No installation of a joystick is required for a new type controller. It works with a USB port. However, some settings should be changed if an older type controller was previously installed so that the new one works well. Open a window as for installation of an old controller and highlight WingMan Precision USB driver. Click advanced button and set the WingMan Precision USB device. You can also remove the old 2-axis, 4-button joystic driver, just make sure that you will not use the old controller any more.

Old controller installation


Install a mouseware driver from the DEPHOS Applications CD (9.42.1 version). Restart the computer and configure the mouse.

Button Assignments

3: Context Menu/Alternate Select

scrolling size: None
Setting Scrolling size -> none is essential for a proper Z movement.

Mouse orientation
Since the optic sensor inside the mouse is not parallel to the mouse movement direction it is necessary to carry out an orientation. Select the orientation bookmark in the mouse set up dialogue. Click the [Set Orientation] button and move the mouse straight forwards.

Joystick installation (for old type 3D controller)
Open Control Panel Windows and select Gaming Options.
