A request of Local Help (London UK)

Testing/Troubleshooting
1

I am upset at myself for having to ask this, but I’ve hit a dead end with my MidiBox. I’ve had the Pic Core up and running and a DIN sending out messages, although to many of them! Now I can’t seem to get it to respond, although I can upload hex to it etc…

If there’s anyone in London or even the UK that would be a kind enough soul to give me a hand on this, I’ll be forever greatful!

I know its a pain in the arse thing to ask, but I just don’t want to waste money on this and am thinking of just buying a new kit from SmashTV (mine is from MikesMIDIshop).

Thanks for your time.

Hi Christian

What makes you think it is a dead end? This is MIDIBox and there is always a way!

What have you done to find the fault so far?

If you power up the core with an LCD attached can you see any messages?

Keep at it fella, you’ll get there.

Thanks man I’ll have another go. The LCD displays nothing anymore, which is why I’d given up :stuck_out_tongue:

I’l upload midibox64 back to it tonight and see if I have any better look.

Thats the spirit!

Yes, test and get working the core and LCD, first step for sure.

Post back your results and you’ll be up and running soon.

I hated asking for help!

I’ve ordered a new set, so hopefully shout be able to trouble this one better later.

I can currently upload hex to it and the LCD responds, but with uploading the 128 app I get this on the LCD:

$$6_G$et$$$g=$$$

oN|5$

NICE!

I’ll see what happens when I get the new kit from SmashTV.

But if theres any suggestion on this I’ll try it.

Thanks

So using MIOS Studio’s LCD routines you can write to the LCD but uploading the ain… app gets you weird characters?
