# [SPECIAL PROPERTIES](#SPECIAL_PROPERTIES)

## [memory](#memory)

*read-write, binary*  
2048 bytes of memory. Initially all bits are set to 1. Writing zero permanently alters the memory.

## [pages/page.0 ... pages/page.63 pages/page.ALL](#pages/page.0_..._pages/page.63_pages/page.ALL)

*read-write, yes-no*  
Memory is split into 64 pages of 32 bytes each. *ALL* is an aggregate of the pages. Each page is accessed sequentially.

# [STANDARD PROPERTIES](#STANDARD_PROPERTIES)

The [**DS2505 (3)**](/man/os/owfs/DS2505.3) is used for write-once incremental storage. It's main advantage is for audit trails (i.e. a digital purse).

The **DS2505-UNW** is one of the *UniqueWare* class of devices. Some of the memory was preprogramed at the factory. See the datasheet for specifics. The **DS2502** , **DS2505** , and **DS2506** differ in their function by the amount of on-board memory they possess. (The internal protocols are slightly different, but the *OWFS* system handles this automatically.
