7526 DCT Reference
Another difference between how a personal computer and the 7526 load and
run the executable program is that the 7526 has no disk drives. The program,
once loaded, remains in battery-backed static RAM. This includes all
of a program's data variables. All of the non-static
global variables in
the program will retain their values through power-on/off cycles.
This allows having large amounts of data retained on the 7526 through
power failures or over a holiday.
Note:
If variables are global, but declared as static, they will be initialized
on each call to the CFR. To avoid this, do not use the static keyword on
global variables.
