Button connections for LC

jeroddumas · May 7, 2003

Sorry for all the newby questions. Is there a particular order that the buttons and encoders must be connected for LC. What i really need to know is how will i know which button is what when wired up to the DIN module. Thanks for any help.

???

Hi,

all DIN and DOUT connections are free configurable. In this way you can decide by yourself, if you want to have a full setup or a downstripped version with less buttons & LEDs.

The configuration has to be done in main.asm (general settings), mios_tables.inc (encoder settings) and lc_io_table.inc (button & LED settings)

Best Regards, Thorsten.

are these settings available by editing the software with the midi box, or do i alter the code on a computer then upload it onto the PIC.

jeroddumas · May 8, 2003

well i think i see, I open up those files with a text editor an edit them. then how do I turn them into syx files for uploading to the PIC? Sorry to soulnd dumb on this, but I am a newbie.

First read up on the MIOS page then you need to do the following as stated in the main.asm file found in each archive

Required tools:

; o Download the free available MPLAB IDE environment from the Microchip

; Homepage http://www.microchip.com

; o Download and install Active perl from http://www.perl.com

; o Download and install MIDI-Ox from http://www.midiox.com

; o Download and install the MIOS Bootstrap loader from http://www.ucapps.de and

;

; Following steps are required to reassemble the source code:

; o Start MPLAB IDE

; o Open the project file (*.mcp) from this archive

; o Open the main.asm file, here you can find all available include files

; o Change the files for your needs

; o Start "Project->Make" or just press the F10 button

; o After that, a new main.hex file can be found in the directory

; o convert the main.hex file to a .syx file in the command shell with:

; perl hex2syx.pl main.hex

; or just click on "convert.bat"

; o thereafter a main.syx file can be found in the directory. It

; can be uploaded to the MIDIbox NG with MIDI-Ox (see additional

; instructions in the MIOS bootloader archive)

;

And you should be OK

Good luck

thanks for the info ;D

Those were my main worries. Thorston what GLCDs are now supported for MIOS?

Hey Thanks LO! That was really helpful to me too!

Hey Jeroddumas, I have just discovered that there are default configurations... which you can discover for yourself.... but be careful you don't press a delete key or something by mistake!!

Having fun setting up my LC Emulation, thanks so much Thorsten, after a couple of years of midibox building, I am so happy with this one! (I got the motor faders going last night! I was cheering loudly when I got to that moment of seeing the results of all this testing and labour over the last couple of years!!)

have fun all, :D :D :D :D

a very happy bye from Steve! ;D ;D ;D ;D

Hey,

speaking of the default configurations of the buttons, I found all the buttons I need, (I have four dinx4 modules) except for the flip button (though I won't need this when I get encoders, I don't think) and Which 74HC165 controls the touch sensor? (the first four DIN IC's control the buttons) thanks, from Steve

yeah, I'm having a blast playing with my new toy! and I don't even have it in an enclosure! (will send Thorsten a pic of faders sitting on metal strips in an old drawer!)

bye, from Steve :)

Hi Steve,

great to hear that you finally made it! :)

The touch sensors are controlled by the application like common buttons. You just only have to assign the ID_FADER_TOUCH_CHNx events to the appr. input pins in lc_io_table.inc

Best Regards, Thorsten.

Steven_C · May 11, 2003

I just downloaded MPlab, and perl, so now I'll check it out.

Steven_C · May 15, 2003

Okay,

here is the default buttons and LED assignments for LC, I used this as a guide to get my 'box partially set up, but I'll be looking into modifying the asm, as soon as I get some time! (spending so much time on construction)

BTW, when you modify one of the sub programs, how do you connect it with the main asm before you turn it into a hex? just point me in the right direction, I'll investigate further anyway. (don't let me get lazy!)

here it isRepresentation of source code only, not actual code
