I have connect the PIC hidden pins power VDD and VSS to VDD and GND, but after transfer to ARES, the PIC VDD and VSS is not connected. WHo can help me troubleshoot?
How did you connect them? You need to add the power rails in the menu "Design" / "Configure Power Rails" Once you have added them they will be connected in Ares
You also need to add the output of your regulator (say a 7805) to the VCC net, and the GND of your regulator to the GND net. If you have used a two pole connector on the input there would be no connection to the VCC and GND nets to supply the PIC.
To do this click on the "terminals mode" button on the toolbar and drop a power terminal in. Change the terminals net name to VCC. For GND just drop a GND symbol and hook it up (note you can specify a net if you wish, but it defaults to GND).
