There are 3 groups:

 

General  Indent Style – If Checked the active lines of code will be prefixed with a tab character.

Hint Popup Delay - Adjusts the length of time the Fuse options hint popup appears when hovering the mouse over a fuse setting.


Highlight Previous Fuse Value - highlights the previous fuse value in the hint pop-up if previous configuration settings were detected in the active IDE page.


Add Header and Footer - if Checked headers and footers will be added to configuration code.  

You can customise the header and footer.


Align Comments - If checked the comments will aligned horizontally.


Default Options – choose between fuse defaults set by the compiler or the Microchip factory defaults.


Syntax

By default Fuse Configurator will generate PDS syntax code but you can choose to generate MPASM assembler as an alternative


Generate MPASM Assembler Code – if checked the code generator will produce MPASM assembler code. For 18 series devices you have a choice of 2 syntax formats:  Format 1 uses will produce code in the form Config FuseName=Value. Format 2 will produce code in the form __Config RegAddr Value,Value,etc. By default when first installed the preferred format 1 is enabled.


Output        

There are 3 destinations the output code:


Current IDE page – If existing configuration code has been detected the code will overwrite the existing settings.  If no configuration code is detected but a device declaration has been detected the configuration code will overwrite the device entry and insert the remaining configuration code at that point.  If neither device declaration nor Configuration code is detected it will place the code in the current IDE page at the current cursor position.

 

New IDE Page – You can create a new page in the IDE, choose the Page Name and whether or not you want to include the standard header.


Clipboard – Will deposit the code onto the clipboard.
