MPLAB X and PICkit 3: Failed to get Device ID

Question

Has anyone tried to use MPLAB X IDE v2.30 and PICkit 3 to talk with the chipKIT pi?

I created a project and selected this device IC32MX250F128B

I then tried to upload (Read Device Memory to File: see http://microchip.wikidot.com/mplabx:read-a-device-and-save-the-hex-file)

Here are my results:

I had to set my jumpers different than the defaults: Default jumper positions: JP1 - UART 2 Receive (RX2) (position required to program chipKIT Pi via MPIDE over serial) JP4 - UART 2 Transmit (TX2) (position required to program chipKIT Pi via MPIDE over serial) To use MPLAB X IDE v2.30 and MPLAB IPE with the PICkit 3, set the chipKIT Pi jumpers to these positions JP1 - ICSP Function PGEC (C is for clock) JP4 - ICSP Function PGED (D is for data)
