bankstick not working

Despite my best efforts checking and re-checking wiring and parts, I cannot seem to get the bankstick module to work.  I'm just trying to verify that it works with my core module by running the bs_xfer code in the download section.  I can compile the main.hex and convert to a syx file just fine, but when I upload it to the core (either using MIDIOX or sysexbox, I get errors returned from the core).  Sysexbox returns error codes 0A 00, 0A 3A, and 00 45.  

I have tried several different 24LC256 chips and have double and triple checked the wiring.  I've also tried both MIOS 1.7 and 1.8 RC1.

Help!

thanks,

Graham

Just to clarify: MIOS doesn't seem to even see my bankstick.  The core never tries to format it and if I try to call MIOS_BANKSTICK_SetCtrl, I get an error code of 2 (bankstick not available).

Has anyone had this problem?  Any ideas for what could be causing it?

Thanks,

Graham

Stigmata,

That was exactly the problem.  Thank you so much!!

I was under the impression that the core module was completely compatible with both the 16f and 18f pics.  Didn't realize that there were these subtle differences.

Again thank you!

ps. is this difference documented somewhere on the site?
