To allow portability of code, the programmer is required to read the configuration word and ID locations from the HEX
file when loading the HEX file. If configuration word information was not present in the HEX file, then a simple warning
message may be issued. Similarly, while saving a HEX file, configuration word and ID information must be included.
An option to not include this information may be provided.
Specifically for the PIC16F87XA, the EEPROM data memory should also be embedded in the HEX file (see
Section 2.2).
Microchip Technology Inc. feels strongly that this feature is important for the benefit of the end customer.
