Saitek Pro Rudder pedals

[Herb]

Hello Pete!

I added Ruder-pedals with toe-break L&R. with the latest driver for Win7/64 bit and Calibrate, assign to FSUIPC registered version. Why would the Elevator trim Show up under the rudder entry in FSX, also the Landing-Gear? Those Buttons are on my Joystick. See Attachment 2&3 please. I did read your documents in the last week again, but I don't understand all of it yet, please be patient. Do I have to clear (delete)all keys in FS Settings-Control when using FSUIPC? Below a Snipped of the Ini-file. Herb

Why would the Elevator trim Show up under the rudder entry in FSX, also the Landing-Gear?

No idea. I can't explain the default choices made by FS. They are defined in files in the FS folder someplace. You can reassign easily enough though. Check FS help if you don't understand FS.

I did read your documents in the last week again, but I don't understand all of it yet

What is there to understand that you need? If you are wanting to simply calibrate in FSUIPC, just follow the numbered steps. You don't need to read anything else.

Do I have to clear (delete)all keys in FS Settings-Control when using FSUIPC?

Keys? What does this have to do with rudder pedals and such? Keypresses are a totally separate subject. what do you want to do with those?

Well, you seem to have assigned some buttons and calibrated some axes. And I see you are ASSIGNING axes in FSUIPC too. Any good reason for that?

Certainly, if you assign buttons and axes in FSUIPC you should not also assign them in FS or you will get two, possibly conflicting, actions for each. If you don't want anything assigned in FS just disable the controllers there.

Hello Pete!

I'm trying to setup Sludges (Dream-Team) FA/18 Plane for Carrier Landings. This is a FS Stock plane Modified, new Hud Meatball and more. I like to operate Axis, Button & Switches from my Joystick for easy operation. I almost got it. Thank you for your help. Herb

So, do you have a question?

Hello Pete!

I did assign Elevator trim in FSUIPC Option and Settings to Joystick button #2-up and #3-down send to FS, but in FS Settings-Control window, it show as button 3 and 4, also under Keyboard Column, is a Num7 and Num1-- should there a entry at all? This part, I do not understand, when assign with FSUIPC is there a new entry in FS-setting-control window created? Herb

Windows and FSUIPC numbers buttons 0, 1, 2 ... whilst FS numbers them 1, 2, 3..., so they are the same.

However, you should NEVER have the same buttons programmed in both FS and FSUIPC. If the FS assignments are okay, why are you bothering with FSUIPC? You should delete one set or the other!

, also under Keyboard Column, is a Num7 and Num1-- should there a entry at all?

Of course. Num7 and Num1 are the default keyboard assignments for trim -- they have been for as long as I remember, right back to FS2 or FS3 days for sure.

This part, I do not understand, when assign with FSUIPC is there a new entry in FS-setting-control window created?

There is no way anything you do in FSUIPC will change any assignments in FS. You simply have not bothered to delete any FS assignments. FSUIPC has no control at all over what FS does in these areas -- it is entirely up to you!!

Hello Pete!

Thank you very much for the clarification for myself. Herb
