folder and you will see it open out to show 2 sub-folders - the Command List and Saitek X36
Flight Controller.
2 Click on the folder called Saitek X36 Flight Controller and a 3-D model of the controller will
appear on the screen.
3 If you place the mouse pointer on the 3-D model and hold down the left mouse button, you
can rotate the image.
4 Next, click on any control on the controller.You will see that the control turns blue (indicating
that it is ready for programming) and that the text boxes at the bottom of the screen show its
attributes (see the SGE diagram to see what each box denotes).
5 The long bar at the bottom of the screen is the Command Editor. Simply click on and high-
light the current keyboard setting and replace it by pressing the new keyboard command.
Note: If you look in the manual that came with your game, it will tell you what keyboard com-
mands are associated with what actions in the game.
WARNING: THE SGE AUTOMATICALLY SAVES THE CHANGES YOU MAKE WITHOUT THE
USE OF A SAVE BUTTON. THEREFORE, IF YOU MAKE A MISTAKE, SIMPLY HIGHLIGHT THE
COMMAND LINE AND TYPE IN THE CORRECT ENTRY.
