12F1840 Configuration issue

Hi,
The following configuration(set by PIC Fuse Configurator Mk2):

Config1 FOSC_INTOSC, WDTE_ON, PWRTE_ON, MCLRE_OFF, CP_ON, CPD_ON, BOREN_ON, CLKOUTEN_OFF, IESO_OFF, FCMEN_OFF
Config2 WRT_OFF, PLLEN_OFF, STVREN_ON, BORV_LO, LVP_OFF

is generating the error "Error in device info section of PPI file"
In the PPI file I found the setting as BORV_19 or BORV_25 for low(1.9V) & high(2.5V) respectively.
Maybe there are some compatibility issues with MPASM.
Any pointers please?
Regards
Shantanu

Here is my working config

Device = 12F1840
Config1 FOSC_INTOSC, WDTE_OFF, PWRTE_ON, MCLRE_OFF, CP_ON, CPD_ON, BOREN_OFF, CLKOUTEN_OFF, IESO_OFF, FCMEN_OFF
Config2 WRT_OFF, PLLEN_OFF, STVREN_OFF, BORV_19, LVP_OFF
Declare Xtal=8

Set the fuse configurator to generate its output in assembler, that gets around any fuse name mismatches between those the compiler uses and those Microchip use (usually the result of Microchip changing them after the PPI files were created).

Microchip constantly change the names of SFRs and fuse settings in their datasheets and other info files etc, so when the compiler's PPI files are created, the compiler can only use those names that microchip chose to use then. The PIC12F1840's .ppi file was created in 2010 (see the top of the ppi file), so it is guaranteed that microchip will have changed some name or other since then. They just cannot help themselves. :-)

Therefore always look in the device's .ppi file for valid fuse names. For example, in the "P12F1840.ppi" file, the valid config fuses are:

[CONFIGEND]

The compiler's ppi files can be found here: "C:\Program Files (x86)\ProtonIDE\PDS\Includes\PPI\"

In your original code, microchip have changed the original name of BORV_19 to BORV_LO. So your config setup will be:

    Config1 FOSC_INTOSC, WDTE_ON, PWRTE_ON, MCLRE_OFF, CP_ON, CPD_ON, BOREN_ON, CLKOUTEN_OFF, IESO_OFF, FCMEN_OFF
    Config2 WRT_OFF, PLLEN_OFF, STVREN_ON, BORV_19, LVP_OFF

An incorrect fuse name will cause the assembler to give an "Invalid Fuse Setting [fuse name]" error, so then go into the device's .ppi file and see what the valid fuse names are, and change it in the program listing's configs.

Never change the contents of a .ppi file, unless absolutely necessary, or instructed to do so and with what. Because this may cause the compiler to not be able to parse its contents. The .ppi file is meant for the compiler to read and parse, so it has strict rules on its contents and formatting.
