Thanks Mike. It works. I now have my throttle switch announcing each climb in a set with the Trainer switch resetting the sequence to zero. Your advice proved to be most valuable. There are some screen shots below which show the detail of the programming, the scratch pad I used to figure out the val...

I would like to be able to program a switch to count up each time it is operated and announce the next number. I have tried to think of a way to use the custom switches and the voice switches to achieve this but I have not been able to think of a way of doing it. I have no experience in using logic ...

16kHz "WAV (Microsoft) signed 16 bit PCM" is what I exported my sound files as from Audacity.

What are you listening to?

I have just tested the system and can confirm that when the display has two decimal places the voice announcement is out by a factor of 10. ie 6.13 V was announced as 61.3 V whjle 6.2 V was announced as 6.2 V. I connected the earth (negative) lead of the main pack to the negative lead of the Rx pack...

I am using r122 v1375 as well. Just used a D8RII-plus flashed to D8R-XP FW rx. FLVS-01 is attached to FSH-01 sensor hub. divider for A1=13.2 A2=19.8 , testing with 3S lipo , BEC at constant 5.5 v. Here is what i get, may help you to sort out the problem. ==>when A1 jumper is off, A2 is empty, A1 sh...

Thanks very much, Mike.
BTW Where's the "thank you" button so I can record my contribution to the impressive total of formal "thank you's" you have accumulated?

The scale factor for the Rx voltage is 11.5 v. The source of the voltage information in the original configuration is a FrSky FSH-01 telemetry hub. The scale factor for the 10s pack divider is 45.0 and the ratio of the divider is 2.98/40.2 = 0.074. The voltage divider is merely three 1 Watt resistor...

I took a new D8R - II plus Rx with the A1 shorting plug installed for Rx Voltage telemetry using the inbuilt circuit. ie new Rx and no hub connected and no voltage divider connected. The Rx voltage does not drift.

More tests tomorrow. It's bedtime.

I changed the scaling from V to v for the 40.2 V main pack voltage. The A1 channel for the Rx voltage still announced the voltage multiplied by 10. I took a new D8R - II plus Rx with the A1 shorting plug installed for Rx Voltage telemetry using the inbuilt circuit. ie new Rx and no hub connected. Th...

I have an ErSky 9x Tx with FrSky Telemetry. In one electric model I have an FrSky FSH-01 sensor hub connected to the FrSky D8II Rx at the digital input port on the side of the Rx. It is used for two temperature measurement inputs only. It is powered from the Rx. In addition I have a home crafted vol...

You make some good points. I will do some substitutions tomorrow and see which .wav files are being used. The divider is set correctly because the screen display matches my multimeter reading from the Rx Voltage Regulator. The screen displays 5.50 volts as shown in the picture below but is announced...

Thanks kaos. Yes, you are correct about playing with the switches. I have heard the "YOU FORGOT ME" message too and that is frightening when you hear it the first time! It is very very effective. I have a bug to report, I think. I have set my Tx to announce the receiver battery voltage at ...

In the voice files there is an announcement which says "inactive". My Tx started saying that word today. I don't know what initiates that warning nor do I know what I did which eventually turned the voice off.
Could someone please explain.
Mutchy

Thanks for the explanations, everyone. I had that annoying alarm today and solved it by not specifying an alarm ie Yellow or Orange or Red on the Telemetry page and just having "---". So now, having no alarm specified on my voice modified ErSky 9x, I am happy to listen to the voltages and ...

Here's my sound files for those of you who may have a Mac and could use a head start in creating a list of sound files for your transmitter. As I have said above they use the voice of Karen which does not have quite the clarity of the voice that kaos and jhsa have used but is more pleasant to my ear...

I offer for sale one of my Er9x Transmitters. All the soldering for programming the CPU, the cabling, the telemetry connections inside the module and inside the radio case have been done for you and tested. I have flown my Surprise 14 hot liner and the Merlin sports glider with this radio. The offer...

The buzz happened only with my files, and only when operated with a switch. These were files which I generated using a Mac voice and Audiacity software. I had a period of silence at the end of the tracks. Deleting that silence has fixed the problem. I built the Tx myself using parts from a JR 388 Tx...

I have an unwelcome sound generated by the hardware, I believe. It occurs at the end of the spoken words. Its a Bzzzt sound. Does anybody else have this sound?

Cool!
I like Audacity very much now that I have played with it a bit more; lucky there is a 'help' file!

I made a demo track for you, Joao. I hope you enjoy it!
Steve

I had a play with Audacity for the Mac. It is much more powerful than Switch which is just an audio converter; a Ferrari compared to a Fiat. It is as easy to use as Switch ie just drag and drop, then export as 16kHz PCM ,wav file. It is easier to use than Garage Band which is a Bugatti Veyron in com...

The 16 bit files do sound less slurred than the 8 bit but not so different that I would go through and change them all.
Steve

Making a voice file on a Mac. You can make a voice file using your own voice or one of the Macintosh voices using apps you already have that come for free with Mac. You then have to convert it to .wav format using an app like Switch File Converter: http://download.cnet.com/Switch-Audio-Converter/30...

Hello all. I used a file from an earlier jhsa post in this thread and those .wav files are the bulk of what I still have installed. I did not know of the file at the link you posted above. It's very difficult to find that sort of information and to know whether or not it applies to your board when y...

Ok. I've got the hang of defining the number of voice switches in the Safety Switches menu and have the ID0/1/2 switch announcing race mode/thermal mode/landing mode and the gear switch announcing screen ON/Off. Thanks Mike. I'll have a go at telemetry in a minute. I read kaos post again and note th...

Thanks Mike and kaos. I will use your valuable information after I write this short message. I found that the original voice files from jhsa did not have numbers from 20 to 99 so i loaded the .wav files from kaos voice file and the time count-up now annunciates all the seconds (at 8/12/16 second int...

Thanks for the explanation of the colours of the description in your .doc file for the .wav files. I have played your 0269 file and it's way cool! Er9x rocks! I have used the Safety Switches page on my Tx menu to play many of the sounds and am impressed. She has a nice voice. But how do I stop the r...

Thanks kaos I have loaded r122 successfully. I know because all my models are voice annunciated as "Easy Star"!!!! (ie .wav file #260 from jhsa'a voice files) I'll find out more later tonight when I have a chance to look at the menus. Then I'll have a listen to .wav file 0269! Some notes f...

Thanks heaps kaos.
What's this page for then?? why doesn't it have the latest version?

I want to set up voice alerts and voice repetition of telemetry values. I have read Mikes description of how to set up the voice alerts in the October 1st post above. I have downloaded jhsa's voice files from September 12 above and installed them in a folder called "voice" in the root dire...
