Press a button on your controller and it will highlight the corresponding button cell and show you what that button does in the game.

If you are using XP, this is in the Shared Documents folder, Vista users will find theirs in Public Documents. These need to be downloaded to your Saitek SD6 Profile folder. Our website contains ready made profiles for the latest games releases. Your controller will require a profile for each game you want play. This set of assignments can then be saved as a document, called a profile. SST allows you to assign the keyboard and mouse commands from your game, to your controller. This guide gives you the basic knowledge to get you up and running as soon as possible, with the least amount of stress and confusion that any new software can often cause. For example flight simulators like FSX and IL-2. In addition, some games, although they understand controllers, use additional keyboard commands that can be programmed to your controller using SST. SST therefore lets you play these games using your Saitek controller. These games only understand key presses, mouse movements and mouse clicks. Some games, however, do not support game controllers - for example, Call of Duty 4.

It also allows you to manually configure the controllers buttons and axes from within the game setup menu (see game manual for how to configure controllers).

This will allow the controller to be automatically detected by the game you want to play. Games like Tomb Raider, Microsoft Flight Simulator X, Dead Space and Race Driver: Grid, will have game controller support built into the game software. This is all done without you having to take your hands off of the controller. When you press buttons on the controller, or move the joystick, SST will make key presses, mouse movements, and mouse clicks as if you had: typed keys on the keyboard, moved the mouse, or pressed mouse buttons yourself. SST enables you to link keyboard keys, mouse buttons and mouse movement to the buttons and axes of your Saitek controller. Welcome to the newly updated version of the Saitek Smart Technology profile editor.
