We've therefore included the facility for you to change various settings on your stick and throttle units.
You can, for example, vary the brightness of the LED buttons, check your stick is working correctly or change the way the date is displayed on your Multi-Functional Display MFD. You change your controller settings in the Saitek X52 Flight Stick properties window. There are two ways you can open this window.
The Saitek X52 Flight Stick properties window consists of five separate tabs. You can view and change various controller settings in each tab. The settings you can change are described in the following sections. You can make sure that the various features of your controller are working correctly. The way you do this varies, depending on what the feature does. It may, for example, involve pressing the corresponding button, or turning the corresponding rotary control.
The vertical gray line represents the center point of the flight stick. Rotate the. Rotate the rotary controls on the throttle unit.
These are user-defined via the SST. You may, for example, use them to control fuel mixture. You can make sure button presses are being detected by the drivers. Press each button on your flight stick or throttle unit that you want to test, in turn. The corresponding numbered disc lights up in the Buttons panel of the Test tab.

See the SST programming software manual for details. The numbered boxes in the Toggle Switches panel illuminate when you press the toggle switches on your flight stick unit. The three red boxes in the Mode panel indicate which mode is currently selected.
The top box represents mode 1, the middle box mode 2 and the lower box mode 3. Make sure your mode selector switch is working correctly by rotating the switch to change modes. The corresponding box in the Mode panel illuminates. Moving the POV controls on your flight stick in the various directions should illuminate the corresponding direction arrows in the POV panel. POV 1 is used to look around the cockpit.
POV 2 can be configured to trigger four or eight different functions of your choice. You can also make sure that movements of the Throttle Hat control cause the corresponding direction arrows in the POV panel to illuminate. As for POV 2, the throttle hat control can be configured to trigger four or eight different functions of your choice.
The ministick on the throttle unit is used to perform actions you would otherwise use your mouse for. You can create deadzones for each range and axis your controller features move in. They reduce interference that may be caused by unintended movements of the flight stick and other controls. For example, you may want to move your stick in the X axis only, but find it difficult to avoid moving it in the Y axis as you do so. You can set up a deadzone in the Y axis so that these minor movements are not detected by the drivers.
A deadzone is a part of the range in which an axis moves that is not detected by the drivers and so has no effect on the game in progress. It may be around the center point of the range, or at either end.
Each axis is represented by a white box that contains a red line that represents where the control is currently sitting. Moving the corresponding control moves the red line. Use this line to determine exactly where your deadzone must begin and end. Beneath each box is a sliding scale. You use this to specify the size of each deadzone. The area that represents the deadzone is shaded gray.
Use the sliders at either end to create deadzones at either end of the axis. Tips: By default, clicking on either the right or the left slider in the pair moves both sliders. You can change. To do this, right-click anywhere in the white box and select Link Deadzones from the popup list of options displayed.
Repeat this to link the pairs of sliders again. You can clear existing deadzones for an axis by right-clicking anywhere in the white box and selecting Clear Deadzone.
