The EB006 board I bought, frequently it does not work properly.
I can not write programs because the PIC is not detected and this time the program does not run.

The program runs well if I use the internal ossilator of the PIC (16F628a).
But once I chooses the Xtal or RC in Flowcode 4 to run the program, it wil not run.
No matter the position of the switches on the board EB006.

What could be wrong again?

Hello rene.
Re not running on Xtal: Make sure in Chip configure menu you select HS for oscillator.
Are the jumpers 18 and 19 (next to xtal) in correct position (connecting middle to osc side). Experience has found the jumpers and switch can play up a bit. What about Moving slider a slight fraction left and right whilst keeping hold of it.

As for pic not detected. this is often caused by hardware connected to port B, (try unplugging) or ICD/USB jumper in wrong position, or not making good connection. Make sure low voltage programming (via Chip configure menu ) is off.

Okay, I have slightly bent jumper 18 and 19 and then it worked again.

Thanks .....
