Interfacing Zeus with the PICKkit 2 Starter Kit

[jussij]

These instructions show how to configure Zeus so that it can be used as the IDE for the PICKkit 2 Starter Kit.

Step 1: Create a PIC Document Type with the file extensions of asm and inc.

Code: Select all

MPAsmWin.exe /q /pNNNNNN "$f" /l"$fb.lst" /e"$fb.err"

where NNNNNN is the device.

For example for the PIC16F690 device this would be the command line:

Code: Select all

MPAsmWin.exe /q /p16F690 "$f" /l"$fb.lst" /e"$fb.err"

This document type can be used to compile the source code from within Zeus and have it create a hex file ready for upload.

Step 2: Make sure MPAsmWin.exe is in the path.

Step 3: To programmer the hex file into the microcontroller add the following tool to the PIC document type:

Program: C:\Program Files\Microchip\PICkit 2\PICkit 2.exe

Directory: C:\Program Files\Microchip\PICkit 2\

This tool can now be used to upload a hex file to the microcontroller from within Zeus.

Step 4: To have Zeus correctly syntax highlight the code, edit the document type and add these keywords.
