Real Ice and PBP

[Dave]

Actually NO. I was reading a forum message from somewhere that I don't remember at the moment. I'll look for the forum I was on and get back to you.

Tumbleweed, Here, try this one... Just rename the extension to .dat

[tumbleweed]

I have that one too.

There's no 18FxxK40 or K42 in that dat file either.

Dave, could you haver been looking at Great Cow Basic?

[Dave]

Possibly? I really don't remember..

Tumbleweed, with PK2 or PK3 you can't programm 18FxxK40. ( read here :https://www.microchip.com/forums/m1011325.aspx ) . A simple way for standalone programmer is upgrade to PicKitPlus ( http://gcbasic.sourceforge.net/Types...php/pickitPlus ) or choice another programmer ( like NSDSP )

[tumbleweed]

The PK3 will program the K40 and K42 just fine... it's just that the standalone app doesn't support them and you have to use MPLABX or the X IPE/command-line tools to do it.

I applaud the guy for doing the PicKitPlus but I'm not going to pay $ for what I can already do for free, especially when he's charging almost half of what the tool cost originally.

I'm not sure what he was thinking.
