Joystick Button 197

Post by Robert_Blanchet »

Hello,

I just received my grip and mk2 ultra base and I'm in the process of setting it up. I'm having an issue where in Microsoft Flight Simulator 2020 when I go to bind a button from the Joystick it immediately populates with "Joystick Button 197". I could populate each binding manually but this is incredibly tedious versus just pressing the joystick button I want to bind. And I'm concerned that this isn't correct behavior to begin with and there might be some kind of configuration or hardware problem.

I've updated the base to the latest firmware.

Sorry about this. I was able to figure out what the issue is. Sort of.

I have a Wooting keyboard that has a mode to emulate a gamepad because the keyboard switches use a magnetic sensor for each key it can get analog data from how much I am pressing a key or not. Which is really cool. But apparantly because of this there is some sort of conflict between the keyboard and the FFSB hardware. By disabling the keyboard gamepad emulation it appears to have addressed the issue.
