Snap programmer

[Dick Ivers]

Final summary on the Snap programmer:

1. The programmer works well when using MPLAB X IPE as long you have the latest version (5.30) running. (Thanks Henrick)

2. The device does not work under MicroCodeStudio, at least not for me. MCS requires a named executable. None could be found for this part.

3. For the $7.48 discount price the programmer is not bad as a back up. Note that this item does not supply power to the target … must be powered separately.

The executable is ipecmd.exe.
Are you saying you don't have that even though you have the full blown IPE tool installed and working?

/Henrik.

Henrick …. I tried the executable you suggested but it didn't lead to a useable result. Perhaps something else is needed ??

In any case I don't want to spend more time working on the snap programmer. It would only be a backup device for me and for that it works fine with the MPLAB X IPE.

i had issues with curiosity boards with cmdline from mcs , it worked ok using the tSBURxxxxxxxxx option the snap is pretty similar.

the number for your snap can be read from the MPLAB X IPE
