b) SAVE AS THE FILE
c) NAME THE PROJECT ex: “ LED PROJECT”
4. Build parameters in the software
a) Manage configurations
b) Select proper PIC model
c) Select proper programmer
d) Select proper compiler
e) Select apply
5. Configure the specific Microchip PIC16
a) Select the bit configuration of the IC
6. Configure the bits
