MIOS Bootstrap Loader files - confused

Design Concepts
1

Hi!

I’m going to buy two PIC18F452’s pre-programmed (from Voti) with MIOS Bootstrap Loader for a Midibox SID Synth with 2 SIDs.

Should I have two different versions (different IDs or something?) of the Loader file for each of the core PICs? I have no clear idea what kind of files I should make (I think I have read the available information, maybe I just haven’t understood everything). My configuration will be: Midibox SID, 2 SIDs, 2x20 character LCD, further uploading will be done through MIDI.

Can someone help or maybe even provide the correct MIOS Bootstrap Loader files?

Help greatly appreciated, thanks!

Yes,

Your cores need unique ID’s in PIC ID header.. It defaults to all zeroes for the most common setup, so you might pick 0000000000000001 for the second.

Check Bootstrap loader page again, and I think you will figure out what’s going on. (And for SmashTV’s PIC ID calculator link)

You could also use change_id_v1_4.zip application from MIOS download page, and change ID by yourself.. haven’t checked that out yet.

Yes it works. I tried it once. But you have to connect only one CORE to Midi while doing the ID change.
