Chapter 7. KEELOQ MPLAB X Plugin

7.1

INTRODUCTION

The KEELOQ plugin is a utility that provides Serialized Quick Turn Programming (SQTP)

file generation for all HCS/MCS devices. Since the entire configuration is done within

the context of an existing MPLAB X project, it can be used as a general KEELOQ

programmer.

7.2

INSTALL

The plugin requires an existing MPLAB X project with an appropriate KEELOQ device

selected as its target to be set as the main project. The tool uses the current main

project inside of MPLAB X to select the correct device and workspace to attach the

generated code.

The KEELOQ plugin is available from the Plugin Center of MPLAB X.

To manually install, open up MPLAB X and browse to: Tools->Plugins->Avail-

able Plugins and then locate the KEELOQ plugin in the available plugins list.

1. An MPLAB X project must first be created or opened with the correct KEELOQ

device selected. Select File->New Project to start a new project. Follow the

rest of the steps, making sure to select a device from the KEELOQ Family.
