Compiled Hex File does not have Config Word

[Archangel]

Hello to one and all,

Please can someone let know if they have had a similar problem or if I HAVE to use the Epic Programmer. I have tried everything I can think of including trying to run a modified .asm file generated by Pic Basic Compiler through MPASM.

Thanks

Hello, I read his book and assembled most of his projects. I use a JDM clone programmer I got off ebay for 12 bucks. It programmed all his code no problem although I had to set the config fuses manualy, as I did not know how to set them in code as he neglected to include that in his book. I learned it here. So I would have to say, no I do not believe you have to get an epic programmer to use PIC Basic Pro, even if that is what they recommend. Now you may choose to use it, I didn't because I was unwilling to pay for it. The JDM clone has not failed to program any supported device I have tried. What programmer
software are you using? You have to tell micro code studio to use your particular software or it will default to epic and it will not run your programmer. ICPROG workes for me and is freeware on the internet. http://www.ic-prog.com/index1.htm
