compiled simple loop delay code and get code 32 , doesnt work in v4 either has same code, the bad thing is i created a fairly large project for this chip and i cant get it on it, the example below is only a quick file... this chip has the same programming pin configuration as the 16f690 and i have no problems with that chip in either version of fc

Hello. I have no hardware here but that file compiles OK for me. Do you mean it wont download correctly, or run?

If you can post your '1826 delay test.msg.txt' file you are seeing, this contains the compiler output windows contents. We can have a look and see where it is failing.

OK, it is a problem with PICkit2 then. I'm afraid I cant help with this though there will be others who know much more about PICkit. Most likely Ben will be able to help out on Monday.

Have a good weekend,

Jonny

thanks jonny for the promp responce on that, i think your on to something, when i opened mplad to check support on this device it had all yellow and red icons, on all the other chips i had green and red, looks like i would have to update mplab or pickit2, im probably not gonna deal with that chip, the last time i tried to update mplab it messed with fc5 for some reason... yellow means beta only, i'll reduce the size on my original fc file to fit on the 16f690

Hello brandonb

The MPLAB say`s if i want use these chip........no support

Pickcit3 , I self work with these from China(less in the price)

Regards Wolfgang

thanks, curious, what would i have to do to get a pickit3 working with flowcode? does flowcode access the setting in mplab or in the pickit directly for programming, i would rather be limited to chips that i use rather than having to change flowcode settings everytime i program, i'll probably just stick with in the 20 pin range to using the 16f690 instead of the 16f1829 all though the features are better

Hello Brandon,

You can integrate the PICkit 3 into Flowcode the same as you can with the PICkit 2.

You could maybe try renaming your Flowcode file to contain no spaces but I think Wolfgang is correct about the device support on the v2.

I tried that for you Brandon..It still doesn't work.
