Voice Assist Maverick Boresighting
-
Hi All:
I know that this is not “authentic” but I want to do it anyway. I want to voice automate part of the boresight procedure for mavericks. I actually enjoy setting it up until just after I have selected BSGT (OSB 20). Right then and there is where it gets too tedious for me. In order to verify the boresight I:
1 Master Caution
2 FACK
3 TMS Dn (unlock WPN)
4 DMS Dn (go back to TGP)
5 TMS Dn (unlock TGP)
6 TMS Up (lock and verify handoff)
7 DMS Dn (go back to WPN)
8 TMS Dn (unlock WPN)
9 MSL STEPSo chasing the lock and SOI here is – for me – overkill. But it seems that BMS has blocked voice activation for TMS Dn, TMS Up, DMS Dn, and Missile Step. I can see why if they did because they may feel like it’s cheating especially human vs human. I differ in opinion on that because I think most of us can click a button faster than we can say “lock” or “sensor” but I suppose one could macro in a bunch of stuff that would be unfair. Anyway, I mainly want to know if I am correct that you cannot voice activate TMS Dn, TMS Up, DMS Dn, and MSL Step? Thanks.

I cannot image why not since these all have keyboard commands.

If you’re clicking on the MFDs, may I suggest a touchscreen with helious and/or the cougar MFDs. The MFDs are invaluable to me now; not sure why I waited so long to get them.

BMS do not “block” voice activation. Would be useful for you to state what keys you tried giving voice commands too. You can customize your key file if the defaults are a problem E.G Shift Home = Tms Up as default.
