Can Your FSUIPC read our RS232 to send and receive data? Only if you write a driver to do it. FSUIPC is not a hardware driver. The only "hardware" it recognises at all is the Windows joystick API. You'll need a program to handle the data transmission and reception on your COM port and read/write FSUIPC offsets accordingly. You can write in whatever language you like, it is irrelevant to FSUIPC. You could even se the Lua plug-in facilities in FSUIPC to write it -- it has a COM library with functions for serial and USB ports. We Have MCDU too. can it Connect via FSUIPC? No. FSUIPC has no facilities for output data unless you write a program to do it. FSUIPC provides the interface into FS data, reading and writing, for programs which wish to do so, whether drivers for hardware or other software on the same or (via WideFS) difference Networked PCs. Sorry, but you do appear to be under a complete misapprehension of what FSUIPC actually is and does. Pete Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
