So Thorston I would enter in app_define.h Button_state equ 0x010 or any free location correct. I am really not a programmer, but I figure that I can figure out a little. Let me know if I am correct or incorrect. Thanks, and you are brilliant TK. By the way how long before MB 64 is converted to MIOS?

I had a problem similar to this. When I loaded up an AIN test program all was fine, but when I loaded DIN programs I could get nothing to happen, but random events. Let narrow down what is sending the events. Try loading the AIN example 3 program, if the is any jittering, you have ungrounded analog ins, next try the DIN 128 DOUT 128 AIN 64 program, but only try this after you are sure there is not an AIN input problem, If you get jittering on MIDI channel 1 then you have a digital in problem. This problem is most likely cuased by a bad connection to a pullup. Mine was bad soldering to the 10k pull up on pin 20. Anyways check all connections and soldering. Hope this helps. Jerod

Check your connections again

I would check soldering and traces if you used a PCB. Definately a hardware problem.

Hi everyone, I just completed the electronics to my first MIOS project. ;D ;D ;D It is a controller for NI B4 organ. I used the AIN 64 DIN 128 DOUT128 program as an example for my MIOS programming. All is fine with the exection of button functioning. How do you set the button mode to toggle in MIOS. If anyone can post an example of how to change that for me I would great;y appreciate the help.

hmmm looks like the link works.

Thanks, All is well enjoying MIOS. ;D ;D

LCD is now working fine, now on to comlete the project. ;D ;D ;D

The midi box is up and running fine. Sending and recieving data. I will check these tracks soldering.

Thorston, I can't find a datasheet for the LCD. The main problem is because I do not see a name on the LCD. I savaged these from some old Network Hubs. I read that you said the pins can be reversed. Would this be the data pins. I get the display to come on, but it only shows the top row of blocks and nothing on the top row. So i know I have identified vss and vdd. and the led = and led -. now if you say that the bus pins are the same on all other displays wouldn't that mean that all other pins are like the displaytech lcd.

I can't get perl to convert my hex file. I downloaded active perl from perl.com and installed it. But when I run the convert.bat I get bad command or file name. Anyone else with this problem. I am using windows 98se.

is the pin out the same. All I am getting is blocks on the display. No characters.

the other chip says ks0066f00 349 if that is any help.

Could anyone tell me if these are compatible with MB.

I had this same problem, u should really check your MIDI in jack as that is where my problem was. Also use the send/recieve command in the sysex window then paste the results to this forum, and maybe we can help from there.

Thanks Pay-c you was right.

I picked up some alps faders not motorfader :( from ebay. The only problem is when the faders are connected the 7805 overheats and the currect drops. I'm I wiring the fader wrong. Here are the pin positons: 0 0 l l l l l o with o representing a pin. Would the lowest pin be the wipe? That is how I had it connected.

Heya everybody, I finally got my 18f core up and running with MIOS ;D ;D ;D. I just have one question if someone can help me. I am getting a contant MIDI out stream from MIOS, but there are no events showing up in MIDI-Ox. Is this a normal occurance? It doesn't matter what MIOS application i use i still get the same. I have no ain input pins to ground, but I thought it would send random midi events if that was the case.

Youb need the 18f452 i/p. Ordered those from the sample site also. hmmm wonder if my 40 days are up so i can order some banksticks ;D ;D ;D

;Well it seems as though my problem was in the LTC. I only had one IC stuffed although it seems as though this shouldn't have made a difference. Got the core up and running, now i got to get the LCD working. ;D ;D

Just put together a MB core module. The only problem is that I am getting no midi in. I am believing this to be an octocoupler problem. Is there anyway to test the octocoupler?

Does the bootstrap loader supposed to send the dump request string over and over agian? This is what's going on with mine. Is this a problem??

Thank, i was just interested in reusing the PIC, I need to expand my 16, to do a full on Native Instruments B4 control. Guess I have to buy new PICs.

Also u will need the JDm unless you get someone to program the PICs for you. If you are going MIOS you can have someone program the PIC and from then all operating system upgrades are done by sysex.

I am sure that you can emulate the MB64 with the 18f and MIOS, but the frimware will not work with the 18f. 16f is the way to go until Thorston ports MB64 firmware to MIOS.
