Building MBHP_ Burner --<<WORKING>>--

MIDIbox Tools & MIOS Studio
21

So today i’ve succesfully burned the bootstraploader in my 18F4685’s. First i did some initial tests with the old 18F452. Succesfully did a hex read out from the 18F452 so the burner is working properly.

Sidenote: I’m using the P18 software from www.sprut.de which is a good and easy program but…if you have to burn more than one pic you have to close the program after you succesfully burned one pic. For the next pic, close and reopen P18. Otherwise it won’t succesfully burn the next chip.

Next step: Installing MIOS thru midi on the core.

Okay some questions…

  1. First i burned the bootstraploader in the pic.

    That is this file : pic18f4685\burner\bootloader_v1_2_pic18f4685.hex  I did this for both pics.

2.  So now i’m ready to put the pic in the core and upload

    this .hex file : pic18f4685\midi\mios_v1_9f_pic18f4685.hex

But where do you set the ID header then?

Or just use the Change_ ID after to make one the slave, since both are burned as the default 0x00???

After i’ve done this i’m ready to upload the application file of SIDv2…right??

The answer to your question is in the readme.txt of the change_id application. Read it, and when you find the answer please post it here ;D

You mean this answer…   

   o open the Makefile (or make.bat file) and change the ID settings for your needs

   o build a new .hex file, see also

     http://www.ucapps.de/howto_tools_gpasm.html

              (!!! THIS IS AN OBSOLETE PAGE!!!)

   o upload this project like described under:

     http://www.ucapps.de/mios_bootstrap.html

     -> the MIOS bootloader will get active for 2 seconds

     -> thereafter this program will be started

     -> the MIOS bootloader will be started again, but now with

        the new ID settings

     -> the LCD will show the new ID header (if connected)

I think i’m getting it.

Well, I was referring to this part:

Required steps for a proper ID initialization:



  o ensure that the MIOS bootloader has already been programmed into

    the PIC. You should see an upload request after power-on

    (see also: http://www.ucapps.de/howto_debug_midi.html)



  o upload the most recent MIOS version like described under:

DenDer, again good spot on the obsolete page: "Same procedure as last year, Ms. Sophie" ;)

And just use the pic18f4685\midi\mios_v1_9f_pic18f4685.hex from the update package…or isn’t this the complete application?

;D And who is Ms. Sophie??? Is she single ??? ???

Ms. Sophie is a character in Lauri Wylie’s “Dinner For One” from the 1920s. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dinner_for_One. If you haven’t seen it watch it right now - there’s an awesome version with Freddie Frinton from '63:
