Hi, I built the MBFM synth so I have 2 core built: one with PIC18F4685 that works fine!! and other with a PIC18F452 but I've compiled the firmware with Option 3 (AOUT_NG enabled) wich added to the code size 256 bytes more and when i try to upload this new code i've got this message: "Upload aborted due to error #4: Write failed (verify error or invalid address )".

I try to reduce the code trying to disable another option, but for the PIC 18F452 mostly extra features are disabled, so I go back and upload the code without the AOUT_NG Option. Then got succcess.


I add the size of MIOS code plus the size amount of FM application and with the option 3 overflows the 32K limit of the PIC (32768 bytes)

did anybody have the same problem? it's true i could use the core8 board with the PIC18F4685, but i want to get both working

Could anybody help me?

It will be very difficult to get this working - sorry, the MBFM firmware was always overfeatured - with the latest bugfixes the usage of a PIC18F4685 is a must if special options like the AOUT interface should be enabled as well.

Best Regards, Thorsten.

Thank you very much Thorsten I will use PIC 18F4685 for AOUT_NG module, and upload code without AOUT option for the 18F452, it works this way

best Regards.
