I'm just stupid. I've soldered R8 in the wrong place :P Please delete this thread and make me a "midibox member". please. I'm not joking. I just didn't deserve being a MB Tweaker. I'm just a 16 year old pupil who likes DIYing. Go on and read my last posts. Do you see anything helpful?

Das geht bei den Voti-Encodern *nicht!* Bei denen von Voti ist eine art Metall-Blattfeder drin. Diese musst Du nur flachdrücken.

Hi, I've got a little problem with uploading the SID-app. I've got a PIC18F4685 with MIOS 1.9d , and a Core-module from Smash. If I power it on, it boots up, the Display (in 4-bit-mode due to the CAN connection with the slave, who is not connected at this moment.) shows first the MIOS-version, and then "Ready." everything is how it should be. If I connect it to the PC and power it up, I don't get any upload-requests. Neither Midi-OX nor mios-studio recieves anything. I think I didn't swap the MIDI-connections and/or their polarity. (btw.: I think I discovered a small error in the CoreV3-pdf: the Midi-out-port has 2 "M-" there.) Any suggestions to solve this problem? thx, matthias EDIT: I solved this problem, but discovered another problem. I described it below.

No cross-posting please!

Thank you! :) 13MB nonstop with a 56k modem.... that's kinda suicide ;) (...another useless post on my long way to a midibox guru ;D)

Yes! Don't ask me anything about coding. The 4 stars below my name do just mean that I've posted a lot of stuff in the forum. They do not mean that I know how MB works ;D

I did a lot of search, but I just can't find the file. All i need is this one file. I want to download it (,unzip) and install JRE. Has anybody got a concrete link to this file? thx in advance. matthias

A touch sensor function is already available: http://www.ucapps.de/mbhp/mbhp_din_touchsensors.pdf

Gute Besserung!

you're right... I didn't think of that ::) of course. I'll edit my last post. and now I will EDIT this post again: sorry Sasha for hijacking ;D But I think you're used to it now ;)

DIN = Digital INput = buttons,switches,encoders DOUT = Digital OUTput = LEDs, relays, other stuff like that one DOUT has 8 outputs (D0-D7) conclusion: a DOUTX4-PCB has 4*8=32 outputs. BUT: you can array the LEDs in a matrix (like done in the MBSID-modmatrix,) and programm a bit to save DOUT-modules. hope that helps matthias

I was thinking just the same when I read that. ;D what about a poll about the opinion of the forum members concerning illegal software?

new idea: as all the LEDs share a common ground, you could use a transistor and a NE555 for (fast) PWM. Know what I mean? The output of the 555 goes to the transistor and switches all the LEDs to ground.

You could also dim the LEDs by implementing a Software PWM.

Thermometer reinlegen und dann PWM ;D (kurz anheizen, dann wieder ausmachen)

Schonmal geschaut ob irgendwer (VHS oder so) so einen Ton-Brennofen hat? Also so einen in dem man so Porzellan und das ganze Zeug brennen kann.

1) CONGRATULATIONS!!! :D 2) Give us some pics!! ;D I wanna see your baby in action!

ich habs jetzt mal mit CorelDraw12 ausprobiert. geht recht gut. Ich habe meine FP mit dem Schäffer-tool gemacht und hatte deshalb noch alle Maße. Ich werde demnächst mal 'n Foto posten. sieht lecker aus :)

:o :o I would trade my girlfriend for that :) speechless.... It's hard to believe that this is DIY congratulations!

;) I can only find online-install-stuff :( I guess I've got to chose one here: http://www.sun.com/download/index.jsp?cat=Java%20%26%20Technologies&tab=3&subcat=Java (still 2 months to go until my village has DSL-acess :) )

thanks for the fast answer, stryd. :) ...and MTE ;D (Warning - while you were typing a new reply has been posted. You may wish to review your post.) Just some more cables for the CS and my HW is complete. :D another question (sorry for misusing this thread :-[) As I have to upload the SID-application when I'm finished with the HW I still need JRE. I've searched the whole Java homepage, but i couldn't find an offline-installation-package. I'm a *modem* user so I prefer dowloading bigger files with a download manager. Does anybody know where to get the JRE-offline-install-stuff? thx in advance, matthias

I don't know If I understood this right: Does the blue line of the CAN-connection mean that TX and RX are connected ?!? http://www.ucapps.de/midibox_sid/mbsid_v2_communication.pdf matthias

It's no problem If you use a simple breadboard. That's really easy to do: 1- cut the holes for the buttons (and screws) in your Frontpanel 2- solder the buttons on the breadboard 3- Screw the breadboard to the panel (you can do the same as Wilba did at his MBSID and just glue the heads of the screws on the back of your frontpanel OR you can just drill additional holes for the screws in step 1) 4- solder the cables to the solder-points of the switches at the solder- (copper-)side of the PCB matthias

... and it's so clean and tidy :) Where did you get those blue acrylic panels?

Du kannst ja mal schaun ob die ein Datenblatt haben , oder Reichelt direkt nach dem Hersteller fragen. Du hast mir übrigens immer noch nicht auf meine Frage geantwortet ;D ;D
