GETTING STARTED
In order for this product to function correctly please install the software from
logitech.com/support/x52
MAINTAINING YOUR CONTROLLER SETTINGS
Your Logitech G X52 HOTAS is supplied ready for use. However, we want you to use it in
the way that suits you best. We’ve therefore included the facility for you to change various
settings on your stick and throttle units.You can, for example, vary the brightness of the LED
buttons, check your stick is working correctly or change the way the date is displayed on
your Multi-Functional Display (MFD).
You change your controller settings in the X52 HOTAS properties window.
The X52 HOTAS properties window consists of ve separate tabs. You can view and change
various controller settings in each tab. The settings you can change are described in the
following sections.

6
Testing your controller
You can make sure that the various features of your controller are working correctly.
You do this in the Test tab of the properties window.
To test your controllers, follow the steps below:
1. Click the Test tab.
The controller features that you can test are displayed below.
2. Test each feature as required.
The way you do this varies, depending on what the feature does. It may, for example,
involve pressing the corresponding button, or turning the corresponding rotary control.

ENGLISH
Maintaining deadzones
You can create deadzones for each range and axis your controller features move in.
Theyreduce interference that may be caused by unintended movements of the ight
stickand other controls. For example, you may want to move your stick in the X axis only,
but nd it dicult to avoid moving it in the Y axis as you do so. You can set up a deadzone
inthe Y axis so that these minor movements are not detected by the drivers.
What is a deadzone?
A deadzone is a part of the range in which an axis moves that is not detected by
thedriversand so has no eect on the game in progress. It may be around the center point
of therange, or at either end.

8
To maintain your deadzones
1. Click the Deadzone tab.
The controls you can create deadzones
forare shown, as follows:
Each axis is represented by a white box
thatcontains a red line that represents
where the control is currently sitting.
Movingthe corresponding control moves
thered line. Use this line to determine exactly
where yourdeadzone must begin and end.
Beneatheach box is a sliding scale. You use
thisto specify the size of each deadzone.
2. Click on a slider on the sliding scale and
drag it to where you want the deadzone
toend. The area that represents
thedeadzone is shaded gray.
3. Use the center sliders to maintain
thedeadzone around the center point of
anaxis. Use the sliders at either end to create deadzones at either end of the axis.
Tips: By default, clicking on either the right or the left slider in the pair moves both sliders.
You can change this if you just want to adjust one side of the deadzone. To do this, right-
click anywhere in the white box and select Link Deadzones from the popup list of options
displayed. Repeat this to link the pairs of sliders again.
You can clear existing deadzones for an axis by right-clicking anywhere in the white box
andselecting Clear Deadzone.

ENGLISH
Maintaining your LED brightness
The authenticity of the ight control
experience provided by your Logitech G X52
HOTAS is enhanced by a number of LEDs on
the throttle unit and ight stick.
You can control the appearance of these
LEDs, making them brighter or dimmer
according to your preference.
To maintain LED brightness
1. Click the LEDs tab.
A sliding scale is displayed, which you
can use to choose how brightly the LEDs
on your stick and throttle are displayed:
2. Move the slider on the scale to adjust
LED brightness. The LEDs change as
you move the slider, so you can make
sure they are as you want them to be.
Youcan either:
• Click and drag the slider along
thescale Or:
• Click a point on the scale itself,
tomove the slider in graduated steps
along the scale.

10
Maintaining MFD settings
Your unit includes an MFD, or Multi-
Functional Display. You can control the way
information is displayed in your MFD by
changing various settings in the MFD tab:
What is the MFD?
The MFD is a screen that displays avariety
of dierent information including,
forexample, the mode currently selected
and today’s date. It is part of the same unit
as your throttle. The MFD itself and the way
it works is explained in more detail in Using
the MFD.

11
ENGLISH
To change the brightness of your MFD
1. Click the MFD tab.
A Brightness sliding scale is displayed at the top of the tab.
2. Change the brightness of your MFD by moving the slider along the scale To move
theslider, you can either:
• Click and drag the slider along the scale. Or:
• Click a point on the scale itself, to move the slider in graduated steps along the scale.
The brightness of your MFD changes as you move the slider. Use this to determine when
theslider is in the right place.
Maintaining clock settings
Your MFD can display the current time in any time zone. You can choose the time zones
displayed and the format in which the time for each zone is displayed.
You can have up to three dierent time zones available on your MFD. Greenwich Mean Time
(GMT) is included by default. You can choose up to two additional time zones. When using
your MFD, you switch between the three time zones, as required.
To change your clock settings
1. Click the MFD tab.
This tab includes three panels in which you change the way time is displayed on
yourMFD. They are called Clock 1, Clock 2 and Clock 3.
Note: Clock 1 is set to GMT by default. You cannot change this.
2. Choose additional time zones that you want to be able to view on your MFD in the Clock
2 and Clock 3 panels. You do this by selecting an option from the corresponding Time
Adjustment drop-down list.
Each option is a time relative to GMT, for example GMT +1:00 is GMT plus one hour,
andso on. Each time is also represented by an entry in the phonetic alphabet.
Forexample, GMT is represented by ’Zulu’ and GMT +12:00 by ’Mike’.
3. Choose the format you want each time to be displayed in. To do this, either check
oruncheck the corresponding 12 Hour Format checkbox.
When the box is unchecked, the time is displayed in 24 hour clock format, i.e. between
00:00 and 23:59. If it is checked, the time is shown in 12 hour clock format.
4. Click Apply.
You can now view the current times in your chosen time zones on your MFD. See Using
the MFD for details.

