3. Installation
Note: To use your joystick, DirectX 5.0 (or better) must be
installed before installing the joystick.
3.1 Windows 95 / 98
The examples assume that your computer system has assigned the
drive letter ‘D:’ to your CD-ROM drive. If your computer uses a
different letter, e.g. ‘E:’, substitute ‘E’ for ‘D’.
Note: Do not touch the joystick during installation or while the
system starts up. The joystick automatically calibrates
itself. There is no need for calibration in Windows.
1. Start Windows 95 / 98.
2. Click on the ‘Start’ button on the task bar and select ‘Run’.
3. In the entry field, type [D:\SETUP]. Press <Enter> to start the
installation.
4. Follow the on-screen instructions. If the joystick has been correctly
installed, a screen as in Figure 1 will be displayed. If this screen is
not displayed, please make sure the joystick has been correctly
connected.

5. Click on ‘OK’ to continue with the installation.
6. After installation, select the profile ‘Activator’ option by marking
the selector box (see Figure 2).

joystick can operate in two different modes, set by switch L (see
Figure 3). The various functions are listed in the table below.

joystick to provide straight flying or driving with the joystick in the
centre position. Please refer to the game manual on how to proceed
for calibration.

4. Operation
Figure 3: Predator Digital 3D
The joystick features the following buttons. Some games cannot use
every available function. Please refer to the game manual for a list of
buttons that can be used. If you are running Windows 95 or 98,
keyboard keys can be assigned to the firing buttons (see Chapter 5).
Button Function
A - H Firing buttons 1 - 8
I Selector button Acts like the ‘Shift’ key on the keyboard. A
second function can be assigned to a firing
button. You can assign a function to, e.g.,
button 1, plus another function to selector
button + button 1.
J Throttle Adjustable game function, e.g.
accelerator/throttle.
K Head switch Use the head switch to select the viewing
direction in games.
L Mode switch Switch between CH Flightstick Pro and
Thrustmaster Joystick.
3D (Rudder) Rotate the stick for extra manoeuvrability
in games, e.g. for rudder deflection.

5. Programming Buttons
Note: This function is intended for older games that allow the
use of a maximum of 4 firing buttons. In games that
recognize all the firing buttons directly, it is better to
assign the functions directly to the buttons from within the
games, rather than use this program.
During the joystick installation procedure, a program has been
installed to program the firing buttons individually. This will enable you
to assign keyboard key functions to firing buttons. Proceed as follows:
1. After installation, the Predator Digital 3D profile screen will be
automatically activated. On the task bar, double-click on the icon
shown in Figure 4. A screen as shown in Figure 5 will be
displayed.

2. On the menu bar, click on ‘Utility’ and select ‘Editor’. A screen as
shown in Figure 6 will be displayed.
3. Click on the empty field of the firing button you wish to assign.
4. Enter a description for the firing button.

5. Click on ‘Record’ (see Figure 6). You can now start to record
keystrokes.

6. Press the key you wish to assign. The key name will be displayed
in the status bar. You can assign multiple keystrokes to each
button.
7. Click on ‘Stop’ to stop recording keystrokes for the selected firing
button. The button has now been programmed. Use the ‘Clear’
option to erase any incorrect keystrokes you may have entered.
8. Repeat steps 3 to 7 for each of the firing buttons to be
programmed.
9. Click on ‘File’ on the menu bar and select ‘Save As’.
10. Enter a name for the profile and press <Enter>.
11. Close the profile editing screen. This will return you to the main
profile screen (Figure 5).
12. On the menu bar, click on ‘File’ and select ‘Add Profile’.
13. Select the profile you saved under step 9, and press <Enter>.
14. Activate the profile by clicking on the ‘No’ option in front of the
selected profile. The ‘No’ option will change to ‘Yes’.
