PMDG 737 Voice Commander

Featured Replies

Hello Bryan,first of all thank you very much for this great product!!! I bought it also for the PIC 737 an I love both versions very much. While the PIC737 version is working very fine I have a problem with the PMDG version. Most of the time the FO ignore the "Gear Up" command. The "Gear Down" command on the other side is working fine. I have changed a few FS Key-Commands associated with some view options, can this cause my problem?And one feature question. With the PIC version I can do HDG commands (so that the FO set the correct HDG vector according to the actual track) even when I´m flying in LNAV. Is there a way that it also work for the PMDG 737?Last but not least, IFLY is devoloping a very deep simulated 737NG: http://www.iflysimsoft.com/Any chance that we will the the voice commander for this too? Probably not so much work because as you would do it for a different aircraft from the 737!?Thanks,Holger

I have to add one issue. The command "cleared" when entering the runway doesn`t works for both versions (PIC737 & PMDG737) :( Nothing happens! Any idea?I have also noticed that the call "clear" during the Before Taxi Checklist is very bad to understand for the response interface. Sometimes I have to say it 5 to 7 times until it is recognized. Probably my german accent but i tried it in different styles ;-)Kindly regards,Holger

Hi Holger,Gear up/gear down: What does the Green Bar say? If the Green Bar says "Gear up" / "Gear Down", and the gear is not going up or down it's means you're not in the right "FS2Crew Mode". Remember a lot of the commands are mode sensitive. Why? To help ensure aren't accidentally triggered at an inopportune time (like cruise).HDG with LNAV engaged: Not possible. Getting the FS2Crew FO to interface without a dedicated SDK with the PMDG 737 was a challenge. It's the best I could do.IFly: Won't happen. PMDG 737NGX will.Cheers,

Again, what's the Green Bar say?If you see "Cleared" in the Green bar and nothing happens, you're in the wrong mode.Be sure to watch the demo/training videos... note the displayed mode in the FS2Crew panel.http://www.youtube.com/user/FS2CrewThere's the PMDG 737 video and two training videos in the lower left corner.Best,

Hi Bryan,thanks for reply!I just checked it with the green bar. I found out that the commands "Gear up" and especially "clear" & "cleared" are very difficult to understand for the programm. Mostly the green bar writes "year" but also other words... All other commands are working fine without any problems.I think I have understand the programm, have very carefully read the manual and already have seen the videos. Think it has something to do with my voice recognition. I tested my headset, it is surely not the best of the world but I´m think it is ok. Everything is understandable and as I said all other commands are working very fine.Thanks,Holger

Hi Holger,It shouldn't hear 'year' because year is not in the grammar.Just try running the Voice Training again and try adjusting your Mic settings.If using XP, be sure to check your Mic volume *after* you've loaded the FS2Crew Main panel. For some reason with XP only (not Vista or Win 7), the volume input level on the microphone can reset to full max after the speech engine is loaded.Also, you can practice saying "gear up" "gear down"... just load the 737, open the FS2Crew panel, and without doing anything else just say the commands in different ways until you see it recognized in the Green Bar. You don't need to make a full flight to practice. Try adjusting your accent.Cheers,

Sorry Bryan,it is "yeah" and "not year" and sometimes "see ya". "Gear up" now works good, "cleared" most of the time but "clear" seems impossible for me ;)Thanks,Holger