12
Maintaining date settings
The current date is displayed in the bottom right-hand corner of your MFD. You can choose
how this date is displayed.
You may, for example, prefer to see the month rst, followed by day and year.
Changing the way your clutch button works
The clutch button on your throttle is used to temporarily deactivate the buttons inthegame
in progress. This enables you to check what each button does without interrupting
thegame, and to select a dierent prole if required. See Viewing button names in Using
theMFD for more information.
To change the way your clutch works, check or uncheck the Latched Clutch Button checkbox
in the Clutch Settings panel and then click Apply.
When the box is checked, pressing and releasing the clutch deactivates the buttons
inthegame in progress. To reactivate the buttons, you must press and release
theclutchagain.
When the box is unchecked, the buttons are deactivated in the game only as long
astheclutch is depressed. When you release the clutch, pressing buttons once again
aectsthe game in progress.

ENGLISH
Using the MFD
The MFD, or Multi-Functional Display, is an integral part of your throttle unit. It displays
avariety of information including button names, the current prole and today’s date.
Italsoprovides a stopwatch feature.
Features of the MFD
The MFD is divided into three sections:
• The mode section is at the top of the MFD and shows the currently selected mode.
SeeWorking with modes, below.
• The center section of the MFD is used to view the names of buttons on your ight
stick and throttle, and to view and change the current prole. See Working with prole
information, below.
• The time and date display is at the bottom of the MFD. It can show the current time in up
to three time zones. It also includes the stopwatch. See Viewing the time and date and
Using the stopwatch, below.
The layout of the MFD is shown right:
The three buttons beneath the MFD are used
to change the time display and to operate
thestopwatch.
Working with modes
The Logitech G X52 HOTAS oers extensive
opportunities for you to congure your controller
to work the way you want it to. You do this
by creating proles, using the programming
software. (See the programming software
manual online atlogitech.com/support/x52
fordetails.) Withineach prole, you can create up
to sixdierent modes that determine the actions
performed when you press buttons on the ight
stick and throttle.
You can use your MFD to view the mode that
iscurrently selected.

14
Changing the mode
You change the mode by rotating the mode selector switch on your ight stick.
Asyoudothis, the MODE number displayed on the MFD changes to reect your selection.
Using additional modes
Three modes are available by default. You can increase this to six using the pinkie switch
on your ight stick. To do this you must designate the pinkie switch to perform the same
function as the Shift key, using the SST programming software. You can then select one of
the additional modes by holding down the pinkie switch as you rotate the mode selector
switch. When you do this, the word SHIFT is displayed in the mode section of your MFD.
Within each prole, you can use the following modes:
• Mode 1
• Mode 2
• Mode 3
• Mode 1 + Pinkie
• Mode 2 + Pinkie
• Mode 3 + Pinkie
Viewing the current modeThe mode that is currently selected is displayed in the top part
ofthe MFD. This is shown in the following example:

15
ENGLISH
If you have selected one of the three pinkie modes described above, the word SHIFT
isdisplayed, because the pinkie switch is acting as a Shift key.
Working with prole information
You can use the center section of the MFD
to view the names assigned to buttons on
your ight stick and throttle. It also shows
the names of the prole and mode currently
selected.
Viewing button names
You can view the names assigned to buttons in the current mode. You may use the SST
programming software to create a number of proles. Each prole may include up to six
dierent modes, assigning dierent functions to individual buttons for use in dierent games.
If you’ve created proles, you can view the names you’ve given to buttons in the selected
mode in the current prole. If not, the standard name assigned to each button is displayed.
Thestandard name reects the function assigned to each button when your HOTAS is supplied.
To view the name of a button, press it as you normally would. Its name is displayed in
thecentreline of the MFD.
If a game is in progress, use the clutch to deactivate the buttons in the game. You can then
press them and view their names without aecting the game. When supplied, the clutch
is set up so that you must keep it depressed for as long as you want the buttons to remain
inactive in the current game. You can change the way the clutch button works via the MFD
tab of the Logitech G X52 HOTAS properties window. See Changing the way your clutch
button works in Maintaining your controller settings for details.
Note: You cannot view button names if the Logitech G X52 HOTAS properties window is open.
Changing the current prole
You can use the MFD to change the current prole ’on the y’. You may, for example,
realisethat you’re not working in the correct prole for the game in progress.

