(icsp ? ) socket module. upon selection of part, you must press either the yes or no button to indicate whether you want to use low voltage programming. if you answer yes then when the device is displayed on the lcd, you will see ? lv ? after icsp (following the part name). you must ensure that the device has the low voltage program config bit set to ? enabled ? or you will not be able to access the part. this is only avail- able when the icsp socket module is used. if you answer no to the question, then the part will use the normal high voltage on mclr to pro- gram the device. if you do not answer the question prior to enabling pro mate ii when using the mplab ide, you will get a communica- tion error, since the only place to enter low voltage programming mode is from the buttons on the pro mate ii. in addition to the other required pins (rb6, rb7, v dd , v ss , v pp ), you must connect the low voltage programming pin (rb3) to pin 2 of the 15-pin connector on the icsp socket module.
