How to use mLoader
Posted: Wed Jan 13, 2016 12:31 pm
Hello
From what i can see the mloader is a bootloader tool that covers
a variety of pic chips for bootloading, but looking at the tools
folder of FC V6 that i have, i dont see an actual bootload "program"
so to speak....
Question is how do i use this for example with a 18F25K22 device
as all i see is some config files and a "bin" file....is there not supposed
to be a FC source file which you can set your config values for the chip
and then compile and write to the target chip first (hex file)...then
after this do bootloading through uart port?
This is the standard way of setting up bootload program, you have to
program the "bootload" setup and compiled program first with a programming
tool like pickit2/3 and thereafter the bootloader takes the hex file from the pc
and xfers the data via some com port....
So how does this mloader work when compared to other bootloaders?
Thanx
