Don’t know if I could help much with this topic or not Robert.
The IYP program installs pretty much by itself after you click on the install
button.
After the initial installation and after firing up IYP for the first time and
you use the command blind pilot mode.
That’s hoping you read at least the small flight deck pamphlet first. GRIN.
You can use the voice command open settings pannel and tab through the seetings
and select which items you would like checked or turned on or left unchecked or
left turned off.
Then close the settings pannel and go to the options pannel.
Use the open pannel feature.
A quick way to get to name is to use the alt n and type in the name you’d like
IYP to know you by.
Then tab over once and up and or down arrow to what rank you’d like to be.
Then alt u for up dating the program.
It will ask you if you’d like to do this.
You can say yes and or I believe just smack the good old friend the enter key
to start the up date.
Wait until Michelle tells you that everything as been completed.
A very important spot that I almost forgot to mention.
Just to the left of the name feature and to the right of the up date feature is
what do you like to use for a fo voice.
for we using 64 bit processors and windows 7, we have really no choic and have
to select ms. Anna which is the only voice in the list.
Then after the up date has done it’s thing simply restart to gold and dark and
you should be able to start your first flight.
How was that Robert?
Be on the look out for my letter with the subject need taxiing advice please.

Well, this is where I am at a HUGE disadvantage, because I know absolutely
nothing about JAWS or the like. SO, sorry Ron, I can be of no help.
In fact, what I really need help with, is the entire BVI installation and set
up aspects for inclusion in the Special Manual.
HELP !!!
You brought it up Ron. <SMILES>

Yes, JFW does announce the ATC menu being open, window eyes announces a
change, but is not explicit like JFW.
I’m not sure whether 4.71 has yet been announced on this list, the
performance improvement has rendered me speechless, so as I can’t speak, back
to my flight to Palermo, see if I encounter the same mountain as Jordan.
Unbelievable increase in speed.

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.

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"
