X52 Pro MFD library

This is a library which communicates using libusb-1.0 with the Saitek X52 Pro HOTAS. The library provides several functions to control the LEDs and MFD of the above HOTAS.

Supported functions

• Set the LED state of all LEDs
• Write text to each of the MFD lines
• Set the date/time on the MFD
• Make the clutch and hat LEDs blink
• Display the "SHIFT" indicator in the MFD

Note that when writing text to the MFD, the line length is limited to 16 characters. While you can pass a longer string, the library will only consider the first 16 characters for writing to the display.
