You should try to select “Wait for upload request before starting upload” In Mios Studio in the sending panel. I always work this way. You switch off the MB core module, then you start Mios Studio, Start the Upload. Then MiosStudio says something like “Waiting for upload request”. Then you power up your Midibox, then the transmission will start.
I did software implemented loopback test with MIDI OX, everything OK.
I´ll try this tomorow
TEST SW2: (only relevant if you’ve programmed the bootloader with your own PIC programmer): some PIC programmers are not able to modify the ID field, which specifies the MIOS device ID, the LCD type and especially the to-COM option (alternative baudrate). This wouldn’t be a problem so long the ID is completely zero (common case), but unfortunately the ID field is FFFFFFFFFFFFFFFF by default. This program fixes the ID field, details are described in the main.asm header
can you give details, what “dead” means? is it doing absolutely nothing? not even backlight, shadows of where the characters should be? just to make sure: you tried changing contrast and backlight? first thing would be then to check your cables i would say. have you taken care of the special order of the pins as described at ucapps AND checked, if your display pinout matches?
just some thoughts of another newb, but maybe it helps
I´ll try to explaim step by step all procedures for newbie like me.
Please look PDF for more clear undestanding, english is not my native language and some time I have some difficulties to explaim what I´m thinking.
1-I made my mbhp_core_v3b using an universal PCB this is very easy to build and better them protoboard, anyone can do this without buyng an industrial PCB.
2-For people like me that have a programmer like SmartProg2, you must check “Ignore Microchip Recommendation to let most Significant Niblle of each ID to be Fh” this is the secret for not have anymore “Received Unxpected MIOS SysEx message”
3-Take care with MIDI IN/OUT, “Rear View” means exatily “Rear View” see this in PDF atached, that show MIDI Front View.
But here I have no “FLOWERS” there´s no DATA outgoing pin 25 TX, PIC is not dead, I did MIDI OX tests and before upload mios was receiving DATA on MIDI MONITOR IN
Hey AC, I will write something in English, so it’s better to everybody understand.
It’s sad heard that you are finding problems in your project. Which project you are building?
You know, I’m just a newbie here but did you already made all of the midi test/troubleshooting steps?
Try to post your tests here.
Home-made pcbs maybe can be your issue too, and I would suggest you another application to burn your PIC. Anyway, if you have a free time, you can build an MBHP BURNER or even the out-of-date JDM Module.
Good luck troubleshooting your project, and I hope to hear good news in soon!

OBS to AC: AC, to planejando fazer uma ‘vaquinha’ para mandar fazer uns cores v3 numa fabrica aqui dor Rio, então se tiver interessado em entrar nessa vaquinha para pegar um core para você, mantenha contato, pois uma placa profissional pode lhe ajudar no seu projeto
"Users may store identification information (ID) in eight
ID registers. These ID registers are mapped in
addresses 200000h through 200007h. The ID locations
read out normally, even after code protection is applied."
SmartProg2 GUI let user store ID location.
Could someone provide correct ID location for 16F4620?
ID Location 1=?
ID Location 2=?
ID Location 3=?
ID Location 4=?
ID Location 5=?
ID Location 6=?
ID Location 7=?
ID Location 8=?

mios is only the operating system. it does nothing by itself. when uploading an application, actually the midibox gets some functions. i dont know, what you are planning to do. you can find applications directly on ucapps.de under MBHP projects. e.g. midibox64, midibox seq, etc. alternatively you can code an application yourself, using the sdcc-skelleton, for C-applications. i would suggest to look into ucapps and the wiki in depth.
