Searching for help to create a FS DMX dll Plugin

Hello,
I build a very usefull RGBW-Controller/DMX-Receiver/DMX-Transmitter board. You can read about it here (sorry, only german): http://www.ledstyles.de/ftopic7112.html
It has a RS-232 Interface and could be controlled by the com-port of a PC. That all works fine. I use my own communication-routine with 6 bytes (all DEC values):
1. Startbyte = must be 255
2. DMX-Value-1 = must be from 0 to 254
3. DMX-Value-2 = must be from 0 to 1
4. DMX-Channel-1 = must be from 0 to 254
5. DMX-Channel-2 = must be from 0 to 254
6. DMX-Channel-3 = must be from 0 to 4
That is one communication routine, with this you can send any value and channel to my controller. It would put it in a DMX-Buffer and send it out per DMX-Interface.
My question now is, how can I connect and controll my board with freestyler? Someone made a little programm for me to controll my board and use it as ambilight. So the communication works perfect, but how can I integrate that in FS?
Thanks for all help and excuse me for my bad english!
Benny.
