USB SWITCHING???

Featured Replies

Hello again!I prefer to have my USB yoke disabled when using "Slew". Rather than having to go to OPTIONS and mouse click CONTROLS, I thought that I would simply put a switch in the USB cable that goes from the yoke to the PC. Is there a make/break switch for USB cables? Any idea's anybody. I bet Yoss has a comment?TONY. U.K.

So what you really want to do, is go the Options -> Controls -> Assignments and on the JOYSTICKS tab, select SLEW mode and remove your yoke definitions there. It should not remove them from NORMAL mode.//Tuomas

I've thought about doing this for the multiple controllers I have.Probably could get away with just switching out the 5v dc and ground connection, i.e. a simple two pole switch, but, just to be thorough, a 4 pole switch (you can get them) would switch out all lines.

I used a switch to change from a CH usb yoke to a usb joystick. So it should work.John
