Help! AFE lost his voice!

Featured Replies

All of a sudden my AFE has gone silent. All of the sounds of switches, engines, etc. all work. Yet the speaking responses of the AFE do not. I can play the WAV files with Quicktime no problem. I have restarted and even re-installed the DC-6.

 

All I can think of is that I did an Abort earlier and since then he is speechless.

 

How do I get it back?

 

Thanks

Never mind, self-solved.

 

Finally realized the Com Radio sound level was zeroed out. It apparently affects all spoken voices.

 

Thanks!

Yes, that happened me a few days ago too. Not sure what would have caused this. In any case, a glance at the manual gave me the reason. :)

ATC: Yeah, it's OK. He's not hungry.

If any of you catch the add-on that adjusts the sound without re-setting it later, please send a message to that developer. We would want to know if it was us, too.

I'll keep an eye on it Kyle
