Futaba FUSBE1 10-Channel Analog PWM to S.BUS Signal Encoder  [FUSBE1]

The Futaba FUSBE1 is an accessory-grade S.BUS signal encoder that translates up to 10 separate analog PWM servo outputs into one S.BUS data line for use with Futaba S.BUS compatible receivers and systems.

As a wiring and signal consolidation device, the encoder lets you centralize multiple PWM-controlled servos onto a single S.BUS bus, cutting down on receiver port requirements and making internal wiring cleaner in scale models and complex builds. It acts as a bridge between conventional PWM servo channels and the S.BUS digital protocol, maintaining independent channel control while simplifying the signal route.

Installation is straightforward for installations that allow external signal encoders: secure the unit, connect each PWM output from servos or control modules to the encoder inputs, then run the single S.BUS output to the receiver. Check your transmitter and receiver manuals for S.BUS channel mapping and enable any required S.BUS mode so the encoder channels are recognized properly.

During system setup the encoder operates as a transparent passthrough for channel assignments rather than performing mixing or advanced control. Use your transmitter's mixing and subtrim options to set endpoints and centering while the encoder handles routing those signals onto the S.BUS network.
