![]() ![]() However, whether you choose to install SST or not, along with the necessary driver(s) is the programming driver as well. The Saitek Smart Technology profile editor is optional, and unnecessary. When the yoke or joystick is first installed you do not have to install the SST profile editor, only the drivers. The programming driver is not the same as the Saitek Smart Technology profile editor program. Outside of the SST profile editor, however, the Mode Switch does not work, and this is because Saitek designed their programming driver so that Windows would hide the Mode Switch function in order that their software would have exclusive access. As an example, for the trigger switch, using the SST profile editor you might program Mode 1 for firing guns, Mode 2 for firing rockets, and Mode 3 for firing missiles. The Mode Switch was intended to triple the amount of keybindings/controls that you could program. There is a reason for that, and a solution as well. ![]() Everything else will work, just not the Mode Switch*. Windows' Game Controller setting (joy.cpl) will show the Mode Switch as functioning, yet your game or third-party programming software (like LINDA or FSUIPC) will not recognize any input-programmed or native-from the Mode Switch. For anyone using the Saitek/Logitech Pro Flight Yoke, the X52 HOTAS, or the X52 Pro HOTAS, you've most likely encountered difficulties with the Mode Switch when using anything other than the Saitek Smart Technology profile editor. ![]()
