2.3.1
1. Remove any PICmicro microcontroller that may be in the Evaluation Socket.
2. Connect the USB cable to the PC and to the PICkit™ 1 Flash Starter Kit board.
It is easiest to use this board when it lays directly on a bench top.
2.3.2
1. Setup Board (first time only); connect shunt to jumper JP1 at the 0.1 pF / position
2. Plug this board into the PICkit 1 Flash Starter Kit’s expansion header J3 (as
