• To start the instrument panel, start FSX on the server. You may need to allow FSX to act as
a server in the Firewall settings. If you have trouble connecting to this machine, temporar-
ily disable the Firewall to see if a connection can be made.
• On the client PC, start SaiFlightSimX.exe Locate at: C:\Program Files\Saitek\DirectOutput\
Note: If nothing appears to happen, open Task Manager and check that SaiFlightSimX.exe
is in the list of running Processes. If SimConnect cannot find or connect to the Server PC,
SaiFlightSimX.exe will only run very briefly and will not display any gauges. If this is the case
try disabling the Firewall.
Tip: If the client machine fails to connect, please check the Advanced Network Settings.
Navigate Control Panel > Network Connections > Local Area Connection. Select Properties.
Highlight Internet Protocol (TCP/IP) and Select Properties. Select Advanced. Select WINS
tab. Select Enable NetBIOS over TCP/IP. Select OK or Close and all opened windows.
