    Yes, the PAC can be used as a USB PCI with Toolkit. However, it can;t act as a PAC whilst it is acting as a PCI. Th eprimary reason for the USB port is so that PICED can program the PAC.

    do you mean it will be a PC interface while you are using the toolkit then revert back to running the logic when you finish with toolkit? or does it just stay in that mode?

    It will revert to being a PAC when you finish with Toolkit and unplug the USB connection.
