Voice Command to Change Radio Frequencies

Featured Replies

In the FS2Crew Manual for the PMDG 777 it notes the voice command to change the COMM 1 or 2 frequency as follows: "SET XXX (POINT/ DECIMAL) ON (STANDBY) COMM ( 1 / 2)"  This voice command does not work for me at all.  I tried guessing at alternatives and found that "SET XXX (POINT) on Frequency 1" did something but only on the FO side and inconsistently at that.

Could somebody please explain, if you know, what the proper voice command sequence(s) is/are to fully control the radios by voice.

Thanks!

You can also check the CVR log here to see if your command was properly detected:

C:\Users\***your user name****\AppData\Roaming\FS2Crew2010\Versions\PMDG777\CVR

 

If you don't see your command listed, it means the speech system never "heard it".

Try re-training your voice.

Hi,

What do you see in the "Green bar" on top of the screen that displays what the speech system "hears"?

 

I don't recall but I will check.

Here is an example from the log: set one two two point eight zero on comm one

I will say that it almost always understands my speech (US native english speaker).

One thing you didn't answer -- what is the proper phraseology?

Ok.  The green text bar wasn't showing my voice commands even though most of the commands worked just fine.  I switched over to the maddog and the green bar was showing my voice commands.  So, I have reinstalled the PMDG 777 FS2Crew package and I'm going to retest.  I will say, as you can see from log entry, that I stated the command in accordance with the syntax you show above and nothing happened.  Here is the log entry again:  set one two two point eight zero on comm one.  

Hopefully the reinstall will help.  I may try the voice retraining again just in case that makes a difference.

And just so you know, the regular checklist commands run fine.

I reinstalled the FS2Crew pack.  I then retrained my voice in W10.  Although the green bar still isn't showing my words (I do have message text enabled), all the commands are working well, including setting the radios.  So I think everything is ok now.  Thanks.
