Hello,
I need help with editing PK2DeviceFile.dat file for supporting new PIC controllers.
I have downloaded PicKit device Data file editor and trying to add PIC18F26K40 to file.
From datasheet i found Device ID 6980h, and ProgramMemory 10000h
But PicKit3 cant detect device.
Could any help with editing DAT file for adding new devices?
At moment i strongly need a 18F26K40 support, but I have other new devices too.
Could any help me? Thanks!

Have you tried to download the newest software from the Microchip website? I am pretty sure the newest software does support these devices with PICkit3.

Indeed it does.
If you look at this page
Scroll down to It will show details on using , which allows programming of the latests devices.

I has installed last version of MPLAB X 5.00 and C8 compiler.
With this version it has working with PicKit3 and can compile to chip!
Thank you for advice!
