A look back at some items in our archives.
Information about specific platforms / targets.
The OSC address schema of micro-OSC is broken down into a number of modules. Not all modules may be present depending on the hardware support and compile-configuration. Some addresses may change in the future--this document will be updated to reflect the current state of the OSC message address schema.
Enables control over on-board status lights.
-----
**/status/0** : Get/set status light state
Some boards have more status lights, which are numbered /0 /1, etc.
Understands "on", "off", 0, 1.
TX: [ /status/0 ]
RX: [ /status/0 ,i 0 ]
TX: [ /status/0 ,s "on" ]
RX: [ /status/0 ,i 1 ]
The profiling system is enabled by a compile-time switch.
-----
**/profile/** : Reports timer measurements made over various sections of code.
These messages are reported approximately once per second.
Documentation for the uOSC Developers Group.
-----
**/device/id** : Get/set device identification string.
The identification string is an ASCII character sequence, limited to 8 characters in length. It is automatically populated with a random-number on first startup. The device ID is also reported as the "serial number string" in the USB descriptor, but you will need to restart the device for this to be updated.
The EEPROM module is an experimental module, mainly of interest to developers. It interfaces directly to the EEPROM at the byte level. Presently only the first 64 bytes are in use by micro-OSC, and the current platforms have 256, however more space may be required in the future.

# Overview
A serial port is a bidirectional point-to-point communications channel. Open Sound Control is a datagram protocol which means that it requires a packetized transport (UDP is a common example of this). Serial isn't a packetized transport (nor is, for example, TCP).
# The SLIP framing protocol
Here is an overview of the micro-OSC device descriptor.

This document is the definitive information source regarding the use, implementation and design for the uOSC platform.
- Sometimes the device does not seem to receive commands to toggle the status lights. After resetting uOSC, it works again.
- USB Prober only seems to work correctly before the serial port is activated. Suspect the control endpoint isn't getting serviced because it is starved by activity on the CDC data endpoint.
micro-OSC is a USB class-compliant serial device -- it is automatically supported by built-in drivers provided by operating system manufacturers. For some reason, on Windows, you still need to load a driver "information" file, otherwise it won't work.

**/osc/version** : Report OSC version
TX: [ /osc/version ]
RX: [ /osc/version ,s "1.0" ]
-----
**/osc/type/accepts** : List typetags understood by device
Enables digital communication with devices over TTL serial (0-5v signaling). Baud rates of 2400-115200.
Note that the TTL serial mode conflicts with SPI and I2C modules--only one can be used at a given moment.
The transmit pin is C6 and the receive pin is C7 on the PIC18F series.
**NOTE:** Do NOT leave the input pin (C7) floating! If it is not in use, it must be grounded, otherwise the hardware UART module will behave strangely and may lock up the firmware.

**/ttl/baud** : Get/set baud rate, argument is int-32
