Most of the system’s functions can
be controlled by voice commands
activated with the
button. To
control your compass system by
voice:
Press and release the
button.
Wait for the beep.
Give a voice command.
You should use the voice control
system as much as possible, and
consider manual entry using the
as a ‘‘back-up’’
method of entry.
If the system does not understand a
command or you wait too long to
give a command, it responds with
‘‘Pardon,’’ ‘‘Please repeat,’’ or ‘‘Would
you say again.’’ If the system cannot
perform a command or the
command is not appropriate for the
screen you are on, it sounds a beep.
Anytime you are not sure of what
voice commands are available on a
screen, you can always say ‘‘Help’’ at
any screen. The system can then
read the list of commands to you.
When you speak a command, the
system generally either repeats the
command as a confirmation or asks
you for further information. If you do
not wish to hear this feedback, you
can turn it off. See the
setting in
Setup.
If you hear a prompt such as ‘‘Please
use the interface dial to...’’ or ‘‘Please
choose an area with the interface
dial.’’ the system is asking for input
that cannot be done by voice.
Once the microphone picks up your
command, the system changes the
display in response to the command
and prompts you for the next
command. Using the
button,
answer the prompts as required.
