Saitek Switch Panel doesn't work anymore

Post by FlightsimMic »

Hello dear simulation enthousiasts,

I recently purchased the C172 trainer to practice after my flying lessons (i will be getting my PPL ) and i am using it with:

FSX
REX 4
Western Europe texture Addon
HD Airport graphics Addon

Hardware:

Saitek Pro Yoke System
Saitek Switch panel

about to buy:

Saitek Cessna trim wheel
Saitek Radio stack

All is well, but whenever i am flying the Cessna 172 ( a great airplane btw), my Saitek Switch panel doesn't work anymore. Whatever i do , i can't seem to get it to work. What i have done however is:

- Remove the Switch panel from the Pro yoke system USB and add it directly to my computer USB
- Removed all Saitek drivers and install SPAD

With Spad it always says:

- Waiting FSX connection in the bottom right corner
- I have tried the setup suggested by users online, but these were to no avail unfortunately.

Can somebody explain what is going wrong and what i am doing wrong? If somebody would care to watch with me via for example Teamviewer, that would be greatly appreciated so i can use this great learning tool for practising :)

I am sure this will get asked many times btw and i apologise in advance!

Kind regards,

JackZ

Sounds like you have not installed Simconnect?
Have you installed the latest FSX Service Pack?
