If you have a master chip with code protect off, you can use this master to read and then program another chip. This is the function of a duplicator.

Once the code is protected, you cannot access the HEX code inside the chip.

Instead of using a EEprom to store hex files and then program a fresh PIC in standalone mode, Ravi is using the programmed PIC device itself but it shud be open to read. Once a PIC is written using a PC, the same can be duplicated any number of times without using PC. Nice idea for bulk programming. Nice work Ravi. Good luck
