8.6 PICkit Basic Tool Options

Options specifically for the PICkit Basic tool.

Table 8-5. Program Option Category
Programming mode entryUse low voltage programming mode entry - always selected

PICkit Basic does not support the high voltage Vpp option for placing the target device in programming mode and only supports the low voltage method (Vpp will not exceed the Vdd supply voltage. Instead a test pattern will be used on Vpp).

Program SpeedSelect the speed the debugger will use to program the target as either Low, Normal or High. The default is Normal. If programming should fail, using a slower speed may solve the problem.
