Step-By-Step procedure of making bands with Saitek products

I'm not really sure about how much you people need this, but, here I go... :D

I also posted that on LOCKONFILES

1. Open your SST Profile by right-clicking on the SST icon in your taskbar:

2. Scroll to the desired axis you would like to set as bands:

3. You get something like this:

4. Click with your mouse somewhere in this area (that way you set the span of the band; it can be edited afterwards):

5. Bands could look like this:

6. It is important that you click the green checkmark, otherwise your bands won't be saved:

7. Then you can program each band with a keystroke, macro or an advanced command:

8. Then you save your profile as usual:

9. And apply your profile to the HOTAS/Pedals:

10. Enjoy your flight! :)

Well done mate, this helps alot

Forgive my ignorance, but the language barrier is in the way and a translation was not helpfull :)

What means "bands" in this case ?

I'll give you some synonims, maybe it will help :smilewink:

amplitude, band, coverage, extent, incidence, perimeter, range, reach, scale, span, spread, volume...

So, every part of the axis corresponds to some input you can define. You split it to several parts

OK, thats what I assumed. I think I got the idea now.

Thx

:thumbup:

What keystrokes, macros etc. would one typically assign to these "bands?"

segmented ratios of the total movement of the dial is call a a band in this case.

I have Zoom view mapped in bands because the LOMAC axis jitters and shakes CONSTANTLY. (TrackIR 2 Pro) Rock solid and easy to control this way.

The MFD range axis doesn't work right in the SU25t, but I cannot make it work right with bands either ATM. I even tried mapping a blank band between each active one- it crashes the whole computer.

Thanks Konkussion and yes I hear you. That was why I had actually asked the question. I had tried a while back mapping certain things to the "bands" but have had the same issues as you describe. I finally gave up and figured no one else must use them either.

I don't know why LOCKON would not be able to handle this.:(
