Configure Pedals

Location: Configure button in Device tab in Options | Control Properties or (Properties) button on window

Use the Configure button to assign the pedals or buttons to use for certain actions like playback, rewind, etc. The Configure button is available when the "Foot pedal or buttons (HID)" option is selected in the Joystick/pedal control list in the tab.

To assign a pedal, choose the action button (such as Play) you want to assign, then hold the pedal you want to use for that action for at least 1 second. The pedal indicators turn red during this time, then turn green when the pedal is assigned. If you do not press a pedal within 5 seconds or you choose the action button again, then no pedal is assigned. More than one pedal can be pressed at a time to assign that combination of presses to an action. If two actions use the same pedal or same combination, then precedence is determined by the order shown (the lower action is considered unassigned).

Choose Toggle to use the pedal as a toggle switch so that the pedal doesn't have to be pressed continuously. This allows you to tap the pedal to start the action and have it continue.

Choose Hold to require that the pedal be pressed continuously to perform the action. When the pedal is released, the action stops.

The Skip actions skip backward or foward 2 seconds with each tap of the pedal.

Note that the Play 3 button setting (see ) is used for playback. Be sure to set Play 3 to "Cursor" for proper operation of the skip backward/forward actions.
