FSUIPC wont recognize stick part of Saitek X55 HOTAS

[chris4884]

Ive just got an X55, at first everything worked fine, but suddently FSUIPC would not recognize the stick when calibrating.

It appears after I looked in the .ini file, it recognizes it as 2 throttle units.

The ini containes this:

How do you work that out? The INI file sees two different X-55 installations:

 

0=Saitek Pro Flight X-55 Rhino Throttle

0.GUID={FB4BBC80-F235-11E3-8007-444553540000}

1=Saitek Pro Flight X-55 Rhino Throttle

1.GUID={FB4CCDF0-F235-11E3-8008-444553540000}

 

How you arrived at that I don't know, but maybe you are trying to assign "the wrong one". I suspect you should uninstall both of them (using Widesows' devce manager) and let it be re-installed.

 

If there's still a problem it's to do with the way the Saitek drivers install -- a matter for Saitek support.

The X55 is a HOTAS, so it uses two USB ports, might be the cause of the two registrations. It should be registering a throttle and a stick
I have tried uninstalling and installing both the drivers and devices. Not helping. 
Might try Saitek Support.

Thanks Pete
