I got a TM WH HOTAS and a set of TM Cougar MFDs. I was able to control the LED of the MFDs and throttle via the Target GUI. However, when I turn the PC off, then on again, the MFDs stay off but the throttle lights come back on again. Turn it off on the GUI, PC off, once I start up the PC again, it lights up again! Anyone else have/had this problem? Any solutions?

ICE,
I ave just had the exact same problem to try and cure stutter on the slider axis of the throttle...
The Throttle has to plug in to the PC directly, not through any hubs etc... it has a similar issue when upgrading firmware, it has to be plugged directly into the PC to work... did this last night, and the LED lights work as setup in Target after a restart...

Right... will it "keep" that settings once you re-plug it on the USB hub, I wonder?

Will try that out later, thanks! Funny as all my gear is plugged through the powered USB hub and the MFDs behave themselves but the throttle doesn't.

Yup, exactly same here.. LED's on MFD's work but the throttle won't... it won't remember the setting once taken off PC and plugged into HUB... tried that already !

There is no solution. The throttle was not designed to remember LED settings on a reset.

I'm more surprised that they designed that functionality into the MFDs than that they didn't put it in the WH throttle. Heh.
