X-52 throttle buttons
« on: February 05, 2011, 10:35:21 AM »
Has anyone had any luck mapping the little mouse button on the back side of the throttle (Button 31) or the little scroll wheel on the front side (button 32)?  For a brief period (few minutes) I had them mapped to game functions but then they stopped working, and I don't remember how I did it in the first place.

They aren't even recognized in the AH control mapping.

AH will recognise  everything on the X52 (except the toggle) if you have game controller  control pad running in the back ground.

It will even see 8 progamable functions on your Multifunctional display and 3 on your mode switch. However I only use 1 & 3 on the mode switch and leave 2 as an off to avoid continuous inputs (use the mode switch  for bomb sight calibration).

To get the game controller the best way is to open the saitek software to the bottom right hand bar, right clik to select control panel then close the Saitek software (no profile running).

Out puts look like this you usethem as you wish.
