MAC address.

[luizpedrini]

HI Mark,

I´m seeking a way to write the MAC address of one unit to his flash. I know that is been done in the parameters block, but i need to keep the MAC address even in the SW upload. In my tests, when I do a SW upload the mac changes to the default value.

Whats the better way to do that?

Thanks.
Best regards.

Hi

When you perform a firmware upload it should not cause the MAC address saved in the parameter block to revert back to the default MAC address.
If this is happening it means that the firmware upload is overlapping with the parameter block and so is either overwriting it or deleting it in the process.

If you can ensure that this doesn't happen you shouldn't have any problems with its location.

Regards

Mark
