assembled and requires no custom drivers.
Please Note:
The 737TQ is not a “motorized” device.
Trim Control is achieved via your Yoke setup and EICAS display.
Requires calibration and switch assignments in FSUIPC.
*The JetMax product is not designed for commercial use. Any such use would void
any warranties stated or implied.

Important Information regarding the JetMax throttle:
The JetMax Throttle is a plug and play device using a custom
game controller. This controller can be accessed through the
Windows Game Controller. There are calibration instructions
that need to be followed as outlined in this manual. Also some
switch offsets assigned via FSUIPC. A registered version of
Peter Dowson’s FSUIPC is required and available here:
http://www.schiratti.com/dowson.html
FSUIPC Settings are accessed through Flight Simulator. Some
Flight Simulator settings need to be deleted.
*Please refer to the FSUIPC Manual for assignments and
calibration. Some are covered in this manual but a detailed
listing of all FSUIPC assignments and instructions are available
in the FSUIPC Manual located here:
C:\Your Location of FS\Modules\FSUIPC Documents

The JetMax Throttle will work with the following Avionics Suites:
•Aerosytems
•FS9 /FSX / Prepar3d (limited functionality, some switches require an Avionics Suite)
•iFly
•PMDG
•Project Magenta
•ProSim
•Sim-Avionics
•More to follow...
Configuration is dependant on the offsets used by each program.
Some experimentation may be required and involves some trail
and error. Some configurations may require questions in the
above mentioned Forums.
*** This JetMax manual is only a basic guide.***

How to start the calibration and switch assignments
1. Whenever a game controller is plugged into Windows
for the first time in FS9, FSX or Prepar3D the default
settings are applied. You need to remove these
settings from FS via OPTIONS / CONTROLS and select
the Game Controller (in this case JetMax 737
Controller). Go to Joystick Axes and scroll down the
Axis list. Select each Axis and click on “Delete Joystick
Assignment”. Do this for every Axis listed under the
JetMax 737 Controller.
NOTE: if you have other USB devices (Pedals, yoke etc) they will
show in the “Joystick Type” in the drop down menu. Only do
the JetMax 737 Controller. See Figure 5
*Please refer to the FSUIPC Manual for complete instructions
and detailed information related to FSUIPC.

5) Now we are ready to calibrate and assign switch offsets to
your JetMax Throttle.
10
Assigning Potentiometers in FSUIPC
Open FS and select FSUIPC (Modules in FS9 and Add-Ons in FSX)
11
Selecting an Assignment in FSUIPC
1. Move the Axis you want to assign (does not include
switches, only potentiometers).
2. Select “Send Direct to FSUIPC Calibration”.
3. Click the first box
4. From the drop down menu select the axis function you
want to calibrate (ie: Flaps)
12
Select Joystick Calibration and go to the Flaps section (page 6
of 11)
Click on Set and proceed to Set the Flaps Up and Flaps Down
positions in FSUIPC.
13
Low setting
High Setting
*Please refer to Page 46 in the FSUIPC Manual for complete
instructions and detailed information related to FSUIPC.
14
Continue assigning the following Axis’:
•Speedbrake (Spoilers)
•Throttle 1
•Throttle 2
•Flaps
•Steering Tiller (optional item)
15
Selecting Switches in FSUIPC
Pressing a switch, it will show in the box above.
16
After pressing a switch, it will show in the box as
above.
17
Engine Reversers
Engine reversers are switches in the JetMax throttle lever, use
the following offsets:
Offset Word Set
Eng 1
Offset x088C
Parameter -4096
End 2
Offset x0924
Parameter -4096
Use Offset Word Set and the same offsets but use 0 as a
parameter for returning to IDLE.
18
After you click OK and re-open FSUIPC it will show the
following Parameters as a Hexadecimal.
Each Engine can be controlled separately.
19
iFly Switch Information
The use of the JetMax Throttle with iFly requires the use of
iFLytoFSUIPC software created by Jouni Tormanen. This
software interfaces iFly to FSUIPC and has a complete list of
switch offsets to use with iFly.
iFlytoFSUIPC available here:
http://files.100megabyte.com/ifly/user%20files/iFlyToFsuip
c2.03.zip
In the Zip file is the manual for iFlytoFSUIPC and it has all the
offsets listed along with instructions.

