Re: Anyone found a Bootloader for 18F26K22?
Well, I went to there website and downloaded all the manuals and the loader files as well as the GUI interface. I have spent all of today trying to get the darn thing to be able to bootload a program. I am trying to use USART1 like normal but no go. I hooked a scope to the TX and RX pins and I did see a character or two returned from the pic 1 time only. I can see the pinging from the pc side but no responces from the pic side. I read a couple of forums and some people have had some success with the USART2 port. I was going to try that next. I have gone over all the spec's for the part and set all the registers to enable the first and second USART ports. I'm at my wit's end... like I said in my request post, I have talked to David Barker, the writer of MicroCode Studio and he has no plans on updating the MicroCode Loader for now. I would think that if you have a product that everybody uses you would support it. I kind of wish Mel Labs would support a bootloader once again. I use it for all my projects from bench to finish products... BTW, I compiled the same program without the asm lines to remap the bootloader location and used MPLAB to load it onto the 18F26K22 and the ports work just fine and as expected.
