Getting Bankstick Data via SysEX

MIDIbox Tools & MIOS Studio
1

Hi Mates,

long time no see (though I’m still tracking and trying to keep updated)… I was very busy the past year, but I’m now having again a little bit more time to spend on my midibox stuff :slight_smile:

I’m currently trying to code a patchmanager for the ACSensorizer (lost track of what is stored there), but I’m having troubles getting the BankStick data via SysEx for any other bankstick than the first one. I read mios_syses_implementation.txt over and over, and even tried the deprecated bankstick select command, though with the same result:

This is working for the Bankstick #1:

[tt]  F0 00 00 7E 40 00 01 40 00 20 00 F7[/tt]

and I get the whole bs data in return, all data okay

But when I try to get the contents of the second Bankstick:

[tt]  F0 00 00 7E 40 00 02 40 00 20 00 F7[/tt]

I get the error:

[tt]  F0 00 00 7E 40 00 0E 01  60 F7[/tt]

wich means: 0x01      | Less bytes than expected have been received

Now I’m slowly going to tear my few remaining hairs out, 'cause I’m trying for two days now and I can’t find any explanation for this behaviour  ???

Any hint for me?

Cheers,

Michael

It should work with 11 instead of 02

See also mios_backup.txt

   o if additional BankSticks are connected, do the same like above,
     but change the BankStick ID (1-7) like shown here:

                          +--- BankStick ID
                          |
        F0 00 00 7E 40 00 01 40 00 20 00 F7
        F0 00 00 7E 40 00 11 40 00 20 00 F7
        F0 00 00 7E 40 00 21 40 00 20 00 F7
        F0 00 00 7E 40 00 31 40 00 20 00 F7
        F0 00 00 7E 40 00 41 40 00 20 00 F7
        F0 00 00 7E 40 00 51 40 00 20 00 F7
        F0 00 00 7E 40 00 61 40 00 20 00 F7
        F0 00 00 7E 40 00 71 40 00 20 00 F7


     For 64k BankSticks use:
        F0 00 00 7E 40 00 01 40 00 40 00 F7
        F0 00 00 7E 40 00 11 40 00 40 00 F7
        F0 00 00 7E 40 00 21 40 00 40 00 F7
        F0 00 00 7E 40 00 31 40 00 40 00 F7
        F0 00 00 7E 40 00 41 40 00 40 00 F7
        F0 00 00 7E 40 00 51 40 00 40 00 F7
        F0 00 00 7E 40 00 61 40 00 40 00 F7
        F0 00 00 7E 40 00 71 40 00 40 00 F7
