2.3

Centring your joystick

1.

 

Turn off your computer before you connect your joystick to your computer, or your computer
may not be able to detect it.

2.

 

Before connecting your joystick to your computer, make sure you have only one game port (15-
pin connector) or one game card with multiple game ports. Otherwise, your joystick will not
function properly. Should you have more than one game port, disable all but one. You may
need to consult your owners' manual or computer manufacturer for disabling procedures.

3.

 

Unlike other pointing devices, the Trust Predator Extreme doesn't require driver software. As
long as your game port functions properly, your joystick should work automatically once you
plug it in.

4.

 

Before you start your game, adjust the trimmer controls at the bottom of the joystick to the
centre position. This trimmers adjust the horizontal (X) and vertical (Y) positions.

5.

 

Certain games may require you to specify that you are using the joystick as the control device,
and some games will have an option for centring the joystick. Follow the instructions in your
game manual for such installations or configuration procedures. If the object you want to
control moves to one direction when the joystick is in the central position, adjust the "X" or
"Y" trimmer to the opposite direction until you have the best setting.

2.4

Action Buttons

Four independent fire buttons are located on the control stick. The exact function each fire button
activates depends on your software program. Consult your software manual for a description of
each fire button. Some software programs utilize only one or two fire buttons.
