6 - APPENDIX A : Changing mode for endpoint 2
The CM-MIDI contains two RTP-MIDI endpoints, each of them providing MIDI IN and MIDI OUT support.
However, due to size constraints, it was impossible to install two DIN connectors for the second endpoint.
Consequently, the connector (9) is used both for MIDI IN and MIDI OUT, but the two functions are not available at
the same time.
The configuration of this MIDI port is performed in factory, depending on the choice made during purchase.
If you need to change the function of this MIDI port, you can reconfigure it using internal jumpers.
WARNING : you will need to open the CM-MIDI and get access to the electronic boards. If you do not feel
confortable with such an operation, please contact a qualified technician.
1. Disconnect the USB power supply cable (6)
2. Using a TORX screwdriver, remove the three screws on the back panel. DO NOT REMOVE THE SCREWS ON
THE FRONT PANEL!!!
3. Remove the back panel by pulling it
4. Touch a grounded metallic surface in order to discharge any electrostatic charge from your body
5. Gently slide the Printed Circuit Board assembly partly out of the CM-MIDI enclosure, until you see a grey
flat-cable connecting the two boards. During the whole operation, take an extreme care not to touch any
components inside, especially the components on the CPU board (which should remain in the CM-MIDI
enclosure, in order to protect it)
6. Locate the configuration jumpers just behind the DIN connectors. These jumpers define the mode (MIDI
IN or MIDI OUT) for the DIN connector of RTP-MIDI endpoint 2.
7. If you want to have a MIDI OUT, place the three jumpers on positions with the “O” symbol on the printed
circuit board
8. If you want to have a MIDI IN, place two jumpers on positions with the “I” symbol on the printed circuit
board. The third jumper can be either removed from the CM-MIDI circuit (do not loose it, you may need it
the next time you want to change the operating mode) or placed on a single pin on a “O” line (do not
place the jumper on the two pins!!!)
9. Gently slide the circuit assembly back into the CM-MIDI enclosure. Make sure that the insulation sheet
under the circuit is correctly inserted and not folded
10. Put the backpanel in position on the back side and re-install the three screws. Do not overtighten the
screws, the contact between aluminium and steel is extremely resistant even with minimal torque! We
recommend you to stop tightening as soon as the screw's head comes into contact with the panel.
7 - APPENDIX B : Upgrading firmware
KissBox is continuously enhancing the firmware running in their products, especially to add new
functionnalities. You can easily upgrade the firmware running on the CM-MIDI to keep your interface “up-to-date”,
using the KissBox Editor.
VERY IMPORTANT: Never try to load into the CM-MIDI a firmware written for another KissBox
product model (DMX1TR, TC2TR, MIDI2TR, etc...), including other MIDI products! Since the CM-MIDI
uses a specific electronic hardware, loading a wrong firmware can make your CM-MIDI totally
unresponsive, but it can also seriously damage or destroy the electronic boards within the CM-MIDI.
Firmware files for the CM-MIDI are available on KissBox website. We recommend you to check regularly for
updates on the website, since we always enhance the functionalities of our products. Latest firmware versions also
correct bugs found in previous versions.
