Saitek P2000 User Manual - page 4
In the Tilt Set Mode, the Tilt LED
flashes constantly. To let you know
when changes to the Tilt Settings
are actually being made, the Tilt LED flashes at twice the rate.
To help with Tilt Set Mode, the Analog LED will light continually to indicate when the
maximum/minimum value is reached on the X or Y axis.

To exit the Tilt Set Mode, either press the Shift Button to exit and save the new settings, or
press the
Start Button
to exit and restore the factory settings. If you press the Tilt Button or
press no button for 60 seconds you will exit the Tilt Set Mode without saving any changes you
have made.
The Center/Zero Tilt option allows the user to set the default center of the Tilt to something
other than the horizontal. This is particularly useful if you have a personal playing style that
means you hold the gamepad at an angle other than that of horizontal. However, please note the
range is set to 70 degrees either way on the X axis and 60 degrees either way on the Y axis -
with a 20 degree 'dead zone' to stop any false movement in the game. With this in mind the
Zero/Center should not be set to any extreme of deflection. If you have an individual style, it is
worth experimenting with this to find your optimum playing position.
Note: Remember, in the event that you are unhappy with your new settings, you can restore the
factory default settings by pressing the Start Button when in Tilt Set Mode.

Lockable Axis on the Analog Stick
To improve your gaming, Saitek have added a unique feature
to the P2000 – a lockable axis for the Analog Stick. This is
ideal for those situations when the axes need to be separately
controlled, eg, for steering or for accelerator/brake
function. Simply press down the button to the side of the stick and
rotate the dial to the direction lock you require - either “Up/Down” or
“Right/Left” depending on the type of game you are playing. This will especially improve your
control in driving games.
Throttle Wheel
The Saitek P2000 comes with a Throttle Wheel for improved play - especially in driving and
flying games. It is situated in the optimum position for precision fingertip control. The power-
up default setting for the Throttle Wheel is
ON
.
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 simultaneously pressing the Shift Button with another control, you can assign another
command to that control. This is a simple and effective way of increasing the functionality of
your game controller.
