across sleep.

If you want to write to flash, that’s the saveUserFile() and readUserFile() calls.

That would explain it.

Thanks
