2 PC-Driven and Standalone Modes
ICP family programmers can be operated in PC-driven and/or standalone mode

Yes
Yes (single channel only)
Yes
Yes
Standalone
Yes
Yes
Yes
No
PC-driven mode means that all programming parameters and data are set in PC and the PC executes
required sequences (programming, verification, blank check, etc)
Standalone mode means that all programming parameters and HEX file data (“Environment”) are saved in
programmer’s non-volatile flash memory. See paragraph 12 “Preparing Environment and Transferring
Environment to Programmer”.
Standalone programming can be activated by 2 ways:
- from PC
- by GO input on the programmer unit (NOTE: optional on ICP2-Portable)
Simultaneous multi-channel programming can be done in standalone mode only

13 Serialization
13.1 Create Serialization File
Select "Serialization/Create File" to generate a serialization file
Enter the following data:
- Serial Number (serialization scheme): random, pseudo-random, sequential and user file
- Start Address. The address should be valid for the device
- Number of Words. Enter the number of words (1 to 8) for your serial number.
- Start Value. Enter the start value (1 to 16 hex digits). If the start value is greater than
the maximum value for the number of words selected the most significant digits will be
truncated. The start value must differ from zero for pseudo-random scheme.
- Increment Value. Valid for the sequential scheme only
- User File Name. Valid for "user file" scheme only
Press OK to save a serialization file
NOTES:
A currently selected serialization file will be updated after any successful programming for single-channel
programming and after any programming attempt for ICP2-GANG
The "retlw" opcode will be automatically generated for a selected type of devices, i.e.:
- 08(Hex) for low-end microcontrollers (12C5xx, etc)
- 34(Hex) for mid-range microcontrollers (16C/Fxxx)
- b6(Hex) for high-end microcontrollers (17C7xx)
- 0c(Hex) for enhanced microcontrollers (18Fxxx)
- 054(Hex) for 16-bit devices (pattern: 0000_0101_0100_kkkk_kkkk_dddd)
- no retlw is generated for PIC32

= File1.num
User file should contain serial numbers in HEX radix, for example:
1111
2222
3333
4444
5FC1
The user file will be updated by placing semicolon (;) at very beginning of the string, for example:
; 1111
; 2222
3333
4444
5FC1
If your numbers start from very beginning of the string the 1-st digit will be replaced by semicolon:
;111
;222
3333
4444
5FC1
13.4 Enable Serialization
Select "Serialization/Load File" to activate serialization
13.5 Disable Serialization
The serialization will be disabled in the following cases:
- "File/Open..." command is executed
- "Serialization/Disable" command is executed
- "Edit/Read-only Editors" is set to edit mode
- "Run/Read" command is executed
- a new device is selected
- user's serialization file is empty
- Control Center switches between PC-driven and standalone modes

2) Set VddMin=VddMax to disable the 2-nd verification pass
14.3 Vpp Voltage
The Vpp voltage is the same for all the operations
14.4 Vdd-to-Vpp Delay
Delay between Vdd and Vpp can be in range 0.1...250ms. It is recommended to use default delay of 4ms to
correctly enter the programming mode. Longer delays may be useful if the Vdd line has high capacitance
(more than 200uF) which causes the Vdd to rise slowly

16.3 Bulk erase device before programming [x]
When the option is ON the device will be automatically erased by bulk erase mechanism
IMPORTANT:
- this option must be set to ON for proper operation with most of devices
- it's the only option to erase code protected device
16.4 Row erase device before programming [ ]
When the option is ON the device will be automatically erased by the row erase mechanism
IMPORTANT:
- row erase can't erase a code protected device
- available for dsPIC30 family only, may be useful for operation at low voltages
16.5 Exclude DM (EEPROM) from row erase [ ]
When the option is ON the DM (EEPROM) is excluded from row erase procedure
NOTE: available for dsPIC30 family only, may be useful to preserve EEPROM
16.6 Check MOVLW/RETLW of calibration word [ ]
When the option is ON an opcode of the calibration memory is tested during programming
NOTE: available for devices which have a calibration word with movlw/retlw opcode (PIC12F519,
PIC12F675, etc.)
17 Configuration File
The ICP setup is saved in a configuration file named "icp01.cfg".
IMPORTANT: the program reads a configuration file that is located in a directory which specified in "Start in"
property. This approach allows creation of unlimited configurations on the same PC
Normally, a configuration file should not be modified by a text editor.
18 Command Line Parameters (GUI)
Some parameters can be loaded from the command line:
Rev: 4.7.3 Jan-2011
- hex file to be loaded
Page 15 of 18
ICP Family User’s Manual
/c
/s
/p
- configuration file to be loaded, overwrites local "icp01.cfg"
- serialization file to be loaded
- production mode (one-touch operation)
Examples:
Start in the production mode and load file "hex1.hex":
/p hex1.hex
Start in the production mode and load hex file "hex1.hex" and serialization file "ser1.ser":
/p hex1.hex /sser1.ser
”Start in” property should specify a directory where "hex1.hex" and "ser1.ser" are located
19 DLL Functions
ICP family programmers can be run from the user’s application using powerful set of DLL functions. See
document “DLL Description.pdf” for details
20 Command Line Interface (non-GUI)
ICP family programmers can be run from the user’s application using full-featured command line interface.
See document “ICP Command Line.pdf” for details
21 Secure Programming
Your hex files contain business-critical intellectual property that could be compromised during the contract
manufacturing process. Utilizing patent pending technology, our Secure Programming feature provides
several layers of protection that dramatically reduce the risk of unauthorized reconstruction of hex data. See
document “Secure Programming Utility User's Manual.PDF” for more details

22 Manual Production Mode (One-Touch Operation)
The production mode is a powerful option for volume programming
The following steps should be done to correctly prepare the software for programming in the production
mode:
Create a subdirectory (C:\FILE_HEX)
Copy your CFG, HEX and SERIALIZATION files to FILE_HEX subdirectory (for example: "hex1.hex" and
"ser1.ser")
NOTE: serialization file is optional
Change ICP_Win shortcut property "Start in" to C:\FILE_HEX
Change ICP_Win shortcut property "Target" to C:\...\ICP_Win.exe hex1.hex /sser1.ser /p
Double-click ICP_Win icon for programming
The program will be terminated in the following cases:
Communication error
Hex file error
Serialization file should be loaded (/s appears) but loading is failed
23 In-Circuit Programming
Standard in-circuit programming is done through 5 wires (VDD, GND, CLOCK, DATA and VPP)
23.1 Vdd
Maximum Vdd current consumption by the application circuit :
- ICP2/ICP2-GANG:
250mA
- ICP2(HC):
1000mA
- ICP2-Portable:
50mA
Maximum Vdd capacitance: 1000-10000uF. For ICP2/ICP2-GANG, increase Vdd-to-Vpp delay by about
20ms for every 1000uF
NOTE: If your circuit has low current consumption (less than 10mA) in conjunction with high capacitance
(more than 100uF), the load resistor (100-510 Ohm) must be connected between Vdd and GND pins of the
programmer for faster discharge of Vdd capacitor
23.2 Vpp
Vpp recommended load (ICP2/ICP2GANG/ICP2-Portable):
Vpp recommended load (ICP2(HC)):
> 1KOhm, < 33nF
> 100 Ohm, 3.3KOhm, < 33pF
> 50 Ohm, < TBD nF
23.4 Delay between Vdd and Vpp
This delay should be as short as possible (4ms is recommended)
NOTE: for more details contact Softlog Systems to obtain “ICP2-GANG Specification”, “ICP2
Specification”, “ICP2(HC) Specification” and “ICP2-Portable Specification”
