3.1 Programming with mikroBootloader
You can program the microcontroller with a
bootloader which is preprogrammed by default.
To transfer .hex file from a PC to MCU you need
bootloader software (
mikroBootloader USB HID
)
which can be downloaded from:
download.mikroe.com/examples/starter-boards/clicker-2/
pic32mz/clicker-2-pic32mz-mikrobootloader-usb-hid-v100.zip
After the mikroBootloader software is downloaded,
unzip it to desired location and start it.