1177 KEY_COMMAND_GEAR_PARKING_BRAKE_LEVER_OFF
1178 KEY_COMMAND_GEAR_PARKING_BRAKE_LEVER_ON
Settings in FSUIPC when assigning switches in iFly require the following:
•Select FS Control
•Offset Word Set (from Drop-Down menu)
•Offset x9400 (don’t forget the “x”)
•Parameter (switch offset in iFly ie:233)
To create an ON/OFF action you need to assign the ON then the OFF using
the same Offset Word Set, Offset x9400 and use the correct command in
ON and the off command for OFF.
See the examples on the next 4 pages.
21
As explained on the previous page the following selections are
required to assign the Parking Brake.
1177 KEY_COMMAND_GEAR_PARKING_BRAKE_LEVER_OFF
1178 KEY_COMMAND_GEAR_PARKING_BRAKE_LEVER_ON
22
NOTE:
Don’t panic when you see the Parameters change, FSUIPC
changes them to a hexadecimal code. If you need to change
what you assigned you can use the “Clear” button.
23
As explained on the previous pages the following selections are
required to assign the Parking Brake.

FSUIPC Notes
In this section you can set up two 10 zones (ranges of values) on
the current axis that will each, separately, trigger a control. The
controls are any of the button/switch controls that you can
assign in FSUIPC‘s button section—all are listed in the drop down
according to the same rules as on the Buttons + Switches tab.
Those controls which take a parameter can do so here, and you
can enter an offset too for the FSUIPC offset controls. Everything
is exactly comparable to assigning buttons, except that the
trigger is related to the values arriving from the axis.
31
First you set the range of values in which this action will occur.
The little spin control on the left selects which of the 10 ranges
you are now setting (you can go back and change or adjust them
using that spin control). Then you simply move the lever to the
two extremes of the range, clicking the ―From‖ button at one
end (the lower number) and ―To‖ at the other (the higher
number). If you get these the wrong way round, no matter—
FSUIPC will still understand. The values should be different,
though.
The check boxes ‗Up‘ and ‗Down‖ allow you to select whether
the action is to occur when the axis is moving from low values to
higher ones (―Up‖), or the other way (―Down‖), or both. This
allows you do have different things happen one way than the
other.
Translation:
This will allow you to configure iFly to use the Speedbrake lever
on the JetMax throttle and have the Speedbrakes deploy and
retract fully. Follow the instructions on the next pages to
configure your Speedbrakes.
Using the iFly offset info below:
9428 Set Speedbrake lever position //Pro only. Val:0~208.
0: Speedbrake down; 25: armed; 67: 50% Speedbrake; 161: flight
detent; 208: Speedbrake full up

Six Steps to
setting the
Speedbrake in
iFly
See the following
pages: 34-39
Step 3
Step 4
Step 5
33
Step 1 Speedbrake DOWN
•Move the Speedbrake (SB) lever and watch for the “Data”
• Place Speedbrake lever in DOWN position
• #1 setting, click on Up and Down boxes
•“Offset Byte Set” in the drop-down menu
•Offset x9428 and Parameter 0 (Zero)
•Click on “From” in Down position, move SB lever out of the Down position about
half way to Armed. Click on “To”
34
Step 2 Speedbrake ARMED
•Set to #2, UP box only, Offset Byte Set, Offset x9428 and Parameter 25
•Move SB lever to the “Down” side of the Armed detent. Click on “From”
•Move the SB lever to the opposite side of the Armed detent and Click on “To”
Note:
Don’t panic when you see the Parameters change, FSUIPC changes them to a
hexadecimal code. If you need to change what you assigned you can use the “Clear”
button.
35
Step 3 Speedbrake 50%
•Set #3 Up and Down Box, Offset Byte Set, Offset x9428 and Parameter 67
•Move SB lever to Down side of 50% and click on “From”
•Move SB Lever to opposite side of 50% and click on “To”
36
Step 4 Speedbrake Flight Detent
•Move SB lever to Down side of Flight Detent and click on “From”
•Move SB Lever to opposite side of Flight Detent and click on “To”
37
Step 5 Speedbrake Full UP
•Move SB lever to Down side Full UP and click on “From”
•Move SB Lever to Full UP position and click on “To”
38
Step 6 Speedbrake DOWN Reset
•Set #6 Down Box only, Offset Byte Set, Offset x9428 and Parameter 0
•Move SB lever to Down side of ARMED and click on “To”
•Move SB Lever to Down position and click on “From”
This resets the Speedbrake to the DOWN Position.
Note:
Some of the Data numbers may not match exactly as shown in
the previous pictures , parameters will change in FSUIPC as it
changes to a Hexadecimal number.
