paddle programming

Does anybody know how to program the paddles on the bottom to function as the "a" or "b" button? I'm wanting to program the right paddle to be function like I'm pressing the "b" button and the left paddle to function like I'm pressing the "a" button. But I also don't want to lose the regular functionality of the actual "b" and "a" buttons if you press them. I spent a couple hours on the Viking Forge trying to figure it out and didn't see anything on the forums about it or instruction manual. Any help is much appreciated. Thanks.

Go in to make new rune and pick A! Draw a line from 0 to 0.5 ... Name it at the top... Jump I guess! Save it! Back out and go into rune packs.... Put your rune there in your group and set to use number 2 or 4 tac switch which them are your paddles! This does not mess with normal use of buttons!

Will the 0 to 0.5 work for drop shot or will it just crouch?

Sorry I'm slow to catch on to this new software. I'm used to the macro controller one. How do I assign it to those tac switches? As the rune playback next to the rune selection in the group?

Assign Rune then click on playback then assign #2 or #4 for the paddles! Then to have on all the time so you don't have to put any activate/deactivate sequence....right above group change sequence there is a star that makes it on all the time...click that and make it solid!

Just updated the video link it was uploaded to the wrong channel: http://youtu.be/LPEqDjigK28

Please let us know when you post up the tutorial on getting rapid fire to work when you just pull the right trigger. Thanks. The videos are a huge help. This controller also has been a huge help since my head on collision last week since I don't have full range of motion in my wrists. Having some of the things like automatic dropshot when you fire makes it less painful when I don't have to try to hold the b button at the same time.

Still dealing with Dr appointments to figure everything out. It sucks. I'm sure I will have multiple surgeries.
