Load-n-Go
I recently got hold off one of these hand held programmers which allows you to have up to four images (hex files) ready to go without having a pc or power point!.
CCS Hand held programmer.
My product uses a PIC12F675 and up until now I have been programming my devices either at production and/or for custom settings, using a Picstart Plus programmer.
All well and good if you are as ‘geeky’ as we are, but how about for field updates by someone who has no idea about microcontrollers etc.
This is where this ‘you beaut’ product from CCS Inc. comes in very handy. Your ’support’ team need only to know how to connect to the field device and this unit does the rest at the push of a button!.
I am very impressed with said unit and will update you on more features in a future post.
