VKB-SIM

Good day,

today i recieved my T-Rudder MK IV.
After 2h of troubleshooting, googling and trying to find the correct firmware i finally managed the axis to work but now my VKB-Sim Gladiator Pro Mk.II does not recognise the TMW-Adapter anymore and the red led is flashing rapidly. I guess wrong firmware but there is no firmware for the "Glad. Pro mk II + TMW" in the zip file with all the firmwares. I see files with TMW in the name but those are for the Gunfigher only and there are also no files for the Glad Pro mkII.

- VKB-Sim Gladiator Pro Mk.II (visible as VKBsim Gladiator Pro XT v2.090 in VKB Dev Config)
- TMW-Adapter with TM Warthog Stick


- i get constant 100% Communication ErrorLevel and a fast flashing red LED
- Axis and buttons on the base work but stick is dead

If the rudders are new they don't need flashing; but for future reference, if you'll ever need to reflash them use the firmware file _BlackBox_MK2_TRudder_vx_xx.vkb (make sure there's an 'MK2' in title).
Assuming you have a Gladiator Pro and not a Gladiator MKII (so you should have metal gimbal inside), then flash this firmware: _Gladiator_KG12_Pro_vx_xx.vkb. After flashing navigate to Global/External/ExternalDevices an click on the name of the grip KG12 (just beside ExternalDevices tab); now pull down the menu underneath and chose TMW Adapter. Click Set button to save the changes and calibrate.
If you want to use the rudders together with the joystick simply plug them into the joystick base and calibrate.

It says GLADIATOR PRO MkII on the bottom and i have the rudder plugged into the glad.

Aaaaaaand i did everything except push the "set" button...

It works now, thank you very much!

The T-Rudder didnt work and didnt get recognised and after some searching on the web i found the advice to flash the firmware of the Glad to make them show up. An hour later i found a thread telling me to press "default" which fixed it but also wiped the Glad

1. Flash Gladiator Pro as mentioned above;
2. Press Default button;
3. Change the grip to TMW Adapter and press Set;
4. Plug the rudders and calibrate both joystick and rudders.
