If you are pressing the F9 key, you could also be pausing the TrackIR software.
Can't you just go to the menu -> View -> VC?

Re: The software won't install
No, the program was frozen.
I've reinstalled FSX and the TIR software from your website. I reassigned the center and pause hotkeys to numpad * and - and made them trapped. Now I can pause the tracker in FSX but it does not "unpause." Instead the view jumps suddenly to where I am looking each time I press the pause key and freezes again.
Interesting stuff. I will get this worked out because I really want it to. I apologise for my clumsiness with your great product.

Re: The software won't install
Is the item pause everytime you hit the key, and works again when not pausing?
Is it working fine, when you are not pressing the keys?

Re: The software won't install
No, I wish it were true.
THe tracker works just great when starting out in the simulator itself. Looking around, etc. is good at the beginning. The problem is pausing the tracker (not the sim). After the first time I pause the tracker, I can't go back to the flowing tracker view. It's frozen. From then on, every time I press the pause key, the view onscreen jumps to where I was looking at that time and stops still.

Re: The software won't install
and if you press the key, and hold it?
Is the toogle option checked, or unchecked?

Re: The software won't install
Bingo!
Now I get it. I misunderstood the application of "toggle." It works great!
Thank you for your generous and speedy help Vincent. BTW, concerning another simmer's query about the value of purchasing a TrackIR on another sim forum, I just wrote this, so I am a happy camper.

Re: The software won't install
FYI - from the manual, section 5.5.6.4
Toggle checkboxes
The Toggle feature changes the way the Hotkey works such that pressing the key once turns the associated hotkey feature on, and pressing the Hotkey again turns the feature back off. For example, turning Toggle on for the Precision hotkey would allow the user to turn Precision mode on with the first keypress, and turn Precision mode off with the next keypress, instead of only having Precision mode on while they key was held down.
