Hi, I've followed the tutorial through and had some success. I'm trying to use the eeprom for counters so I know how often and on what mode the product is used and so at a point I want to increment one in an array of counters.
I tried to follow through on the example code but convert it to uint16_t array. Some save, some don't. Is my eeprom update block statement correct? Can I even do this?

I know it's been a long time since you posted this, but is there such library for the Arduino.
Cant you access EEAR, EEDAR, & EECR??...if you can you can easily get the value you need from EEPROM or store it...what more would you need to do? That assumes you have a specific location you wish to access.

The EEPROM.h library is part of the standard Arduino distribution (and 3rd party cores) for those MCUs that have on-chip EEPROM, which include the common AVRs. Other MCUs, e.g. Arm, that don't have on-chip EEPROM may offer an emulation library using flash.
EEPROM is usually presented as an array, e.g. EEPROM[42] = 7; you can also write this as EEPROM.write(42, 7);
Thanks you for helping

TopEvery Atmel Datasheet I've seen has code examples on how to access the EEPROM similar to this:
Containing a wait loop looking at the EEPROM busy bit. No external delay needed. How did you miss that?

Thanks in advance,
#include uint16_t EEMEM NonVolatileString[10]; int main(void) { uint16_t SRAMstring[10]; eeprom_read_block((void*)&SRAMstring, (const void*)&NonVolatileString, 10); SRAMstring[1]++; eeprom_update_block((const void*)SRAMstring,(void*) NonVolatileString,10); }markah

Top10 bytes is not the length of a 10 element array of 16bit values. The size is actually 20 bytes (10 lots of 2 bytes). Of course you could just use:
This way if you value the [10] dimension the number of bytes read/written will vary.

TopDoh!
Not the first time you have come to my rescue! Much appreciated
