Master Mode, Gate Switch, and Brake Axes Inop

Hi,

I was having an issue with the roll axis on my Gunfighter Mk1 w/MCG Pro. All other axes were working fine. It had an older firmware drop, so I downloaded what I think is the latest (BlackBox_GF_MCG_PRO_v1_93_6), and performed the upgrade.

Afterward, I performed a calibration, IAW this post: viewtopic.php?f=27&t=2853

Since then, the Master Mode switch, Gate Switch, and Brake lever only register as buttons. The axes don't move anything within VKB Dev Cfg, or Joy tester.

I've tried re-calibrating twice. What do I need to do to get the axis functionality back? Specifically the Gate Switch, and Brake Lever. I like having them act as both an axis, and provide a button press.

Fallout, thanks. I was using an old FTP hyperlink saved in my favorites for the firmware/software. I guess I wasn't up to speed on the latest with VKB. Flashed, and seems to be working fine. I just have to reprogram the grip to get it back the way I like it.
