Erasing EEPROM

If upgrading from a major version change (e.g. 2.4 to 2.5) then an EEPROM erase will be required.

To do this upload the sketch below in the mcu. Then let it run once.

Sketch Upload

Using Nanoprog

One can program the board using the Nanoprog programmer with a 6pin SPI connector.
In Arduino IDE select board as Arduino Uno. Upload sketch using File | Upload Using Programmer.

Using an ArduinoUNO

An Arduino UNO board can be used to program the chip. The micontroller should be removed from the RPICT7V1 board and fitted on the Uno to allow programming.
