[bvipilots] Re: Final Message Before Defeat...

Hi Robert. 
Please correct me if I am wrong, or a fellow BVI pilot who’s using JAWS can 
correctly me if I am wrong. 
But I have notice while flying that JAWS wil tell us without doing anything 
when it is switching to ATC. 
At least I’ve heard it say from time to time ATC. 
So maybe it is switching in and out of the ATC window. 
But I could be wrong on this. 
Now I need to go stress test the latest beta. 
HTH.

Hi,

REGARDING:  could be a way for michelle to tell those of us who are blind the 
current state of the ATC window 

Yes.  I can address this issue as soon as I have completed the development of 
the next release which has a lot of updates users are anxiously awaiting.   

Regards,

Robert

  An idea then.  Maybe there could be a way for michelle to tell those of us 
who are blind the current state of the ATC window.  Like she does with the 
simulator.  I.e., when we issue the command "ATC," or, "toggle ATC," Michelle 
could say "the ATC windows is now open and in view," or, "the ATC window has 
now been closed."

    Yes.

    REGARDING: when I tell Michelle to get the local weather, doesn't that open 
the ATC window?

    No. The ATC window will be wherever it is.

    REGARDING: when the next command, "Charlotte clearance delivery," is 
spoken, ATC window should already be open. 

    Not necessarily. 

    REGARDING:  Obviously Michelle interacts with the ATC window...


    Not exactly. The Microsoft simulator opens and closes the window at various 
points in time.


    REGARDING:  In other words, how do I get all the sounds from FSX and IYP to 
be recorded as well


    I use fraps, which can be purchased at http://www.fraps.com


    NOTE: Please understand that SuperATC does not guarantee the state of the 
ATC window.

      Hi Robert,
      Quick question before I try this:  Is there a way for a sighted person to 
see whether the ATC window is open or closed?  This way I will know for sure 
the state of the ATC window when I issue the commands.  Although, now that I 
think about it, when I tell Michelle to get the local weather, doesn't that 
open the ATC window?  Therefore, when the next command, "Charlotte clearance 
delivery," is spoken, ATC window should already be open.   Obviously Michelle 
interacts with the ATC window, because after I say, "ready to copy," she 
executes something, but instead of hearing clearance delivery, I hear the 
weather info again.  So if a sighted person can see the active state of the ATC 
window, this might be helpful.    I am also going to create a recording of my 
the next attempt, if I can figure out how you're accomplishing it.  When I 
record, my voice can be recorded, but I am not quite sure how to record other 
sounds from the PC.  In other words, how do I get all the sounds from FSX and 
IYP to be recorded as well"
