M5 Timer Cam Reset button



  • I was looking at the M5 timer cam documentation but could not find anything related as to whether all data is wiped off the M5 timer Cam when the reset button is pressed? I am saving some variables on EEPROM and would like to know if it gets erased after pressing reset button. Thank you in advance!



  • Hello @jsolo12345

    the reset button only restarts the ESP32. The EEPROM is emulated on most devices *) and simply a part of the flash. In other words, no, the content of the EEPROM is not deleted when the reset button is pressed. It gets erased however when the flash chip is erased, but then the program is gone as well.

    *) M5Paper is an exception as it actually has a dedicated EEPROM IC.

    Thanks
