Ok, was complaining about accessing en external i2c eeprom... Never mind. I tried the "i2ceeprom.h" library and it works like a charm...

Looks like I'm going to have to create a separate library to talk to an i2c eeprom chip (the 24c256) since I have tried the different libraries, different codes and the results are random. Just to get the list of I2C devices gives me random values but, using the Arduino IDE, the code gives the true results. The alarm I created using the Arduino IDE calls the eeprom without any issues but the ones for GCBasic doesn't - Even looking through Microchips specs, I can't get it to work. While working for...

Actually, in 1976, I bought my first computer, the South West Product Center 6800 using the Motorola's true General Purpose Micro Processor (Intel's had specific registers, the 6800 used GP registers) I just opened my projects from 1993 to 2001 at Autostart car starter software and the first 4 page controller was Microchip's 1657, 2k words (instruction and operand in one word) where you had to specify which page you were branching to or end up in the twilight zone. The next chip we used was the 16C63...

Thanks for the reply. The attachment shows the actual code I am using with the INCLUDEs at the end. A little bit about my experience with Microchip etc. I started programming way back in 1976... Yea, I'm old. 1- I was thrilled to finally find a basic language for the microchip/atmel systems. 2- From 1993 to 2001, I was the second hire in a company producing remote controlled car starters/alarms. I looked at one of the first Microchip processors (a 512 word device) used for the remote car starter...

The code I wrote is this: #include "I:!GCbasic\Alarm System\PortsIO.h" in my main code which is: "Alarm System.gcb" in the 'PortsIO.h' file, I have port definitions: #Define DM13Data PortB.2 Define DM13Clock PortB.3 Define DM13Latch PortB.4 followed by: dir DM13Data out 'DM13Data dir DM13Clock out 'DM13Select/clock dir DM13Latch out 'DM13Latch ' In the same file. in the do forever loop I have: do forever DM13display = LEDALL SendToDM13A DM13display wait 1 sec SendToDM13A 0 wait 1 s loop It doesn't...
