The name FSBUS derives from Flight Simulator and bus system, a wiring layout, to which several components can be attached.The PC programs are Flight Simulator with the freeware fsuipc and the FSBUS router (Freeware). This software reads and writes commands and data to FSBUS controllers via a RS232 interface. All parameters are comfortably and freely configurable.Each FSBUS controller consists of a PIC 16F84 Microcontroller. The firmware for these microcontrollers comes with the FSBUS router, and a flasher-hardware is included in the COM interface. The processors are low-priced, robust and fast.

I decided to use this electronic interface as base interface for my cockpit. All standard buttons, lights, and 7-segment displays shall be controlled by this interface. Very soon I shall provide more detailed information. At the meanwhile more information could be found on www.fsbus.de .
