Issues with Space Throttle - Calibration & Detents
Posted: Fri Mar 28, 2025 8:48
I have two issues with the Space Throttle
1- VKBDevCfg Device Configurator v0.93.26 does not recognize the Space Throttle (Mini Plus Configuration) as a Space throttle when connected to the GNX SEM module. If SEM module is disconnected Pressing "Default" correctly identifies the Space Throttle but once you connect the SEM it identifies as a S-TECS Modern Throttle Mini Plus SEM XT2. This means the calibration instructions are mismatched with the actual physical throttle, and make it difficult to determine if the device is calibrating all axes/hats properly or not
2- Installing and setting up detents, the DNT light doesn't work consistently. I have two detents, one W and one L setup. The first time I setup the two detents, the DNT light was always green, except when inside the deadzone of the L detent, when it became red. The second time I setup, the DNT light would only be green inside the dead zone of the W and only red when inside dead zone of L, otherwise not lit. I much prefer this configuration. However, due to issues trying to resolve the calibration/detection issue above, I lost this setup and the detent reverted to the first type (always green except when in deadzone of L). I would like to be able to control this but don't see any settings or any instructions anywhere on where the indicator lights could be controlled to differentiate between detent deadzone 1, deadzone 2 and no detent. Appreciate advice.
