F-22 Installation

INSTALLING YOUR F-22 FLIGHT STICK
1)   Turn your computer "Off".

2)   Locate the keyboard port on your computer and unplug the keyboard. 
     Plug the F-22's keyboard connector into the computer's keyboard 
     port. 

     Note: If your keyboard uses the larger 5-pin connectors for the 
     keyboard, a pair of adapters will be needed for converting 
     PS/2-style to 5-pin connectors.

3)   Plug the keyboard connector into the back of the F-22.

4)   Locate the 15 pin game port connector on your computer.  If you have 
     more than one game port connector on your system you should disable 
     all ports except for the one you intend to use.  See your hardware 
     manuals for information on how to do this.

     Warning: If you have a network card installed in your computer, check 
     if the network connector also is a 15-pin connector. DO NOT install 
     your F-22 on to a network card. Damage to computer components and/or 
     the F-22 may occur.

5)   If you have the F-22 flight stick and no additional flight equipment:

         a. Plug the F-22's 15-pin connector into the gameport connector 
            on your computer's gamecard.

     If you have the F-22 flight stick and rudder pedals but no WCS Mark 
     II throttle or TQS throttle:

         a.  Plug the F-22's 15-pin connector into the y-connector on your 
             rudder pedals.  Plug the gamecard connector on your rudder 
             pedals into the gameport connector on your computer.

     If you have the F-22 flight stick and either a WCS Mark II or TQS 
     throttle, but no rudder pedals:

         a.  Plug the F-22's 15-pin connector into the gameport connector 
             on your WCS Mark II or TQS throttle.

         b.  Plug the gamecard connector on your WCS or TQS to the 
             gameport connector on your computer's gamecard.

     If you have the F-22 flight stick and either a WCS Mark II or TQS 
     throttle, and rudder pedals:

         a.  Plug the F-22's 15-pin connector into the y-connector on 
             your rudder pedals.  Plug the game card connector on your 
             rudder pedals into the gameport connector on your WCS MK II 
             or TQS.

         b.  Plug the gamecard connector on your WCS or TQS to the 
             gameport connector on your computer's gamecard.

6)   If you have a TQS and a mouse:

     a. Connect the mouse directly to your TQS throttle controller and then 
        connect the mouse extension cable from your TQS to the serial port 
        connector on your computer.

7)   Turn your computer "On".

8)   Change to the F-22 program directory (normally C:\TM\F22), type "F22" 
     and then press ENTER (to run F22.BAT).
