Brilliant ! Just order 2 of them ! now similar problem:-
Quote "The Programming device i was using was a PICkit 2"
so what do I search for on Ebay to locate a cheapie version from China?
the Farnell is is at least available but if China do one at half the price.
I got the software running on another laptop, not sure how to configure/use
use it and I assume I enter the 'C' code and make a hex file from with the
IDE.
I'll build the circuit first.
Many thanks for your support !
