Hi all but especially Sticky,Some time back we had an interesting discussion here about how to program the CH USB hardware especially the Pro Throttle and yoke using CH's Control Manager software. I especially wanted to know how to be able to program a button in each of the 3 modes available. Despite a lot of cerebral output we never got to the bottom of it.
Well, I'm pleased to report that I seemed to have cracked it after a couple of very productive hours last night. It's still early days and it probably complicated enough to require a write-up to explain it all.
The real driving force behind wanting to understand how it works was Pete Dowson's excellent facility within FSUIPC to allow buttons and key strokes to be assigned to the plethora of FS commands he has made available. So Pete, a big thank you for giving us that!
In short I now have nine CH Control Manager devices available to me - one for each of the three CH devices - Pro Throttle, Pro Pedals and Yoke for each of the three modes the Pro Throttle can be switched to.
In between working, testing Radar Contact v3 and watching footie on the TV I now need to find time to write a document on how to get the most out of this great hardware. It's just a pity the CH Help Guide is so useless. Nowhere does it describe doing what I did last night.
Watch this space!
