2.2 Load Memory File

Wondering about the "Load Memory file" feature. Where does one get the memory file from. Don't see RA Gen creating one, unless it's the generated PDE.

I haven't used 2.2 yet, but from talking with Dave about some of the features, I think this has to do with a memory map file. You have the ability to change the memory locations around IF I ever changed them on the controller. This would ensure that the client would write the values to the proper spot.
So I'm thinking this is what / how you would do it. If not, then I don't know what this option is for.

I thought perhaps it was to reload the Memory settings if one flashes the controller and erases the EEPROM. Would be handy rather than having to re-populate all the fields etc.

This is indeed the intended purpose of the function.

It would be. Haven't figured out how to compile/upload to the controller from .NET yet.. Still relying heavily on the dev libraries and #define wifi for all communication with the controller.
