if you get the A version, when you program, make sure you put the IO delay to 20

Same problem here, I have series and it doesn't work. Sephult, with the wrong crystal, did it output anything ?

Don't feel bad, the link is hidden, don't tell anyone ;)

Dragon : thanks, noted, you're still in time :)

Also, it is quite surprising you were able to get some because those encoders are made oversea (in malaysia) and companies who order some from ALPS have to order a minimum of 1200.

Well, lucky you, but it's not easy to get some in most parts of the world...

Good luck :)

you don't have a wireless phone or something like that ?

did you try with a less powerful supply ?

I also doubt that the crystal could have an impact on the voltage, my crystal is the wrong cut but my voltage is at 5v.. Good luck!

9V is quite a bit... you shoud check the voltage regulator, is it a 7805 ? Make sure your crystal is a parallel cut, mine is a series and my core doesn't work because of that.

Do you have a short somewhere ?

ouais tu peux prendre la version a tu dois mettre le délai io a 20 quand tu le programme.

jimp : noted. Shipping should be under 10$. Once I get enough confirmations, I will buy the encoders and check with each person for shipping modalities. It shouldn't be more than 12-13US$ for most of the world, usually between 4 and 9 $. jesaisplus : Undetented encoders will work with both the PIC16F877 and the PIC18F452.... It will work with MIOS and with the midibox16e firmware. There is also a wiring scheme on the midibox16e page made specialy for this particular model.

You can contact Ian Hurlock for button type encoders.

Jesaisplus : see private message in french

Kr8r : noted :)

So it will block after a full turn ?

Unfortunatelty I cannot get detented ones since I'd have to order another 250 of them... For the jog wheel, isn't the encoder low shaftless ?

Check this out, they say they have an endless pot with 12bit resolution, what could that be ? http://namm.harmony-central.com/SNAMM03/Content/Alesis/PR/ION.html

Hello jesaisplu, if you want strictly detented encoders I suggest you talk to Ian Hurlock. If you still want undetented encoders from me, it might take some time since the minimum order is 250. It depends on how much people want some... In between, I just talked to a guy from Acess and they use the same encoders on the Access Virus C rack :)

Thanks Kr8R, I added you to the list, shipping should be around 10$ for regular post. I hope we'll reach the goal of 250 soon, we're currently at 68 which isn't that bad after 2 days.

TestTX... I tried also with the 16e core... nothing :(

I troubleshooted with Ian but we found nothing... Everthing seems fine but the Core doesn't work. If I burn a pic, then remove it, put it back again plug the JDM in the computer and do a "read all", if the data is the same as when i wrote it, does that mean that the PIC is fine ? otherwise I can't find where the problem could be..
