O.K., Now is there a way to set the device in the hex file?

Here is what I am using for a "system"

- Picbasic Pro ver 2.44 to compile ....
- Microcode Studio 2.0.1.6
- For programming: ICPROG 1.05C

... The docs for ICPROG 1.05 C says:

IC-Prog also stores the chip name in the saved HEX file. You can use this option to automaticly set the device by openening its file. Use option "Select device from file" on Misc. page.


And actually... After reading the more closly I guess it means ICPROG stores it there.... (?)


They ARE stored in the HEX file, because that's what you load your programmer with and those definitions are embedded in your compiled file. I have not had the urge to tear apart a HEX file so can't answer your question on where exactly that information is located within it. - Melanie
