Debugger Function Summary : Debugger Options Selection : Memories to Program

Memories to Program
Select the memories to be programmed into the target.Table: Memories to Program Option Category shows all the possible options, however, only those options available for your selected device will be displayed in MPLAB X IDE.
Note:
If “Erase All Before Program” is selected as shown in “Program” then all device memory will be erased before programming.
Table: Memories to Program Option Category 
Auto select memories and ranges
Allow ICD 4 to Select Memories - The debugger uses your selected device and default settings to determine what to program.
Manually select memories and ranges - You select the type and range of memory to program (see below).
Configuration Memory
Check to include Configuration Memory in the area(s) to be programmed. This is always programmed in Debug mode.
Boot Flash
Check to include Boot Flash memory in the area(s) to be programmed. This is always programmed in Debug mode.
EEPROM
Check to include EEPROM memory in the area(s) to be programmed.
ID
Check to program the user ID.
Program Memory
Check to program the target program memory range specified below.
Program Memory Range(s) (hex)
The starting and ending hex address range(s) in program memory for programming, reading, or verification. Ranges must be separated by a comma (e.g., 0-ff, 200-2ff). Ranges must be aligned on a 0x800 address boundary.
Note: The address range does not apply to the Erase function. The Erase function will erase all data on the device.
Preserve Program
Memory
Check to not program the target program memory range specified below.
Ensure that code is NOT code protected.
Preserve Program
Memory Range(s) (hex)
The starting and ending hex address range(s) in target program memory to preserve when programming, reading, or verifying.
This memory is read from the target and overlayed with existing MPLAB X IDE memory.
Preserve Memory
Check to preserve Memory for reprogramming, where Memory is the type of memory. Types include: EEPROM, ID, Boot Flash, and Auxiliary.
Ensure that code is NOT code protected.
Preserve Memory Range(s) (hex)*
The starting and ending hex address range in target Memory to preserve when programming, reading, or verifying. Memory is the type of memory, which includes EEPROM, ID, Boot Flash, and Auxiliary.
This memory is read from the target and overlayed with existing MPLAB X IDE memory.
Ensure that code is NOT code protected.
* If you receive a programming error due to an incorrect range, ensure the range does not exceed available/remaining device memory.
