ET-PGMPIC USB V2.0

ET-PGMPIC USB V2.0 is PIC Microcontroller Programmer which comes from MICROCHIP Co., Ltd and its specifications are equivalent to PicKit2 Programmer of MICROCHIP because it can program many numbers of PIC Microcontroller that are Flash Memory (see list of PIC Microcontroller numbers at ETPGMPIC USB V2.0 in File README of PicKit2 Software Program). The characteristic feature of ET-PGMPIC USB V2.0 Programmer is USB Interface that makes user can apply conveniently and it is high speed for programming, so it takes a short time to program data. Moreover, user can upgrade new Firmware version from MICROCHIP (www.microchip.com). Besides the initial specifications above, ETT designs an additional Module for Emulator Programming that can program data into Target Board directly. So, it is the most convenient to develop program because user does not remove any IC from device and it protects the IC from bent or broken. Moreover, there is ET-PGM PIC TEXTTOOLS that is designed to support operation of ET-PGM PIC USB V2.0 in programming IC on TEXT Tool. In this case, it can support IC DIP-Type in various sizes and numbers; 12F, 16F, 18F and dsPIC.

1. USB Port Connection It is a port to connect signal from Board ET-PGMPIC USB V2.0 with Computer.

2. LED to display statuses; POWER, TARGET and BUSY BUSY: Red LED displays operational status of Programmer. This LED will be ON when Program is running; for example, it is in the process of reading-writing Flash Memory of PIC Microcontroller. TARGET: Yellow LED displays status of Power Supply of Target Board. POWER: Green LED displays status of Power Supply of Board. 3. Target Port Connection is Port of Signal Program that is arranged under ICD2 standard (it is Programmer and Debugger of MICROCHIP Co., Ltd.). It can be used with Microcontroller Boards that have the same arranged Ports as ICD2 standard and it can be interfaced with Adaptor Modules and ET-PGM PIC TEXTTOOLS of ETT.

Problem
The problem is occurred because of checking Voltage at Target Board; it will display Error Message as shown in the picture below;

Solution

- In case of using Programmer through Text Tool, check -

the position of Jumper T/B whether it is in T position or not. In case of using Programmer through Emulator Module, check the position of Jumper T/B whether it is in B position or not. Then, check Power Supply of Target Board whether it is available or not. If not, user must supply power into Target Board completely.
