I just upgraded my PBP and it included the micro code studio, which I almost didn't install, thinking it was a demo version.
It looks like it may be included in the upgrade? I don't see any nag screen or anything like that.
So, is it the (49.95) fully functional that is included?
I had just upgraded my Code designer lite in anticipation of the PBP upgrade.....would you folks suggest I go with the Micro code studio instead?
PBP now ships with the free version of MicroCode Studio. This is the same free version you can download.
Are there any limitations I should be concerned with?
Thanks.
The big difference with free version is the limitation on ICD support. This should all be in the help file.
I don't know what I've done wrong but...
(A) Micro code studio "can't locate" the programmer
Everything is setup fine, parallel port, default programmer is EPIC.
(B) So I tried just pulling up the programmer software on it's own and loading a known good hex file and I get...
"unable to access driver"
(C) the regulator with 13volts on it is hotter than hell
(D) the only mistake I made was accidently put a 40 pin 16c65b in backwards. This epic programmer actually has 2 DIFFERENT PIN 1 situations....that is an accident waiting to happen.
and also, I'm not getting anything out of the other regulator (5v)?
The wall transformer they sent (Jameco) has a raw 20vdc on it disconnected.
Check that....the 5V supply is fine....but still same problems
damn....had it on the wrong header for the 8-40 zif socket.
hope nothing was damaged.
?
Micro code was looking for Epicwin but Meprog is what it needed.
?
Programmer survived....this zif adapter is horse****.
