I'm trying to understand how settings are stored in a controller board (in my case it's a RAMBO board).
I think I know there is flash memory, EEPROM and possibly something else?
I'm thinking settings I change from the control on the printer and maybe Pronterface are stored in flash and go away when the printer is shut down and restarted?
I also believe you can save these settings to a persistent type of memory using M500.
EEPROM is longer term storage that persists when the printer is power cycled?
Is there a deeper, longer term memory?
Where is firmware written to?
Is it possible to backup and reload settings stored in the deeper types of memory? I've heard they are written in HEX so aren't editable but can they be saved and reloaded?
Thanks for helping me understand.
