configuration bits

I just want to make sure I understand how configuration bits work.

this is for a 16F628A PIC

Ok, assuming I still remember how to convert from binary to hex, my _config value should be 2118h

This should turn off: code protection, the watchdog timer, brownout timer, mclr, and low voltage programming option.

It should also turn on: the internal 4Mhz clock without using a pin 15 to output a clock signal and the power on timer.

Is this correct?

You can use the labels that are located in the include file. For example
__CONFIG _CP_OFF & _WDT_OFF & _BOREN_OFF & _MCLRE_OFF & _LVP_OFF & _INTOSC_OSC_NOCLKOUT & _PWRTE_ON

I agree. Using the config' labels makes it easy for anyone to see what your configuration is.

Excellent, thanks!!! I feel like I'm finally on a roll here .
