Passing 18,000' I am getting a verbal reminder to reset my altimeter to standard pressure.

 

I think this is RC4.

 

If so, how do I get away from the verbal reminder?

 

Thanks,

i don't think so. that's not a function of atc to remind the pilot to do something that they are responsible for doing. why do you think it's rc doing it? maybe another add-on?

RC will generate the co-pilot voice you have chosen to speak the words "Altimeter Check" when passing through the transition altitude stated for your flight authority area. The transition altitude used is in the RC controller page.

 

I don't know of any optional way to defeat it.

How about renaming/deleting the altimetercheck.wav file?

I am not sure. That may trigger a file not found error. A better way might go into the RC scripts folder, than pilot scripts. Look for altimetercheck.txt. Make a backup copy called altimetercheck.hld. Then open the .txt file in word or worldpad and delete the contents just leaving a carriage return in it, then save as altimetercheck.txt (or just save).

 

See if that causes any errors.

 

The script file is used to call up the named wav files.

 

The other alternative if you get an error with with the empty altimetercheck.txt file would be to create an empty wav file called empty.wav. Copy that into all of the winwood pilot voice folders (see the manual). Then change altimetercheck.txt to the word empty.

 

That should allow empty.wav to be played instead of altimetercheck.wav.

Hello

What aircraft are you flying?, I get this in the Feelthere Phenom and it is coming from the default GPS which the Phenom uses in modified form for its Glass displays
