Micro code studio -- 16F1847

[Michael]

maybe I can go ahead and choose 16F88 and compile with that in MCS? (and PBP 2.46a?) and then just go ahead and program the 1847? Their pins are compatible.

can you do that? if the pinout is the same?

[Dave]

NO, The 16F1847 is an enhanced processor with different memory locations and different configuration registers. Other than the pinout, they are completely different.

You may need to update your PK2DeviceFile.dat

Try this patch:
Patch the C:Program FilesMicrochipPICkit 2 v2PK2DeviceFile.dat with following file: http://www.piccircuit.com/ins/PK2DeviceFile.dat

thank you Dick. yeah -- stupid question on the pinout thing.
