    Alain, yes, there is an EP6 on my wish list. The next in-rush of funds will be when the Social Security check comes in. That'll be in about 2 and a half weeks.

    Default My EasyPic6 just arrived

    This looks like a great development board. One question, how well can it be integrated into my development environment, MPLAB IDE & PICBASIC Pro? The first thing I would like to do is make it the "programmer" in that environment, or course then I would want to use the built-in ICD or at least connect an ICD to it. Any chance of that happening? If not, would you just create the .hex file and use the supplied flash proogram to get it into the PIC? Not the cleanest method, but it should work.

    Glad to hear your new toy has arrived

    Personally I use Microcode Studio for the IDE with my EasyPIC 5 board. It is quick to set up as it can find both the PBP exe and MPASM and the picFlash exe files automatically. I'm not sure how MCS works with the ICD option available on the EasyPIC 6 board though, maybe Alain can help out on that score.

    For me, I like MCS. Make a change to the code, click compile and program and job done. Testing further changes is quicker as you already have the PicFLASH application open, so just click reload and click write after re-compiling.
