Not saving Aardvark commands when saving file

[aekalman]

When this set of commands is saved:

<ADDRESS 0x5C>
SUP:TEL? 1,name
BM2:TEL? 8,name
BM2:TEL? 8,data
BM2:TEL? 9,name
BM2:TEL? 9,data
BM2:TEL? 10,name
BM2:TEL? 10,data
BM2:TEL? 11,name
BM2:TEL? 11,data
BM2:TEL? 60,name
BM2:TEL? 60,data
BM2:TEL? 61,name
BM2:TEL? 61,data
BM2:TEL? 62,name
BM2:TEL? 62,data
BM2:TEL? 63,name
BM2:TEL? 63,data

and then loaded, you get

SUP:TEL? 1,name
BM2:TEL? 8,name
BM2:TEL? 8,data
BM2:TEL? 9,name
BM2:TEL? 9,data
BM2:TEL? 10,name
BM2:TEL? 10,data
BM2:TEL? 11,name
BM2:TEL? 11,data
BM2:TEL? 60,name
BM2:TEL? 60,data
BM2:TEL? 61,name
BM2:TEL? 61,data
BM2:TEL? 62,name
BM2:TEL? 62,data
BM2:TEL? 63,name
BM2:TEL? 63,data

Hi Andrew,

That is because your address change is the first command and it is therefore redundant.

The

command changed the address used for all subsequent transactions (up to the end or the next command. By putting this first you are just overriding the 'Slave Device' address setting, so the stored file never has an address change. As such when you read it back in there is no address change in the saved file so it loads the address into the 'Slave Device' field.

If you put the address change halfway down the list of commands you will see that it saves and loads correctly.

You will also notice that if you save the list of commands you presented with the Salve Device set to 0x53. that when these commands are re-loaded the 0x53 is overridden by the 0x5C that you set in your address command.
