    'Uses Hex to display as hexadecimal
    For CurrentLocation = 0 to 65535
        'Send location
        HSerPrint LongToHex(CurrentLocation)
        HSerPrint ":"
        'Read Long and send
        EPRead CurrentLocation, CurrLong
        HSerPrint Hex(CurrLong)
        'Send carriage return/line feed
