See the button programming section of the FSUIPC Advanced User's guide. I'm sure others have done this before. Take a look in the User Contributions subforum, or do a bit of searching.

Pete Pete, You are correct wrt programming multiple actions for a Saitek yoke button/switch using the MODE switch (3 position wheel switch). I just want to pass on that, for reasons I don't understand, in order for FSUIPC to "see" (respond to) the Saitek Mode switch, you have to go into the folder C:\Windows\System32 (assuming the C drive is where Windows is), and find a file called SaiD0BAC.PRO, and either rename this file, or if you prefer back it up somewhere and then delete it from the System32 folder. I simply renamed mine SaiD0BACmodeswitch.PR0 and left it in the original System32 folder. Then restart Windows and FSX, open FSUIPC and go to the Buttons + Switches section and flip the mode switch – FSUIPC should now register the switch when it moves. I do everything through FSUIPC and don't use any of the Saitek software or create Saitek profiles, so whatever the SaiDOBAC.PRO file does (besides hiding the Mode switch from FSUIPC), I don't need it. Once in a while, again for a reason I don't understand, a new copy of the SaiD0BAC.PRO file turns up in the Systems32 folder and my Mode switch no longer works, so I have to go through the above procedure again. This info was passed on to me by another FSUIPC/Saitek yoke user, so I'm doing the same. Sometimes we just have to settle for whatever works, even if we don't know why! :razz: Hope this helps someone, Al Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
