Why is my LED not blinking?

Glad you got it working Gary! Funny It seems so obvious to someone experienced with microcode studio that you have to select the file to load, but to a newbie it seems that the file you just compiled should be loaded when you click program. I will remember this post for someone else's sake down the road.

Hello,

If you just compiled a program in Microcode Studio by pressing the button for Compile and Program or pressed F10 it should have brought up the programmer window. This is what happens when I use the ME Labs USB programmer or the EPIC programmer. The only time it doesn't is when I use the PIC Flash from Mikroelektronica. Then I have to open the programmer program and then select the .hex file to load. That may be because I don't have the path for PicFlash setup properly. But as long as I have used MCS it has always opened the programmer window with the .hex file ready to load.

I use a JDM programmer and WinPICpr as the software for squirting the HEX to the PIC. Pressing F10 in microcode studio launches the Winpic pro application, but it doesn't load the code automatically. You still have to use the FILE - LOAD option, and then program the PIC
