Using Fusion board to program external PIC32.

[lpmsr]

Can I use the ICD in Fusion to program an external project with a 10-pin programming header? Can I just connect the Vcc, Gnd, MCLR, RB6 and RB7 connections on the ICD connector to the appropriate pins on the external board? I don't need to debug... just program the PIC on the board.

Hi,

We usually do not recommend to our users to use on-board programmer from development boards,
(as EasyPIC Fusion v7 board) to program the microcontroller on some external hardware.

The best is to use external mikroProg for PIC programmer for that purpose.

Best regards,
Marina

Thanks. I ordered a microProg, but it takes time to arrive. In the meantime, I was able to program the external board using 5 wires from the Fusion MCU socket to the appropriate pins on the external MCU.
