Ok guys git my complete FSBUS system from http://www.projetoa320.cjb.net/ all parts came intact and fast!! Really excellent service... Ok I received the parts with all the electronics built in, ok the 110v Source I got came with the wires hanging I need to have a power source for the FSBUS to work right?? Thanks.Roberto

Yeah, you need a 9v power supply, about 400mA up to 1A. That'll get the whole lot powered up.

Ok this might sound as a really stupid question but here it goes, I bought this type of cables please see the pic to connect to the FSKEY module for the switches... Was this a good idea?? Will it work??Thanks.Robertohttp://forums.avsim.net/user_files/75046.jpg

Negative Roberto... SorryThose are Floppy disk and IDE controller cables. They won't do.You will have to build your own, or ask someone else to build them for you. The FSBUS cables use 10 contacts. So you will have to buy PC connectors with 10 contacts (2x5) and some meters of the grey datacable.You will then cut it at the required length and using a press you will attach it to the connectors.Anyone with a digicam to show our friend here the correct cable/connector?George DorkofikisAthens, Greecehttp://www.precisionmanuals.com/images/forum/betaimg.jpg

Actually not for the contacts between cards cause those cables I have them I mean like to connect switches into the FSKEY etc...???Roberto

HELP PLEASE!! What is the best way to connect switches?Roberto

with wires my friend ;)as I can see from your pictures your FSkey card has 16 pin-connector (male) contacts on the print. Now you'll need a 16 pin female connector with a 16 wires of flatcable which you split up at one end and solder to the switches and on the other hand you got the female plug.

Yeah that

Saludos Roberto.This is the best idea to coonect rotary and keys to FS-KEY card with thoose ide cables. This will give you a change to arange cables neatly. So cut one end of cable and peel 3 lines for rotaries (knitter or ALPS) and 2 lines for pushbutons(For LEDs too). Then solder and insert that IDC coonector end to Key card, and open FS router, find each items by pressing Autosense.To give you an idea here is a picture:http://www.cesurkanat.com/resimler/big/ineterior.JPGHope this helps.RegardsRemzi OZTURK

Thanks man!! Thats exactly what I want to do!! Very nice setup man!! Thanks for the help!!Roberto

Oh... Now I got you...Thought you were talking about the FSCOM>FSKEY connection.Yes, of course you can use those. That's what I did too!George DorkofikisAthens, Greecehttp://www.precisionmanuals.com/images/forum/betaimg.jpg
