Hello everybody, I wa stoo early with my question and found the solution. Indeed it was the VISTA service-pack! To make the mode switch working in FSUIPC it is necessaray to rename the file SaiDOBAC.pro as I learned from a psotin in this forum: "With the driver installed for the clock (without the software), all you have to do is rename the file C:\Windows\System32\SaiD0BAC.pr0 and unplug/plug in the yoke. I've been using this method since I bought my yoke and it works great."( (jordanal on dec 27th) Now what happened ist that the VISTA Service Pack somhow wrote again a SaiDOBAC.pro in the System 32 directory. Just renamed it again and verything worked. Greeetings, Wolfgang

Hi mtjoeng, After your last posting I had two busy evenings, but then I succeeded in programming some buttons in compound mode. Here is the result: [buttons] ; PAN - ALL Modes 1=R0,32,C65734,0 ; PAN_UP 2=R0,33,C65856,0 ; PAN_RIGHT_UP 3=R0,34,C65672,0 ; PAN_RIGHT 4=R0,35,C65857,0 ; PAN_RIGHT_DOWN 5=R0,36,C65735,0 ; PAN_DOWN 6=R0,37,C65855,0 ; PAN_LEFT_DOWN 7=R0,38,C65671,0 ; PAN_LEFT 8=R0,39,C65854,0 ; PAN_LEFT_UP ; SWITCH MODE 1- VIEW Mode 9=CR(+0,8)0,2,C65655,0 ; zoom in 10=CR(+0,8)0,3,C65656,0 ; zoom out 11=CR(+0,8)0,0,K8,8 ; view reset 12=CU(+0,8)0,0,K32,10 ; zoom reset 13=CP(+0,8)0,1,K83,8 ; View next categorie 14=CP(+0,8)0,7,K121,8 ; 2-D panel 15=CP(+0,8)0,6,K120,8 ; 3-D panel 16=CP(+0,8)0,4,K65,8 ; Next View in Categorie 17=CP(+0,8)0,5,K87,8 ; 2-D Cockpit (cycly panels) 18=CR(+0,8)0,14,C66528,0 ; Eyepoint forward 19=CR(+0,8)0,15,C66529,0 ; Eyepoint back 20=CR(+0,8)0,16,C66524,0 ; Eyepoints UP 21=CR(+0,8)0,17,C66525,0 ; Eyepoint down 22=CR(+0,8)0,18,C66527,0 ; Eyepoint left 23=CR(+0,8)0,19,C66526,0 ; Eyepoint right 24=CP(+0,8)1,5,K80,8 ; Pause 25=CP(+0,8)1,2,K121,9 ; Sound on/off 26=CP(+0,8)1,3,K90,9 ; Framerate Cycle 27=CP(+0,8)1,4,K81,8 ; Kneeboard 28=CP(+0,8)1,1,K44,8 ; PrintScreen - snapper ; SWITCH MODE 2- CONTROL Mode 29=CP(+0,9)0,0,C65564,0 ;ATC 30=CP(+0,9)0,1,C65580,0 ; Autopilot Master 31=CP(+0,9)0,2,C66079,0 ; Gear UP 32=CP(+0,9)0,3,C66080,0 ; Gear Down 33=CP(+0,9)0,4,K117,8 ; Flaps increase 34=CP(+0,9)0,5,K118,8 ; Flaps decrease [Axes] 0=0X,256,D,1,0,0,0 1=0Y,256,D,2,0,0,0 2=0Z,256,D,9,0,0,0 3=0U,256,D,10,0,0,0 4=0V,256,D,17,0,0,0 5=1X,256,D,18,0,0,0 6=1Y,256,D,13,0,0,0 7=1Z,256,D,14,0,0,0 8=2X,256,D,7,0,0,0 9=2Y,256,D,8,0,0,0 10=2R,256,D,3,0,0,0 But now everything seems to have been in vain, because FSUIPC doens´t recognize the mode switch of the SAITEK yoke any more. I have no idea what the reason could be. In the windows joystick control panel the mode switch is recognized but not in FSUIPC. When I open "buttons and switches" in FSUIPC and I move the mode switch, nothing happens any more. What could be the reason.? All I changed is, that I installed VISTA Service Pack 1. Can it be due to this operation? Regards, Wolfgang

Thank you, the last posting will keep me busy for some time!

Thomas, I see, that not diffrential breaks, but breaks are indicatedin nthe lower left of the screen, when I start on the runway, but I have now idea what you are speaking of - deltazone etc. What I am now working on, is to activate the mode switch on the Saitek Yoke, to get a triple amount of commands. There are several postings in this forum teaching you what to do, that FSUIPC recognizes the mode switch as a switch and there is an fsuioc.ini file as an example as well. I tried it out, but what I found was, that changing the mode switch itself generated obscure result, it changed the etc. Have you got an idea what the reasin can. be? As I saw, you have nearly the same hardware as I have, sou couldn´t you post your FSUIPC.ini file? As you seem to live in Dormund we could use German, but may be ist better for the rest of the guys around to continue with english. Greetings, Wolfgang

Oh yes, thank you, that was it!

Hello, I am new in this forum, perhaps somebody can help me- I am using FSX on an Vista 32 PC. I bought the SAITEK Yoke, a separat throttle quadrant and the SAITEK rudder-pedal. As advised in diffrent postings I disabled all the joystick commands in FSX, dont use the SAITEK software and programmed everything through FSUIPC (latest version, registered user). No everything works fine, except the breaks. As I understood the the rudder pedals are programmed as axis. One axis for the ailerons (works fine) and a second acis for the breaks, tipping the left an right pedals. What happend now is: the plane won´t move because the breaks are on. When I tip both pedals all teh way down, the breaks are released and the plane moves. The breaks, of course should operate vice-verse. I have no idea how to fix it. Has anyone got an idea? Greetings Wolfgang
