P3000 WIRELESS PAD
GETTING STARTED
The first time you use your P3000 wireless pad
In order for the P3000 Pad to work you need to fully charge the batteries before you play. To
obtain a full charge, place one of the battery cells into the front of the docking station (after you
have completed the installation and with the USB cable connected and your PC switched on)
and wait for approximately one hour, or until the red Charge light switches off, indicating that
the battery is now fully charged.
To recharge the battery after gameplay, simply repeat the procedure. The battery will usually
deliver a minimum of 8 hours gameplay after a full charge. The green Ready light on the
docking station indicates that the Docking Station is ready to communicate with the pad.
Note : Remember you can play continuously without having to wait to recharge the batteries.
Just charge one of the battery cells in the docking station while you play with the other.
P3000 Wireless Pad features
Switching Between Digital and Analog Modes
The Saitek P3000 comes with a choice of Analog and Digital Modes for increased precision,
performance and playing power. Switch between Digital and Analog Modes by pressing the
Digital/Analog Buttons and the LCD screen will tell you which mode you are playing in. Select
the Analog Mode for complete control in driving and flying games or any game where accuracy
in movement is crucial.
Shift Button
Some controls can be programmed to perform an extra function by use of the Shift Button.
This works in the same way as when you press the Shift Key in conjunction with another key
on your computer keyboard - to assign a new and added function to the key. By pressing the
Shift Button with another control, you can assign another command to that control in the Smart
Technology Programming software. This is a simple and effective way of increasing the
functionality of your game controller. When the Shift Key is activated it will glow red in colour.

used supports game controllers, please refer to the user manual for that game for more help.
TROUBLESHOOTING
Q My computer is not recognizing the P3000 Wireless Pad – what’s wrong?
A Check the cable connections. Turn off the computer and then unplug your controller. Plug it
back in making certain that it is securely attached.
Q Can I have another game controller connected to my PC at the same time?
A To avoid potential problems and conflicts, we recommend that you remove any existing
game controllers before installing the P3000 Wireless Pad. Do this by selecting the previously
installed controller in the Game Controllers window and clicking on Remove .
Q I have plugged in my P3000 Wireless Pad using the USB connector and it has not been
recognized by the computer.
A Your USB connection may not be enabled within the computer. You can switch it on via your
computer’s BIOS settings (please check the documentation that came with your computer). If
you are still unsure as to what to do, contact Technical Support.
Q Some of the movements make on my wireless pad are not being picked up in the game I’m
playing.
A There is interference on the wireless channel your pad is using to communicate with the
receiver. Press the scan button on the top of the pad once to switch to an interference-free
channel.
How to Test your Controller
You can do this at any time by Clicking on Start, then Settings and selecting Control
Panel in Windows (XP users may only need to click on Start and then Control Panel)
Look for an icon called either Game Controllers or Gaming Options (XP users may have

Open the Game Controllers/Gaming Options window then the name of your controller
should show up.

What is a Profile
A Profile is a custom setup for improved gameplay – consisting of a set of commands that are
pre-assigned to the buttons or axes of your controller. There are over two hundred pre-written
Profiles available on the Product Companion Disk that accompanies this device or on the
Saitek Website – www.saitek.com. (Please check the website for new or improved Profiles,
which are being added regularly).
How Do I Program My Controller?
After getting to know your controller, you can start creating your own personal Profiles with the
Saitek Smart Technology programming software (SST). This software has virtually unlimited
programming capabilities and allows you to customize the controller to your exact gaming
needs.
The Profile Editor allows you to program the buttons on your controller to perform different
actions within your games – this is especially useful if the game you are using does not have
its own screen that allows reconfiguring of your buttons.
Getting Started
1. Double-click on the Saitek Smart Technology icon the install left on your desktop.
2. In the Profile Editor, choose the control to which you wish to assign a keyboard
command. You do this by left-clicking on the control’s cell in the control list on the right of
the screen.
3. With the cursor flashing, type in the key commands and then click on the green tick mark
when complete.
4. Repeat this procedure for all the buttons you would like to program and then click File,
Save at the top of the Profile Editor window.
5. Give the profile a name (it is recommended you name it after the game for which the
profile is intended) and then click Save.
6. To enable the profile either click the Profile Now icon at the top of the Profile Editor (it
looks like a black and yellow crosshair) or right-click on the controller icon in your taskbar
and select the name of the profile from the pop-up list of options.
7. You will notice that when a profile is loaded that the controller icon in your taskbar has a
green square behind it, indicating that a profile is currently loaded. If you wish to unload a
profile simply right-click on the controller icon and click Clear Profile from the pop-up list
of options.
If you require more detailed assistance with using the SST Programming Software, click
on Help at the top of the Profile Editor and then Manual.
