4.3.3 Save Firmware into PM3 SD Card


In production houses, there may be a need to program several different device family architectures
without having access to a computer.
Between MPLAB IPE v3.25 and v3.40, the PM3 operating system was split into two parts based on
the device architecture (32-bit vs all other devices). In MPLAB IPE v3.40, the PM3 operating system
and database are split into three parts based on the architectures for 8-, 16- and 32-bit devices.
MPLAB IPE v3.40 or greater enables you to save the three PM3 operating system firmwares
supporting each of the device family architectures into a PM3 SD card.
Once all the PM3 operating system firmwares are downloaded, when a PM3 environment is selected
in Stand-Alone mode, the MPLAB PM3 programmer will load the correct operating system and
database for the device from the PM3 SD card.
This feature is available only in the MPLAB IPE v3.40 or greater, not in the MPLAB X IDE.
To save all three operating systems into the PM3 SD card:

User Guide DS50002227J - 28


© 2025 Microchip Technology Inc. and its subsidiaries
MPLAB IPE User's Guide
MPLAB IPE Reference

1. Insert any supported SD card into PM3 SD card slot.


2. Open MPLAB IPE v3.40 or greater and connect the MPLAB PM3 programmer to the computer.
3. Select Settings>Save firmware into SD Card. The output window in the MPLAB IPE displays
messages when the operating systems and databases for the 8-bit, 16-bit and 32-bit MCUs are
successfully saved onto the SD card.
4.3.3.1 Points To Be Considered:
• Please ensure the PM3 operating system firmware version stored on the SD card matches the
operating system firmware version on the MPLAB PM3 programmer. A mismatch may occur if an
upgrade of the PM3 operating system was performed but the SD card firmware was not updated.
Use the MPLAB IPE v3.40 or greater to select the Settings>Save firmware into SD Card option to
load the PM3 SD card with the desired PM3 operating system firmware version.
• Any firmware versions of v3.40 or greater are not compatible with earlier versions of MPLAB
IPE. It is highly recommended that the MPLAB PM3 use the firmware packaged within the same
MPLAB IPE version.
Version Support
Prior to MPLAB IPE v3.25 One operating system supported.
MPLAB IPE v3.25-3.35 Two operating systems supported (32-bit and all other devices).
MPLAB IPE v3.40 or greater Three operating systems supported (8-, 16-, 32-bit devices).

4.3.4 PM3 Communication Setting Dialog


The PM3 Communication Setting dialog is available under the IPE Menu bar, Settings menu only
when the associated check box for Allow “Communication” under Settings menu is selected in the
Advanced Mode, Production Mode dialog.
The MPLAB PM3 must be connected to the PC, using the appropriate cable, prior to using the PM3
Communication Setting dialog.
This dialog enables selecting the communication port for the MPLAB PM3 programmer through the
IPE.
To use the RS-232 port on the MPLAB PM3, select the COM Port option and use the drop list to
select the available port. Click the refresh button if necessary to view available ports. Click the Test
button to check communication between the IPE and the MPLAB PM3.
To use USB for the communication port, select the USB Port option.
Setting up the COM Port Manually
On some systems, you may need to set up the communications port manually.
On Windows, from the Start menu, select Control Panel, then System and Security. Under the
System settings, click Device Manager. Expand the Ports drop-down list and double-click on the port
you are trying to use. Click the Port Settings tab, and select the following:
Bits per second: 57600 (baud rate)
Data bits: 8
Parity: None
Stop bits: 1
Flow control: Hardware
Click Advanced. Uncheck the Use FIFO buffers check box.

4.5.6 Hardware Tool Emergency Firmware Boot Recovery Utility

Only use this utility to restore hardware tool boot firmware to its factory
state. Use only if your hardware tool no longer functions on any machine.

The hardware tool may need to be forced into recovery boot mode (reprogrammed) in rare
situations; for example, if any of the following occurs when the tool is connected to the computer:
• If the tool has no LED lit.
• If the procedure described in Hardware Tool Emergency Firmware Boot Recovery Utility was not
successful.
YOU MUST USE MPLAB X IDE V4.15 OR GREATER TO USED THE EMERGENCY RECOVERY UTILITY.

MPLAB IPE Reference

Carefully follow the instructions found in MPLAB X IDE under the main menu options Debug >
Hardware Tool Emergency Boot Firmware Recovery.
If the MPLAB X IDE or MPLAB IPE cannot communicate with the debugger, the debugger may need
to be forced into bootload mode (download new firmware). Some possible reasons could be the
following:
• If steps 1-5 in did not correct the debugger issue.
• If the MPLAB X IDE Output window shows an asterisk (*) next to the Application version number,
the debugger’s firmware is not the newest.

This can occur if the Project Properties Firmware options has the “Use Latest Firmware” box
unchecked and there is a new firmware version available with the MPLAB X IDE version.

In this case, check the “Use Latest Firmware” box and click the Refresh Debug Tool Status Icon

in the MPLAB X IDE dashboard display. If there is still an asterisk next to the Application
version number, or the debugger issue is not resolved, proceed to the following steps for
bootload mode.
Perform the following steps to force the debugger into bootload mode:
1. Disconnect the Micro-B USB cable from the debugger.
2. Press down on the MPLAB PICkit 4 logo and hold while plugging in the Micro-B USB cable.
The light strip flashes purple. Continue pressing the logo until the light strip stops flashing and
changes to steady on purple. You are now in bootload mode.
3. Try to reestablish communication with the MPLAB X IDE or MPLAB IPE. If successful, the latest
firmware is downloaded. When complete, the LED is steady on blue and the debugger is ready
for operation.
