PROGRAMMING YOUR SAITEK CONTROLLER WITH SAITEK SMART TECHNOLOGY PROGRAMMING SOFTWARE

Introducing Saitek Smart Technology Programming Software

Saitek Smart Technology Programming Software (SST) is the software Saitek supplies to configure your Saitek controller for enhanced functionality. SST delivers a powerful set of features, allowing you to program your device with the ultimate configuration for total interaction. Despite a level of sophistication previously unseen in the market, and because of the Saitek Smart Technology inside, the software remains simple and intuitive to use.

Features of Smart Technology Programming Software:

• Quick and easy setup in any game

• Personalize the controller settings for your favorite games

• Configure your controller with an on-screen 3D model and interface

• Multiple setup option for each controller - ideal if a controller is used by several people

ENABLING YOUR CONTROLLER IN GAME

Most games support game controllers, which you can enable by using a [control] options menu within the Main Menu of the game itself. If you are having trouble working out how to do this or if you're unsure whether the game being used supports game controllers, please refer to the user manual for that game for more help.

NOTE: Even if the game you are using does not support game controllers, it is possible to make the controller work in that game using the Saitek Smart Technology programming software (only installed if you chose to be an Advanced User when installing). Using the programming software allows you to program your controller with keyboard and mouse commands, enabling it to work in those games that only have support for keyboards and mice. For help using this powerful programming software, consult the Programming Your Saitek Controller with Saitek Smart Technology Programming Software section in this manual.

TROUBLESHOOTING

Q My computer is not recognizing the Saitek Controller – what’s wrong? A 1. Have you installed the drivers on the CD supplied with this product?

2. Check the cable connections. Unplug your controller and plug it back in, making certain that it is securely attached.

3. Have you tested your controller? Please refer to the "How to Test Your Controller" section in this manual for further information

Q2 The game I am playing does not recognize my controller - what's wrong? A 1. Ensure that you have conducted the checks in Q1 [above]

PS1U+ - X45 Manual SD3.qxd 30/01/2004 08:42 Page 7

• Program special moves with sophisticated timing features

• Special game setups available as ‘Profiles’from the Saitek website and on the Smart Technology CD

• Download the latest version of Saitek Smart Technology software from the Saitek website

What is a Profile?

A Profile is a custom setup for improved gameplay – consisting of a set of commands that are pre-assigned to the buttons or axes of your controller. There are over two hundred pre-written Profiles available on the Product Companion Disk that accompanies this device or on the Saitek Website – www.saitek.com. (Please check the website for new or improved Profiles, which are being added regularly).

How Do I Program My Controller?

After getting to know your controller, you can start creating your own personal Profiles with the Saitek Smart Technology programming software (SST). This software has virtually unlimited programming capabilities and allows you to customize the controller to your exact gaming needs.

The Profile Editor allows you to program the buttons on your controller to perform different actions within your games – this is especially useful if the game you are using does not have its own screen that allows reconfiguring of your buttons.

Getting Started

1 Double-click on the Saitek Smart Technology icon the install left on your desktop. 2 In the Profile Editor, choose the control to which you wish to assign a keyboard command. You do this by left-clicking on the control’s cell in the

control list on the right of the screen. 3 With the cursor flashing, type in the key commands and then click on the green tick mark when complete. 4 Repeat this procedure for all the buttons you would like to program and then click File, Save at the top of the Profile Editor window. 5 Give the profile a name (it is recommended you name it after the game for which the profile is intended) and then click Save. 6 To enable the profile either click the Profile Now icon at the top of the Profile Editor (it looks like a black and yellow crosshair) or right-click on the

controller icon in your taskbar and select the name of the profile from the pop-up list of options. 7 You will notice that when a profile is loaded that the controller icon in your taskbar has a green square behind it, indicating that a profile is

currently loaded. If you wish to unload a profile simply right-click on the controller icon and click Clear Profile from the pop-up list of options.
