A CORE→SID Module Interconnection Test
This application allows you to check the interconnections to the SID module with a multimeter. You can control the SID pins by sending a Modulation Wheel event to your MIDIbox SID - just connect a keyboard or use MIDI-Ox (View→Control Panel), or the MIOS MIDI Keyboard (click on the modulation wheel and use the cursor keys up/down).
By default all unselected pins are 0V, except for the CS# pin which is 5V
The Pins are mapped to following Modulation Wheel Values:
# 0: Pin A0 = 5V # 1: Pin A1 = 5V # 2: Pin A2 = 5V # 3: Pin A3 = 5V # 4: Pin A4 = 5V # 5: Pin RES# = 5V # 6: Pin D0 = 5V # 7: Pin D1 = 5V # 8: Pin D2 = 5V # 9: Pin D3 = 5V #10: Pin D4 = 5V #11: Pin D5 = 5V #12: Pin D6 = 5V #13: Pin D7 = 5V #14: Pin CS# = 0V
The current pin name selected will show on the LCD (if connected).
The pins are identified by : _?_
To measure the voltage (and test the connection to that pin is good), connect your multimeter's red lead to _?_ and the black lead to _?_ and select the pin using the modulation wheel.
