To program ROM, slide all switches to the left. Connect a microcontroller dev board (Arduino-like) per wiring guidance in the schematics. Code to perform the programming routine is available in my [EEPROM Burner](https://github.com/nickbild/eeprom_burner) repository.

A small utility, `hex.py`, has been provided to generate the calls to the `write` function that are required (in [EEPROM Burner](https://github.com/nickbild/eeprom_burner)) to transfer your binary to the ROM. Create a text file named `hex.txt` with hex codes, one byte per line, then run:

```
python hex.py
```

The included ROM image, [6502.asm](https://raw.githubusercontent.com/nickbild/6502_os/master/6502.asm), will capture keyboard input and display it on the LCD screen. This serves as a good template from which to build more complex applications.
