Firmware-640 Intro

The Wi-microDig is a thumb-sized hardware device that encodes analog voltage signals, such as generated by sensors, to music industry compliant MIDI messages with high resolution.

Use any of our many free software tools, such as the iCube and oCube Max/MSP plugins, to interface the Wi-microDig to your software application.

The firmware of the Wi-microDig enables it to operate in both stand-alone mode (sensor data is processed before it is transmitted) as well as host mode (raw sensor data is transmitted). Stand-alone mode includes various sensor processing and mapping features such as gesture recognition that can be conveniently configured using our free editor.

Documentation

This documentation describes the Wi-microDig firmware v6.40. The firmware version number can be obtained by sending DUMP VERSION and DUMP FIRMWARE VERSION commands to the Wi-microDig. If your Wi-microDig’s firmware is older than v6.40 you can most likely upgrade it to v6.40 using our software, freely available from I-CubeX.com.

This specification is divided into general, stand-alone mode and dual mode sections addressing programming commands as understood by the Wi-microDig and transmitted messages as sent by the Wi-microDig.
