Here's a quick guide to upgrading your TL866 programmer from the CS version to the A version. This operation enables use of the ICSP port (which is easily soldered in).
TL866a.zip
1: Install the Programmer's software in C:\MiniPro (I used the current version included in the .zip).
2: Plug in Programmer (hope you chose to install the USB driver in the above step).
3: Run Programmer Software and look at the very bottom line. It should show your version TL866CS.
4: Exit back to Desktop.
