Specific Device Considerations


The PIC® 18FxxJxx series devices do not hold their configuration data in the normal way which makes the Format 2 configuration code syntax incompatible with these devices.  If you attempt to generate code using format 2 you will be warned that this is not compatible with the selected device.  You will need to change the format in the Preferences tab.

 

Detecting existing settings

 

Config Settings – By default Fuse Configurator will look for existing fuse settings by scan the scanning the code for Config statements. Any existing Config code will be used to set up the current settings in Fuse Configurator.

 

Operation of Apply

 

When you click Apply with the output set to Current IDE page the application will first look for any existing settings which had been generated by the PIC® Fuse Configurator.  If these are not found, it will look for a device statements in the source text.  If found, the configuration code will be inserted af that point otherwise, it will insert at the current cursor location.

 

If you have chosen to keep all your Configuration statements in a separate file which is referenced by an include statement in the Main program file you might prefer to navigate to the relevant include file and paste the configuration code there.
