How to use MPASM 'INC' files?

In the PBP *.inc file you will need to comment out the config lines to set the configs in code space.

The default setting in the PBP *.inc file is for HS. An external OSC. So you really do not have to do anything.

The file you are looking at with ";" in front of each line is the MPASM inc file. You DO NOT want to change anything here. Just look at it to see the options.

I will bet HS is the setting you want. That is for an external resonator.
EC will give a clock out function.

Oh my gosh, you're right!!

I really AM confused! I see that the settings are actually set in the c:\pbp\18F67J60.INC file. When I want to change settings, should I just edit this c:\pbp\18F67J60.INC file manually, or put @ CONFIG lines in my source file??

Then what is the purpose of the c:\mpasm\mpasm suite\P18f67J60.INC file? Just to show what options are available?

CONFUSED! Hey , that means thing are going well

It is kind of a personal preference as to where you set the configs.

If you do not plan on changing them often then the inc file might be the way to go. If you like playing with things or have different applications using the same chip then setting the confis in your code might be better.

If you do set them in the code you will not have to remember how you have things setup when you do an upgrade or something like that.

The MPASM *.inc is also used by the compiler...or is it the assembler?
If you read through it you will see all of the lines that are not commented. Those are used for something somewhere.