16
To change the prole on the y
1. Press the clutch button. The LEDs on your clutch and on the main POV control on
youright stick begin to ash on and o. Pressing buttons does not aect the game
inprogress when the clutch is engaged.
2. Move the main POV control on your ight stick up (north) or down (south) to scroll
through your proles. As you do this, the prole names are displayed in the bottom row
of the centre section of the MFD.
Note: You can use the MFD to access any folder on your computer. To open a folder, push
the POV to the right (east). To move up a level, scroll through the les and folders in the
current folder until [...] isdisplayed, and then push the POV to the right (east).
3. Select the prole you want by moving the main POV control right (east) when the
prole’s name is displayed on the MFD. It becomes the current prole and its settings are
applied when you resume the game in progress.
Tip: You can clear the current prole by moving the POV left (west). The buttons on
yourstick and throttle return to their default settings.
4. Release the clutch. The way you do this depends on your clutch settings. Either stop
pressing the clutch button or press and release it.
Viewing the time and date
The lower part of the MFD displays the current time and date:
This part of the MFD can also be used as
a stopwatch. You toggle between the two
features by pressing the Function button.
See Using the stopwatch, below, for more
information about this feature.

17
ENGLISH
Viewing the time
You can choose the time zone for which the current time is displayed from up to three
available time zones. To move between the available time zones, press the up (Start/Stop)
and down (Reset) buttons.
As you move between the three time zones, a number is displayed in the bottom right
corner of the MFD (in place of the date). This number disappears after a few seconds.
Greenwich Mean Time (GMT) is available by default, and is represented by the number 1.
You can choose which other time zones are available and the format in which each time is
displayed. See Maintaining clock settings in the section Maintaining your controller settings
for an explanation of this procedure.
Viewing the date
The date is displayed in the bottom right-hand corner of the MFD. By default, it is shown
in the format MMDDYY. You can change the date format, for example to DDMMYY.
See Maintaining date settings in the section Maintaining your controller settings for
anexplanation of this procedure.
Using the stopwatch
The lower part of the MFD can also be
used as a stopwatch. You toggle between
thestopwatch and time displays by pressing
the Function button. When the stopwatch
isselected, the following is displayed:
To use the stopwatch
1. Press Start/Stop once. The number of seconds begins to increase.
2. Press Start/Stop again to stop the timer.
3. Press Reset to clear the time and return to 00:00.
Note: The timer initially shows minutes and seconds. If the time recorded reaches
fty-nineminutes and fty-nine seconds, i.e. 59:59, it changes to show hours and minutes.
This means the next reading after 59:59 is 01:00.

18
Using the rudder lock
You can deactivate the rudder feature on your ight stick by engaging the rudder lock.
Whenyou do this, the ight stick no longer rotates.
To use the rudder lock
1. Position your ight stick unit with the three toggle switches (T1 to T6) facing you.
Therudder lock can be seen at the base of the ight stick, on the left hand side.
Ifyoulook closer, you will see that it is labelled RLOCK.
2. Pull out the RLOCK switch. You may nd the easiest way to do this is by using the thumb
on your left hand. The twist action on the ight stick is now locked and you can no longer
rotate it. You can restore the rudder feature at any time by pushing the RLOCK switch
back in.
Adjusting the handle
You can optimise your comfort when using the ight stick by adjusting the height of the
hand rest and pinkie switch. If your hands are small, you can place the hand rest and pinkie
switch in the highest position available. This reduces the distance between the trigger switch
and pinkie switch, avoiding the need for you to stretch to reach both. If you have larger
hands, you can maximise this distance and operate the ight stick in greater comfort.
To adjust the handle
1. Position your ight stick unit with the three toggle switches (T1 to T6) facing away from you.
A metal screw is clearly visible about one third of the way up the back of the handle.
2. Loosen the screw by turning it anti-clockwise.
When the screw is loose enough, you can move it freely up and down within its slot on
theback of the handle.
Moving the screw also moves the hand rest and pinkie switch.
3. Move the screw until the hand rest and pinkie switch are at the height you want.
4. Place the screw in the position that best suits your preferred height. There are ve positions
for you to choose from.
5. Tighten the screw in position by turning it clockwise.
