    The manuals are still a WIP, you will need to be patient for a while.

    @hyper1966,
    The only real difference in setup, is in the axis assignment section you use <Axis1a> now instead of <Axis1>.
    If you have used 1.3, 2.0 will be very familiar.

    Yes, you will be back up and running in no time.
    And with a more responsive simulator!
