CH Products USB Throttle Quadrant Update

The calibration file, "Plugins.txt" shown below is intended for users of CH Products USB Throttle Quadrant when used in conjunction with CH's Flight Sim yoke, with or without CH's USB Pro Pedals.
NOTE: This calibration file is NOT intended for users of other yokes or joysticks when used with CH's Throttle Quadrant. Contact us if you wish to use the TQ with flight controllers other than CH Products Flight Sim yoke.

To use the file:

• Save the file to a known location on your computer (for Internet Explorer, right-click on the link, and select Save Target As...; do NOT rename the file, or it won't work)
• Copy/paste the file to On Top's program directory. By default, this location is "C:\Program Files\ASA\On Top 9\program"
You will be prompted to replace the existing "plugins.txt" file. Do this
• Delete the existing "Plugins.dat" file. This will remove previous calibration settings.
• Close all windows and re-start On Top. You will be taken to the calibration page to re-calibrate your yoke and calibrate the TQ.

Saitek Pro Flight Yoke System (with rudder pedals and throttle quadrant) Update

Our programs utilize a calibration file called plugins.txt for some brands of flight controls. The Saitek brand of controls are in this category. Some of the older Saitek controls are covered in On Top v.9.1 but the Pro Flight Yoke, TQ and Pedals are a new release by Saitek and not covered by the default calibration file in the version of On Top you have.

Below you will find the specialized plugins.txt file that allows these controls to work with On Top. To make this work you will have to replace the existing file with this new one.

• Save the attachment to the following default installation location: C:\Program Files\ASA\On Top 9.1\program.
• If you installed On Top to a different location from the default, the idea is to save the file to that location.
When you save this file Windows will give a message that the file already exists and ask you if you want to replace it. Replace the existing plugins.txt file.
• Go to the actual folder you just saved this file to. If you have a preferred method of browsing your hard drive, use it. Otherwise, right click on the main Windows Start button and select Explore. In the split window that opens, on the left-side (folder tree side) find the Program Files folder. Click the (+) to the left of Program Files to expand it, and then continue to expand subsequent folders as follows: ASA folder, On Top 9.1 folder, ASDB folder, FlightPrep folder, and Garmin folder.
• Click on the "PROGRAM" folder to display its contents on the right-side window. On the right side find the file called plugins.dat.
• Right-click on plugins.dat and select Delete. Be sure NOT to delete the plugins.txt file that you just saved to this folder from the email attachment.
