Hello all, Today I received the Snap programmer and did some tests. This programmer was indeed able to program a PIC18F47Q43 which the PicKit3 could not, When you use MPLAB IPE and you have both a PicKit3 and a Snap connected to your PC you can select one of the two programmers in IPE.
The PIC was programmed with LVP ENABLED. As mentioned earlier, all sample files in the upcoming release have been changed to LVP ENABLED as default.
