Target question
-
I only want to adjust the speed of the radar/tgp cursor by using the TARGET software. My question is if I use TARGET do I have to bind all my throttle controls in TARGET or can I just program the cursor speed and use the BMS UI for the rest of the controller binds.

There is also a cursor slew speed parameter option in the Config utility (or the text file it’s editing) Avionics>Cursor Speed.
TARGET determines what is the output from the logical device. A completely “blank” Target script (or GUI profile) does exhibit fall through behavior such that buttons still produce output in a default way even though no explicit binding has been made. Considering that both Warthog devices is more than the logical limit of 32 buttons and 8 axes not every input will get an output (joystick’s 19 buttons get priority, the remaining throttle LTB #20 then one through speedbrake get 21-32). By excluding the joystick from the TARGET profile the full functionality should be mapped.
If you’ve already set up BMS to use the Warthog devices without TARGET then running TARGET will be like plugging in a totally different device. There’s no reason why you can’t use the UI to setup a TARGET joystick just like a non-programmable one.
