Bobi can't answer your question but i am trying to decide between them and wondering why do you want to use both simultaneously? If you are using both, can you please share your opinion about them.sri

I still have FSBUS and I'm happy with but it's a little bitrestrictive about the inputs number and the displayeach 5 7-seg Display use 1 CID You've 31 CID about 10 are used for Key, Analog, Servo, Leds ...remaind less than 20 ...My Navcom use 8 with freq and standby My AP / AT 8I'm little bit short ...The FSBISPLAY output are for 5 7-segso for a 1 digit display you use 1 PIC and the 4 digit not used are losen. With IOcard you count each 7-seg.16 / displaycard, 4 displaycard / master, 4 master / PC....I'don't want to change but may be will buv 1 master and a display of IOcard to test if it's work ...BOB

You can use both IOCARDs and FSBUS.FSBUS connect throught COM port, and IOCards by LPT port or USB port.You have posibilities to run IOCard software and FSBus software... No problem.
