Saitek X45

Hiya All :)

Just got a new computer, D/L AH, and I'm reprogramming my stick.  When I enter stick mapping, B9 shows as shaded.  B9 is the first in a series of M# choices for a sliding button.  Position 1 (M1) is B9, position 2 (M2) is B10, and position 3 (M3) is B11.  As I switch back and forth between these three choices, the appropriate button (9, 10 or 11) gets shaded in the stick mapping window.

The probelm is, I can't map any buttons above B9 - B11, only buttons 1 through 8.  Any ideas on a work around?  I have to position this button in one of its three positions.  I think B22 and B23 are the same way.

Also, for my first flight, the cockpit art was real shaky, mainly when maneuvering, but the outside art (including wings) was smooth as silk.  Any idea what is causing this and how to fix it?

Cya Up!

Go to joystick selection (in AH setup) and check your AH vs. X45 button mappings or use Dhauzimmer's drivers and program your stick to send keystroke commands (so I do).

This switch has a default 9=0 10=1 11=1 input    hence 9 will never give you an input and 10 and 11 have an effective "and hold down" status.

If you use the profiler to set a default DX number for all the other button /switch actions excepting POV hat and  axis functions then the DX numbers will show as the button numbers in the AH set up screen........ and you can use them with the profiler switched off.
