IMPORTANT INFORMATION

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.
For a complete guide on how to program your Saitek controller, visit the Saitek website at www.saitek.com.
Features of Smart Technology Programming Software:

• 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

A WORD ON DRIVER UPDATES
From time to time there may be updates to the driver and programming software for this product.
You can check for the latest software updates by visiting the Saitek website and clicking on Downloads. A drop
down menu will appear. Select Drivers and Software.
FOR WINDOWS® XP USERS; DYNAMIC UPDATES:
You can check for Driver updates using Windows update. Click on Start on the bottom left hand corner of your
monitor and then select Windows Update from the menu. Click on Driver Updates then select from any of the
update options that appear in the centre of the window. When you have selected the relevant file to download go to
the left hand side of the window and select Review and Install Updates. Finally click on Install Now from the
centre section.
HOW TO TEST YOUR CONTROLLER
• You can do this at any time by Clicking on Start, then Settings and selecting Control Panel in Windows (XP
users may only need to click on Start and then Control Panel)
• Look for an icon called either Game Controllers or Gaming Options (XP users may have to click Printers
and Other Hardware first).
• Open the Game Controllers/Gaming Options window then the name of your controller should show up.
• Click on Properties and this will bring up the test screen.
• Moving your controller and pressing the buttons should result in a response in this screen; if it's responding in
there then you know that the controller is okay.
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.
