Paranormal MIDI activity

Postby Dovius » Fri Mar 07, 2014 3:50 pm

Hi,

I have build megadrum by syntex's PCB, programmed MCUs. The trouble is that I dont get proper Midi activity. LCD shows everything just fine, but MIDI-OX show only this

Image

only very few strikes are recognized, my LED on pcb also doesnt glow. I striked for about 50 times and get only this

Image

Is it possible, that I programed fuses wrong?
only thing I did was programming PIC like this

Image

and Atmega644 only this

Image

I didnt anything else. I read about low, high bits, but dont know anything about it.
Did I programed MCU allright?
What problems could be??

P.S.
I have alreadt burned atmega644 once :))

Most likely reasons:
1. Incorrect crystal for Atmega.
2. Mismatch between PIC firmware and PIC crystal.
3. Incorrect fuses programmed into Atmega.

So for programming fuses for atmega644 I just only need to do this ?

If you programmed it with a unencrypted bootloader (which is useless) then fuses look correct.
