Nice to be back in the forum after work life got in the way and things had to change! Bought my cnc machine from work along with the laster system, just finished re-wiring it and fitting new cable chains, new power chassis for the main drive system. I used to use it for making pcbs and enclosures and faceplates so good to have this for use now. Dug my projects out and looking forward to finishing them finally over the winter months, no questions from me, just time to get on with things!

Thats is some beautiful work there Phatline ;)

sorted ;)

I just got one of these to try here, all i am getting is just random pixels. https://www.diymore.cc/collections/led-display-module/products/2-42-inch-12864-oled-display-module-iic-i2c-spi-serial-for-arduino-c51-stm32-green-white-blue-yellow

question!! so on my ng core i have set the core to have its own name and gave it a device id=127 (random pick) when i attach it to the pc it is picked up as normal however, when i then attach my gm5x5x5 to the computer all the ports are the same name if i plug in the gm5x5x5 first then the midibox ng it make all the ports the same as the ng core how do i resolve this any ideas? I have msg'd nils so waiting for some info ( hopefully) Update: solved found the info in the gm5 page at the bottom, good ol' Nils ;) Q: I want to use two GM5 modules for getting 10 MIDI IO ports, how can I give them individual names? A: Break the bridge at J8 of the PCB with a small screwdriver, so that IC2:IO4 is not connected to ground anymore. This selects the ploytec.com VID, so that your operating system can differ between two devices (midibox.org and ploytec.com) and installs an individual .inf file.

edit update: Managed to get the NG working with my XVA1 today, had a few issues with the crappy chinesium midi cable interface thingy, its in the bin now. used teh GM5x5x5 and all worked first time. working on using sys-ex with it, found an old post in the forum to help me with the sys-ex streams really love the .NG

thats ok Thomas ;) For now i will just bank things now i know how to, i need to learn a bit more about code writing etc before i jump into editing it. I am going to go through some of the tutorials in github and try a few other things out. there may be questions about code along the way, but only once i have written or edited things to try. Thanks again

Currently here : https://github.com/midibox/mios32/tree/master/apps/tutorials/005_polling_j5_pins before i go ZZZzz is this the right section to read through ( going to print it out if it is and mark things as I go ) to try and learn how to use the other pins, or do I need to look at other sections of code as well? The info i pasted above from Ucapps page doesn't really go into anything and it wasn't followed up. in github there is this for the Ain module: https://github.com/midibox/mios32/tree/master/apps/tutorials/012_ain_muxed however for the ainsermuxed: https://github.com/midibox/mios32/tree/master/apps/tutorials/012b_ainser_muxed there is nothing in there. I would really like to learn how to edit the pins on j5 to add ainser64's and compile etc. Thanks.

Hi Thomas the only thing i can find that maybe along those lines is this thread from fantomxr but this is for ainser8 I know nothing about this code or how to edit or compile I am afraid, so any pointers or help etc would be welcome for me. little bits make sense but I am no coder I am afraid.

Question: On the Ainser64 info page it states that more than 2 ainser64 can be used: (i want to have 3 ainser64 connected using their own power feed in rather than from the core) Multiple MBHP_AINSER64 (or MBHP_AINSER8) modules are connected to J19 in parallel, and accessed by strobing dedicated chip select lines. J19 provides two chip selects (called "RC1" and "RC2"), if more modules should be scanned, common IO pins could be used for the same purpose (e.g. available at J5). To programmers: alternatively, AINSER64 modules could be chained, or a 3-to-8 MUX could be used for accessing 8 modules via 3 IO pins of the microcontroller. Does the underlined statement refer to j5a and j5b on the core board? Would i need to edit the mios for this or just the NGC file? I cannot find an example or any info for this. Thanks

Many thanks Thomas, with the code and the other edits it is working , i will edit the main code for the 16 3 digit lcds tomorrow after work and see if it does the job.

Thanks Thomas, The fwd_led i tried earlier but it wasn't playing ball for me. The build will have an dec bank and inc bank pair of buttons, with the leds above them 16 mini leds in all, this is just to give visual info on which one is selected. to sweep the cc# from 0:127 I will just use a single encoder. I have all of this working all bar the dec-inc leds so i will give this a try again, if no joy i will check the rats nest incase something is astray. Thanks as always.

Can you have more than one meta event mapped to a button press at the same time?

there isn't any real info on how I can do this, I have the bank code written and working yet don't seem to be able to assign a single led to a bank to show its active and then turn off when another bank is selected and that bank's led comes on. I have tried multiple versions of adapted code and do not seem to be getting anywhere. Searching the forum is hard work as it keeps erroring and not completing the search. I am going to try something in the .NGR script but even so I don't think that is the answer.

Looking over the .NGR info and I am wondering if in this instance would I use the .NGR script to have a single led per bank to show that bank is active? (reading mode activated in the meantime!!)
