Re: [Usbpicprog-technical] PIC16F84A support

[Frans S. <fra...@gm...>]

Hi Francesco,

I don't think it should be very different, do you have the latest firmware?
I will try the 16F84A tomorrow if it still works for me. The only way to 
debug such things  is to modify the firmware to let it send back something.
For the PIC16F84A (and LF) usbpicprog verifies the memory also during 
programming time, so if it doesn't complain during programming, it 
should be ok. Autodetecting is the same algorithm as reading the device, 
so I think the problem is the reading. Maybe you should try to run your 
program.
btw, how long is your cable from upp to 16LF84A? maybe you can try a 
shorter one.

Cheers,

Frans
