Serges VMidiBox doesen't support the PIC18 based MIOS architecture: http://www.ucapps.de/howto_tools_syxedit_18f.html So here is the way how to do it: http://www.ucapps.de/howto_tools_mbsyx.html MIOS always remains the same. There is only one Version for all applications. I think using a Bankstick is the easiest solution. Otherwise you would have to load your configurations over MIDI SysEx every time you wanna change the application. Raphael

The modes are set in mios_tables.inc. Pleas read the comments of TK in this file. From main.asm: ; This DIN map allows you to customize the MB64E application to different hardwares ; The MB64E dump structure allows the use of up to 64 buttons, they are grouped to 8 buttons per shift register ; Define the used shift registers for the buttons here ; the shift registers are counted from one - means: 1 for the first, 2 for the second, etc... ; mark unused button groups with 0 ;; NOTE: by default, the first two DIN shift registers are used for the encoders #define DEFAULT_DIN_SR_PIN_01_08 2 #define DEFAULT_DIN_SR_PIN_09_16 3 #define DEFAULT_DIN_SR_PIN_17_24 1 #define DEFAULT_DIN_SR_PIN_25_32 4 #define DEFAULT_DIN_SR_PIN_33_40 9 #define DEFAULT_DIN_SR_PIN_41_48 10 #define DEFAULT_DIN_SR_PIN_49_56 11 #define DEFAULT_DIN_SR_PIN_57_64 12 Hard to believe... These settings are discussed in so many forum threads! Raphael

So have fun with your SID ;D ;D ;D

What do you mean with "now" ??? here is the difference to your first setup? Could you give any more details? Like at which pins you connect what and so on.... In general: Recheck your PCB for bad soldering or solder joints again and again and....

What PSU are you using? Which Voltage is dropping: 12/9V or 5V? When you connect 12/9V and 5V to the SID only, what do you get?

'A' normally means a linear pot. So this seams OK. Sorry, but I have no idea what could be wrong. The ADC seems only to work from 3,X V upwards ???

Hallo! Einfachste Lösung: Mehrere USB Module bauen und sie gemeinsam mit einem USB-Hub in ein Gehäuse stecken Am Treiber musst Du dabei nichts ändern. Es werden einfach mehrere Geräte mit je 2 I/Os gefunden. Raphael

There was a article in the german computer magazine some years ago. I've posted a link to this article: http://www.midibox.org/forum/index.php?topic=5014.msg31289#msg31289

Why are you using the CBX serial driver ??? Done all tests? http://www.ucapps.de/mbhp_jdm.html

Promising ;D ;D ;D

Four messages up I've posted the link to the datasheet. Just scroll up ;)

http://www.ucapps.de/mios_changelog.html Always take the latest one --> V1.8 There is only one hex-file in the MIOS package: mios_v1_8.hex Take this one! And what are you talking about JDM and MIOS ??? Just burn the Bootstrap loader with your JDM (http://www.ucapps.de/mios_bootstrap.html) and upload MIOS via MIDI (Best way is MIOSStudio: http://miosstudio.midibox.org/) When the Bootloader is burned all right you can Upload MIOS and applications via MIDI as often as you want to. Rapael

Yes, it has. Look at the pictures on the core page. The metal side has to point to the PIC chip. Raphael

Hmm... As there is no PCB for this project available, it's not to easy for beginers. To answer your questions: IC2 is a voltage regulator which produces the 5V out of the 12-13V at J2. So just connect all the other pins with a +5V (e.g. IC3-pin14,R12, R11...) to Pin 3 of IC2. Like i wrote above, ther are no +5V coming out of IC3. The +5V are comming from IC2. Normally there are no different symbols for voltage sources and sinks in schematics. So you have to know at least what the ICs are doing to unterstand how it works. Raphael

Right ;D

Right. Please use always the latest version which is V1.8. Just upload the HEX-File via MIDI. Your core should reboot automatically after upload and the LCD will show "READY". Take the 8580 file or just recompile the hole stuff with your desired settings and thake the main.asm file. Yes, but this should happen automatically after a successful upload. Yes, should work after MIOS and app installation. Raphael

Seems, that your firmware doesn`t run on 16f877. Have you included the right header: p16f877.inc instead of p16f874.inc? Also look at make.bat. It is compiled with /16f874. (Don't know if this is important). I'm no expert in porting apps from PIC to PIC. Someone else? Raphael

Sieht gut aus ;D Das LCD sollte "READY" anzeigen. Prüf nochmal die Verkabelung (und nochema und nochmal... :)) Benutz doch einfach MIOSStudio: http://miosstudio.midibox.org/ Damit kannst Du direkt das HEX File hochladen und sparst dir das sysexen. Hast Du überhaupt ActivePerl installiert? Du musst dich natürlich in dem Verzeichnis mit der HEX-Datei befinden, wenn Du das Perl-Skript ausführst. Lies dir nochmal die Syntax-Beschreibung in hex2syx.pl durch. Der Aufruf muss heißen: perl hex2syx.pl xxx.hex (Für xxx.hex natürlich deine HEX-atei angeben) Raphael

You're right, but you cannot have MF and AIN at the same time (the same connection (J5) is used for MF analog in and AIN module analog in). So either 8 Motorfaders or 64 pots. Raphael

Glückwunsch ;D ;D ;D

Puh, ich war schon sehr froh, als ich meine 2 endlich richtig verlötet hatte :) Mir fällt leider nichts mehr dazu ein... Wer anders? Oder doch mal im englischen Forum fragen. Raphael

Google is your friend ;): http://www.leopardcats.com/bbpokey/breadboard_pokey_project.htm --> http://www.leopardcats.com/bbpokey/pokey.pdf Raphael

Das ist jetzt dein eigenes Design, richtig? Dann vergleiche es doch nochmal ganz genau mit dem Design von TK. Ich konnte da zwar keine Fehler erkennen, aber evtl. sind ja doch nicht alle Pins des AN2131 richtig beschaltet. Gruß, Raphael

Ich hab das zum letzten mal vor über einem Jahr gemacht, und da lief alles glatt. (Hab inzwischen EZ-USB auch nicht mehr installiert) Vielleicht versuchst Du mal, das EEPROM per Core mit SysEx Upload zu programmieren, wie es im Readme beschrieben ist:
