Title: Using PIC32-MX460LCD with PIC-KIT3
Post by: momchils on August 19, 2013, 03:00:15 PM
Hello,
I'd like to use the kit PIC32-MX460LCD with PIC-KIT3 and MPLAB X. In the documentation I saw that only PIC-ICD2, PICICD2-TINY and PIC-ICD2-POCKET are mentioned. Does that means that I cannot use PIC-KIT3?

Hey momchils,

Of course, you can use PIC-KIT3. Even more - it is recommended to use PIC-KIT3 instead of PIC-ICD2 designs.

The documentation is ancient. I will add it to my TODO list to update it.

Best regards,

And what about the Demo code. It seems that it uses older revision of Microchip Graphics Library and when I try to replace it with the latest one (from June 2013) lots of problems appear?
Has anyone use that?

Hey momchils,

Most of the time replacing a Microchip library with newer or older one (without modifying it) brings a lot of errors. This is due to the fact that they change names and syntax. Whole functions are re-written. Furthermore, sometimes the original generic libraries released by Microchip get modified by Olimex for our specific hardware.
