SCREEN DISPLAYS
HOW TO ASSIGN FLIGHT SIMULATOR X INSTRUMENT DISPLAYS TO THE PRO FLIGHT
INSTRUMENT PANEL
Once you have installed the Instrument Panel software and plugged the panel’s USB cable
into one or your PC’s free USB ports (or Saitek Pro ight yoke USB hub), the screen will show
a default scrolling display of Saitek Pro Flight products.
The Instrument Panel buttons and screen are now automatically congured to interact with
FSX software. When you open Microsoft FSX you will be asked “Do you trust this driver from
Saitek?” Click “Yes”. You will then be asked “Do you always want to load this plugin when
launching Flight Sim X?” Again, click “Yes”. The Instrument Panel screen display will switch
to show the aircraft Altimeter instrument. If your FSX software does not recognise the Instru-
ment Panel, unplug the USB cable and plug it back in.
If FSX appears not to load, this is because it is waiting for a prompt. To view the prompt
window, select it either by pressing Alt + tab or by clicking on the prompt on
the Windows task bar. The prompt reads “Microsoft Flight Simulator security warning: will
happen once after install”. Click Run and when asked “would you like to designate this mod-
ule?”, click yes and FSX will continue to load.

The Pro Flight Instrument Panel will not register automatically if you have installed the Pro
Flight Instrument Panel before installing FSX. To register the Pro Flight Instrument Panel with
FSX, click on the “Launch the Flightsim X plugin manually” icon to re-run the program.
You can select one of the above six screens to be displayed on the Flight Instrument Panel.
Press the cursor up or down buttons at the bottom centre of the panel to scroll through the
screen displays.
Additional buttons
The six buttons on the left of the Instrument Panel open additional cockpit screens or
displays when ying in FSX. Each button is labelled with the corresponding display to the
right of it. The Map, Main Panel, Radios and GPS buttons will open those screens or cockpit
panels when ying most aircraft. The panel 4 and 5 buttons will open different screens or
panels depending on the aircraft being own. Press the button once to open the panel or
screen and again to close it (except map where you must click on OK or press return to
close the map screen).
Note: Pressing any of the six buttons when FSX is not loaded will switch the
panel display off and on.
You can connect multiple Instrument Panels to your PC to show different cockpit displays
simultaneously. Each panel uses system resources - see Advanced options below to connect
multiple panels with maximum system performance.
Advanced options
If you have more than one PC connected to a LAN you can connect multiple instrument
panels to a secondary PC which will display ight information from Microsoft FSX running on
your primary PC. This can be useful to free up system resources for FSX.
Denitions
Server = The PC that will be running FSX and the
main Flight controllers attached.
Client = The PC that will be linked to the Server via
the LAN. The instrument panels will be connected to
this PC to alleviate the processing stress of having
multiple screens connected to one PC.
