Cr510 Memory - Campbell CR510 Operator's Manual

Flash Memory

Total 128 Kbytes
Operating System
(96 Kbytes)
Active Program
(16 Kbytes)
Stored Programs
(16 Kbytes)
How it works:
The Operating System is loaded into
Flash Memory at the factory. System
Memory is used while the CR510 is
running for calculations, buffering data
and general operating tasks.
Any time a user loads a program into
the CR510, the program is compiled in
SRAM and stored in the Active
Program areas. If the CR510 is
powered off and then on, the Active
Program is loaded from Flash and run.
The Active Program is run in SRAM to
maximize speed. The program
accesses Input Storage and
Intermediate Storage and stores data
into Final Storage for later retrieval by
the user.
The Active Program can be copied into
the Stored Programs area. While 98
program "names" are available, the
number of programs stored is limited
by the available memory. Stored
programs can be retrieved to become
the active program. While programs
are stored one at a time, all stored
programs must be erased at once. That
is because the flash memory can only
be written to once before it must be
erased and can only be erased in 16
Kbytes blocks.
With the Optional Flash Memory, up to
2 Mbytes of additional memory can be
added to increase Final Storage by
another 524,288 data values per
Mbyte. The user can allocate this extra
memory to any combination of Area 1
or Area 2.
(Memory Areas separated by dashed
lines:
can be re-sized by the user.)
