Raven434th Posted August 1, 2019 Share Posted August 1, 2019 (edited) trying to assign button 5 but it doesn't register in the controls assignment panel...all other buttons are seen and button 5 works in other games.Also I have an X-55 which is a hotas...only half of the hotas is recognized(it has 2 parts therefor 2 usb connections) tried to assign key inputs to the rudder twist on the joystick via profile and that doesn't get recognized either.worked in 4.0.

Members Ssnake Posted August 1, 2019 Members Share Posted August 1, 2019 What kind of a button is it? Just a "press to signal" thing, or something analog, a switch, ...? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Raven434th Posted August 1, 2019 Author Share Posted August 1, 2019 I just put the stick on another system with SB pro 4.0 and it sees joystick button 5 so the stick is good....gonna reinstall 4.0 on this system to see if its a driver issue or SB issue. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Raven434th Posted August 1, 2019 Author Share Posted August 1, 2019 Ok driver refresh fixed the button 5 problem...now working on other issues 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lt DeFault Posted August 1, 2019 Share Posted August 1, 2019 I use the manufacturer's programming software (Saitek SD6 Profile Editor) with my X52. I'm not sure if they make a version for the X55 or X56 - mine doesn't list them. But if they do, I'd recommend using it. It gives you many more options in terms of assigning functions to the stick and throttle. For instance: I was able to set the throttle to control the speed of a vehicle. It took some doing but in the end, I was able to use it as a true HOTAS for SB. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Raven434th Posted August 1, 2019 Author Share Posted August 1, 2019 (edited) problem is that SB doesn't recognize more than 1 controller...X-55 is two components( 2 usb connections) not one unlike the X-52 which was all 1 unit ( 1 usb connection)  I managed to solve the rudder problem by switching from joystick to control handles and using the profile software. So I can steer using twist Edited August 1, 2019 by Raven434th 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lt DeFault Posted August 1, 2019 Share Posted August 1, 2019 Ahh ... bummer. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Raven434th Posted August 1, 2019 Author Share Posted August 1, 2019 OK...Controller handles also solved the throttle issue(I think) still messing about. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Raven434th Posted August 1, 2019 Author Share Posted August 1, 2019 Ok...so joystick doesn't recognize profiles but handles do...dunno why?..anyway it seems BOTH usb components work under this config. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
