broken PIC, lost USB midi in...

[Synthex]

Last time I've tried to program my PIC18F14K50 with my COM cable on synthex 3.1 PCB.

Why did you do that ?

Hi,
I did it because of that:

In the kit, all 18F14K50 are already programmed with the last fimware and are always tested.

You can try this software to program the PIC using JDM, PICPROG, ... :

You know, it's in my nature to try everything I have.
So when I've made programming cables I've wanted to test them:-)
Sometimes something goes wrong...

Yeah, valuable experience does sometimes come with a price tag, doesn't it?

[zaklinacz]

Exactly...
But I've never learned so much about electronics until now:-)

Synthex,
I have problem with Pic programming.
I'd like to ask you, if this should work with ICSP serial cable schematics which is provided by Dmitri?
Should this work as JDM programmer in Pic Prog? I've tried to connect this way, but Pic Prog is not recognizing PIC18F14K50, even if it is in it's ini file.

Did you try picprogjw ?

[zaklinacz]

Yes, I've tried, but I'm not sure that the simple serial ICSP cable with 3 resistors will work...
The software didn't recognize PIC type, even if it have it specified in ini file...
I've tried both hardware COM port and USB-to-Serial converter.

Changed ATmega to new one - it didn't helped...
