The linker script files are as follows:

• DevNum – the number associated with the device, e.g., 18f8722.lkr for the

PIC18F8722 device.

• i – Reserved memory for ICD resources is specified

• _e – For PIC18 devices: Extended instruction (XINST) mode is specified

• e – For PIC24/dsPIC DSC devices: XY data is specified for use with the emulator

Tutorial Step 8:

You will be adding two files to your project:

• Locate the file “cnt8722.asm” and click on it. Then click Add>> to add it to the

project.

• Locate the linker script file for PIC18F8722 devices, 18F8722.lkr, found by
