oRAM Object

Provides access to the PIC's Random-Access-Memory (RAM) via a pointer that can be accessed with a Virtual Circuit.

The PIC's RAM is used for both variable storage and hardware control.

Potential uses include allowing an application to access to the internal registers of the PIC and allowing virtual circuit access to any property of any ooPIC object.

Caution: This object is intended for advanced users and its use is not recommended to those without a thorough knowledge of the internal workings of the PIC or the ooPIC.

	Object	Size	Description	A1	A2	B1	B2	C1
	oRAM	3 Byte	Provides access to the PIC's Random-Access-Memory.	x	x	x	x	x

When the Value property is written, the data is stored at the memory location pointed to by the Location property.

Note that when accessing the PIC's special function registers you should use the PIC Object. 

Additional information can be found in the ooPIC Memory Map.

The following table lists the properties of the oRAM Object:

Property	Description
Value	An 8-bit value indicating the value of the location in RAM pointed to by the Location property. Object Class:  oValue   Value Range:  0 - 255 Data Type:  Numeric   Default Value:  0
Location	A value that specifies the current read/write location within the system's RAM memory. Object Class:  oVar8   Value Range:  0 - 255 Data Type:  Numeric   Default Value:  0
Address	Returns a pointer to the address of the oCounter Object instance. Object Class:  oAddress   Value Range:  0 - 127 Data Type: Pointer (Read Only)   Default Value:  Address of Object

' This program reads the memory location 126 ' and outputs its binary value to I/O lines 8-15. Dim A As New oRAM Dim B As New oDIO8 Sub Main() B.IOGroup = 1 B.Direction = cvOutput A.Location = 126 B.State = A.Value End Sub
