I know the guy who makes them.... and I use one in my sim (I helped
develop the things) and they are pretty cool.  Especially from a
"no-programming-required" perspective.

The logic sounds a bit like PM systems.

	A rather expensive but working solution is the 64Output card
from Ruscool.

	 

	http://www.ruscool.co.nz/control_boards.html

	 

	I've been beta testing their 64-Out card and you can have up to
20 discreet FSUIPC 'events' trigger the Master Caution light. and/or
WARN lights. The card also supports 4 separate 'Cancel' functions.

	 

	It's not on the general market yet but if you tell them I sent
you, they may add you to their beta testing. (Card is $217.. For me,
worth the price cuz I aint getting any younger and I am pretty much done
with programming. Ever since I took that approach, my sim progress has
been lightning-quick)

	Justin, you might want to post a note in Peter Dowson's forum.
(don't 
	email him directly, he bites!)
