What is the purpose of the mode switch? Is it simply to assign functions to/for different games?

I do not use it yet, however you can use it to assign key board or yoke buttons to one mode and a differant set to another mode. For instance if you fly a jet you would assign buttons to fit the key items you want to use, that would be one mode. Then if you fly a cessna 208 you would not need all the ones you use on a jet so you could assign another set. ie mode 2 and so on. I hope that helps. As I said I have not tried the mode switch yet so don't know how much I would use it.

First, there is a sofware for configuring the different buttons. And for each profile, you can use the switch to increase the number of buttons. But this switch is not done for switching profiles.

In general, yes. However you'll need to use Saitek's SST software or Dowson's FSUIPC4 in order to assign different axis/button commands for each mode switch position.

I use it for switching view modes in FSX (virtual cockpit / 2-d panel / outside)

I have never used it for games, but there is an option to select a game mode instead of the theater mode. Hope this helped a little bit.

I used it to switch between inputs. Only one input at at time sending the same output to two screens.

yes, you only need to set the switch to the X mode, this works like a Xbox 360 Controller settings automatically.

Unfortunately no you can't choose between the funtions. when you turn it on/off it always apply to both functions simultaneously .

Both, there is a switch that allows you to choose. It also has a macro function which I am just starting to play with.

The function of the switch is referenced in the manual. It turns ON and OFF the HOLD feature.

The same switch-button that is used to select the speed is also the eject button when it is pushed. This could be an issue for some people since one might push down on the button in the process of selecting a speed. I haven't had any problem with it, however...

If you are having trouble with the configuration try switching it with the switch on the side. Most games I believe are 'xinput' by default, but switching to 'dinput' may help.

I'm not sure what exactly you're talking about. What function does this switch perform?

The Mode button basically controls the repeat, random, and introduction features. One click repeats the current track, the second click repeats all tracks, the third click plays the tracks in random order, the fourth click is intro, which plays the first ten seconds of each track in sequential order. A tiny icon appears for each function on the LCD screen. you have to look closely, it's very small. These modes work on USB and memory card inputs as well.

Hey Tom, if you haven't seen it yet, here is a you tube video that shows you how to switch modes. Hope it helps. Bubba Earl. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vQsRdH8IP_0

I'm not sure but I assume you can program In a game, not by installing some special program for it. I haven't tried yet.

I believe so. There are different setting using some DIP Switch for different modes.

YES; Good question had to test it out, It does remember the last mode if you press the button fast some times it will change the mode if you press it slow, I think because of the sensitivity of the button, its easy to get back to the right mode if it had change and easy to learn. hope this helps.

I could never be sure on that one-hundred percent, as I haven't gotten around to playing many games on it yet, but I would assume that there would be a very small number of games that would be affected this way. Most of the confusion can really come from you using the buttons to use the PS Vita's pre-installed apps, as well as others you can download onto your system, such as Youtube, which, unfortunately, is going to lose support after sometime next month.But again, to answer you, very few games would have those buttons' functionality changed.

I know for the web it's used to go forward and backward a webpage and for video games like Unreal Tournament or Call of duty it might be able to switch from different weapons. I haven't really gotten to play any games with mine cause it stopped working within 3 days, so I'm not entirely sure it if the buttons can switch between weapons but that is what I would assume it would do.
