Hi,

Just installed the Warthog adapter for the Gladiator Pro and I've flashed the base using _Gladiator_VKB_v1_81_7.vkb and uploaded the GLPro_W_A7_B37_HAT0 profile.

I've notied that not all the buttons on the Warthog are registering specifically:

All buttons on the VKB base are registering.

Is there anything that I'm missing from the setup process?

Please launch VkbDevCfg.exe and show screenshots of Action - Global - Common and ...External tabs.

Try to set RegN to 2 instead of 1.
PS
I do not see ...External - External devices tab. Near LEDs. There is counter RegN too. Try to increase its value too. I have not Glad with me so must guess))
Check your zconfig.ini file saved in the same folder with VkbDevCfg. String User=Developer in [User] section must be present. If no, add it. Restart tool of course.

Hi Victours ...

Spoke too soon ... few things:

1) Button are are not registering in game (DCS, Elite, Star Citizen), just noticed it now, don't know if it stopped after the config change.

2) Every time I load the VKBConfigUtility it tells me to update the firmware, even though I've done this many times.

3) Wizzo still doesn't show all the buttons working, but they're showing up in VKBConfigUtility under the TEST tab, is that normal?

The extreme beta version can be taken here, in the archive 1.82.rar batch.
Wizzo, like the Windows applet, does not display more than 32 buttons. You have been declared 37. Configurator shows all 128 buttons.

Try this version http://forum.vkb-sim.pro/download/file.php?id=4695.
Do you see buttons in other games? Or Windows applet?

No, the buttons shown in the image from my OP with a red cross are not working in game, but the ones that do showed button #33, #34 etc.

I upload the firmware you linked (_Gladiator_VKB_v1_83_5.vkb) but the configuration tool crashed, and now the red light is constantly blinking and nothing registers, not even the axis. I've tried several times but it's the same result.

I've also tried to re-flash to the previous version but the bootloader is always crashing now.

I am sorry((( Had not internet((( At all((( No Skype, no mail, no Il-2, no support for several days(((
I have tried v.1.835 and everything was OK. How do you try to flash? From vkbdevcfg.exe?
What device does vkbdevcfg.exe recognizes? If Gladiator, please show Profile-Buttons - Physical Layer.

Check Poll and try to push buttons. You will see button number flashing. If No Function is chosen for this button, it will not be recognized. Click this cell and choose Button from combobox in Button Mapping Wizard. Then click Set.

Connect the joystick thru USB hub.

Yes, prior to the problem I have now, only the VKB was recognised in the config tool.

I have managed to flash it back to the previous version and things are stable now, but I just can't get v1835 to work - I always get a red blinking light. Could it be the wiring inside the Warhog grip?

I don't have one but I'll buy one over the next few days and see if that helps.
