X52 profile setup

[Denco]

Hi guys

 

Can anyone tell me how I can program different modes because I'm having a small issue.

 

I'm trying to program POV 2 in mode 1 to turn on cockpit lights etc, while I want to program it to coolio commands in mode 2. The issue I'm having is that it overrides my mapping for mode 1 and vica versa.

 

Am I missing something?

 

Thanks in advance.

I have another question. I'm using a profile that maps the airbrakes to the precision slider and it works great.

 

Now the problem is when I try to do the same in my own profile I can only get it to open and close. I can't stop it in the middle of closing/opening. I'm trying to copy the profile I'm mentioning above but just can't get it to work.

Try setting it up like this. I tested it and it works for me. The zone in the middle is dead and should allow you to stop there with no action. Sliding full forward or back should open or close.

This is what I tried but failed. I did accidentally made more than 3 tabs and I think that's what is causing the issue. I shall try again with a new profile since I don't know how to delete any extra tab I make under blands.

 

Thanks for all the help Blooze :thumbup:

Hi Denco. On my A-10C profile I made, I set airbrakes to toggles 5 and 6. It works fine there, and if I want it open full I hold down the toggle 6. I can stop it at any time to open it partway by holding it down for less time, or even closing it somewhat with toggle 5.

 

I think I know the profile you were using with the precision slider, but I really hate it in that position because if you forget to push the slider back to the middle position, your joystick won't let you use any other buttons (like the ever important wheel brakes for instance).

 

By the way to delete extra bands there is an edit bands. To the left are some icons that allow you to set it back to one band, then you can add what you need.

I know I had issues with this at the beginning too :lol: But now I got used to it and never forget to push it back to the middle. It feels very natural.

I set my zones up with a timed output, think it's like 6.5 seconds, which is enough for it to open or close fully, if I do forget to slide it back to the middle, I can still enter commands after it is completed. If I only want them open a little bit, then I have to slide it back to the center to stop.

 

You just need to create a New advanced command and adjust the timings after you set it up. Then assign it to the band on the slider.
