Starting Pickit3 from MCS

[RamonEJI]

Thanks for your reply. I was confused using the GUI app, and of course my parameters were terrible, HI!

I tried to use two programs of your links (ipecmd and pk3cmd), and they seems work, they recognizes Pickit3 firmware but I found an error: target device not found (could not detect VDD voltage). It seems Pikit3 does not give tension to PIC.
In readme files of these programs, I cannot find what option must I include in parameters to power the PIC

So what does your paramter
For ipecmd.exe the -w parameter sets the voltage supplied by the programmer, -w3.3 for example.
On my machine I have MPLABX v5.2, there's a docs folder in which there's a file called Readme for IPECMD.htm which lists all the options and a whole bunch of examples.

Here's what my PICKit3 at 3.3V entry in the programmers list looks like: -tPPK3 -p$target-device$ -f$hex-filename$ -e -m -w3.3 -OL

I'modified my parameters according yours, and that works fine
Thanks for your help
