INTRODUCTION
Congratulations on buying the Saitek Pro Flight Throttle Quadrant. The Pro Flight Throttle Quad-
rant features realistic controls congurable for all the major ight simulation software to make
your ying experiences more realistic.
INSTALLING THE THROTTLE QUADRANT
First, screw the clamp to the throttle quadrant using the four
screws provided.You can screw the clamp to one of two sides of the
quadrant depending on how you want to mount the quadrant - either
in front and below your table or on top of it. Please note that whichever
way you choose to mount the quadrant, ensure that as you look at the unit the rocker switches
are at the bottom. Now tighten the throttle unit clamp screw mechanism until it is rmly attached
to your table (be careful not to overtighten the screw as you may damage the clamp).
Plug the throttle quadrant’s USB cable into one of your PC’s free USB ports (or Saitek Pro Flight
Yoke USB Hub).
Your throttle quadrant comes supplied with additional lever knobs to congure any combination
of throttle, aps, mixture or prop pitch. You can also buy additional quadrants to link together
for more complex multi-engined aeroplane congurations and we have included a 4-way
throttle knob which links 4 quadrant levers for control of 4-engined aircraft.

Driver updates
From time to time there may be updates to the driver and programming software for this prod-
uct. You can check for the latest software updates by visiting the Saitek website (www.saitek.
com) and clicking on Downloads. A drop-down menu will appear. Select Drivers and Software.
Enabling your controller in the game
Most games support game controllers, but typically default to the mouse and keyboard until
you go into the option menu within the game. The rst time you start a game after installing
your controller, go to the options menu within the main menu of the game and make sure your
controller is set up correctly. If you are having trouble working out how to do this, or if you’re
unsure whether the game itself supports game controllers, then please refer to the user manual
of that game for more help.

HOW TO ASSIGN QUADRANT CONTROLS TO FLIGHT SIMULATOR FUNCTIONS
As you will normally be using the Pro Flight Quadrant alongside another controller in Flight Sim-
ulator, you will need to ensure that you set the levers up correctly within the game. By default,
Flight Simulator will assign them to control the ailerons, elevator and throttle, which will normally
be in addition to that which your other controller is already controlling; this will cause problems!
To reassign the levers correctly, you must use the Assignments (Flight Simulator 2004) or
Controls (Flight Simulator X) screen within the game. This is accessed from the Settings menu
within the game.
When you access the Assignments/Controls screen in Flight Simulator, ensure that the Saitek
Pro Flight Throttle Quadrant is selected in the option labeled Joystick Type.
Now select Joystick Axes (Flight Simulator 2004) or Control Axes (Flight Simulator X) at the top
of the window.
Once you have done this, simply nd the command that you want to assign to your controller
from the list of commands, click it and then click the Change Assignment button. A window will
appear asking you to move the part of your controller that you want to assign to that command -
move the axis that you want to assign to that command and then click OK.
Tip: You must ensure that none of the levers are assigned to the Aileron Axis or Elevator Axis
commands, otherwise they will interfere with your other controller that you are using alongside
the Saitek Pro Flight Throttle Quadrant.
If you wish to reassign the toggle switches on the Quadrant to other functions then you must
use the Buttons/Keys tab at the top of the Assignments/Controls window.

For a complete guide on how to program your Saitek controller, visit the Saitek website at www.
saitek.com or look at the help tab on your programming software menu.
Features of Smart Technology programming software:
• Quick and easy setup in any game
• Personalize the controller settings for your favorite games
• Congure 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 and
you need more than one prole per device
• Program special moves with sophisticated timing features
• Special game setups available as ‘Proles’ from the Saitek website
What is a Prole?
A Prole 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. Pre-written Proles are 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 Proles, which are added regularly).
How do I program my controller?
After getting to know your controller, you can start creating your own personal Proles 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 Prole 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 reconguring of your buttons.
Getting Started
1. Double-click on the Saitek Smart Technology icon the install left on your desktop.
2. In the Prole 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 ashing, 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 Prole Editor window.
5. Give the prole a name (it is recommended you name it after the game for which the prole is
intended) and then click Save.
6. To enable the prole either click the blue Prole Now icon at the top of the Prole Editor or
right-click on the controller icon in your taskbar and select the name of the prole from the
pop-up list of options.
7. You will notice that when a prole is loaded that the controller icon in your taskbar has a
green square behind it, indicating that a prole is currently loaded. If you wish to unload a
prole simply right-click on the controller icon and click Clear
Prole from the pop-up list of options.
If you require more detailed assistance with using the SST Programming Software,click on Help
at the top of the Prole Editor and then Manual.
