For a project I have to use PIC C programmer/ compiler to communicate with the PIC16F877A on both a LABX1 board and a 2840 Development Board. We just have basic tasks that involve light patterns.
So far we have accomplished all tasks required with the LabX1 board, but we did them in MicroCode Studio and my prof says that is a nogo.
We have yet to get any communication to either board with PIC C because we do not have the ICD Hardware. My prof says there is a way to create an ICD with software but I have no idea how. I have basic stamp, M basic, MicroCode Studio and MELabs on my computer to use.
Please let me know if you have any coding and/or settings that we need to use to get communication with the microcontroller. Thanks!
