connection & test

·

Make sure there is no controller in the ZIF socket.

·

Connect the serial connector to the serial port.

·

Connect a 15VDC power supply. This voltage may or may not be regulated since the PCB is
equipped with a voltage regulator (a 12VDC non regulated adapter will work since the terminal
voltage is about 15 to 16V).

·

When switching on the power supply, LD1 or "Power Good" LED will light. This LED indicates
that the programmer is live and that the controller is provided with +5V.

·

Start the "PICprog2006" software and click the icon on the upper right, viz "Hardware
connections" 

(Fig 1.0)

FIG. 1.0

·

By clicking the LD3, LD2 and LD4 LEDs with your mouse they should light on the PCB (see
PIC2) 

(Fig 2.0)

FIG. 2.0

·

Press "Run hardware datalines test" to start an automatic LED lighting sequence. These LEDs
must light synchronous with the screen 

(see PIC3)

. Press the button again to stop the testing

procedure. Attention: make sure there is no PIC in the socket!.

·

You are ready testing the programmer when the test went well. If not, find the hardware error on
the print or the incompatibility to the PC to avoid irreversible damage the PIC controllers.
