In the absence of a navigation system, voice command recognition is performed by the transceiver module (TM), to which the microphone is directly connected. If the vehicle is equipped with a navigation system, the software for the voice command recognition system is located in the navigation system computer, and the microphone is directly connected to both the navigation system computer and the transceiver module. In the absence of a navigation system, the functionality of the voice command recognition system is somewhat reduced compared to vehicles equipped with a navigation system.
The TM module contains software for the voice command recognition system for the telephone only.
Voice control enables the driver to activate important functions of the car phone or navigation system without manually manipulating the controls. This allows the driver to remain focused on driving. When the voice control system is activated, any preset command will be converted into a signal to control the phone or navigation system. The system determines which component the command was intended for and routes it to the appropriate location. The system assists the driver with announcements or questions.
Telephone
The following phone functions can be activated and used using voice control.
Dialing a number
This function allows you to dial a number (up to 20 characters) via editable digital input and a number displayed on the instrument cluster information centre display. The maximum number of digits recognised at one time is 16.
Phone book
Allows the user to save entered phone numbers under the entered name tag. Name tags are keywords that allow the phone number to be associated with the subscriber.
(Details can be found on the website: «lrman.ru»)
This function allows you to store 50 telephone numbers with associated name tags that allow you to make a voice call. The voice phone book should not be confused with the regular phone book found in the SIM card or in the cellular phone. This function allows you to edit the name tags and the phone book, and also provides audible feedback when registering a name tag. Since the name tags are part of the audible feedback, the corresponding telephone number is displayed in text form on the display of the information center in the instrument cluster.
You can also use the "Add Name" option to enter a phone number using the IHU, then add a voice tag and save the result to the voice recognition system's phone book.
Radio
The following radio functions can be activated and used using voice control.
Turning on the radio
The user can turn on the radio using a voice command. Command "Radio On" (turning on the radio) turns on the ICE system in radio receiver mode to the station that was listened to before switching off.
Setting up the radio
The user can tune to the desired radio station in the required frequency range.
Presets on the station
The user can assign frequencies of specific radio stations in the required frequency range to memory cells. You must first tune in to a station in the selected range. If the memory cell is already occupied, a new cell will be assigned to it.
The automatic preset function allows the radio system to find the six strongest stations and assign them to preset memory locations.
There are a total of nine memory cells for each of the bands: FM, FMA, AM, AMA, MW, MWA and LW (for the LW band, only nine presets are available, so automatic presetting is not possible).
Voice commands allow the user to tune the radio to a preset location within the currently enabled band.
Catalog of radio stations
This function allows you to assign a name tag to the current frequency of the active range, including for satellite radio (SDARS). If the user pronounces the assigned name tag, the system will identify the corresponding radio station frequency and tune in to it. This function allows you to record 20 name tags that allow you to make a voice call. The system allows you to scroll through the entire catalog with the ability to play or delete the announced station. It also allows you to delete name tags individually.
Since the name tags are part of the audio feedback signals, the corresponding frequency and range are displayed in text form on the instrument cluster information center display.
CD changer
The following CD changer functions can be activated and used by voice control.
Voice commands are the standard control method, with the exception of some functions that are controlled using the steering wheel switches. Voice commands can be set for 256 tracks on a CD. Text and numeric information is displayed in 3-digit format, i.e. track 6 is displayed as "006". For MP3 discs, directory up/down commands can be set. For more information, refer to Audio System (415-01 Audio Unit)
Display
The user can change the operating modes of the touch display using voice commands.
Voice recognition system settings
Turn voice feedback on/off
The user can select the acoustic feedback mode or cancel this mode, except for some functions that require acoustic feedback to operate.
Repetition
The repeat command requires the voice recognition system to repeat the last dialog confirmation in voice and text.
Notebook
This feature allows the user to record a series of 10 notes, each lasting no more than five minutes.
The user can play or delete notes in the order they were recorded. There is also the option to completely delete the notebook.
Traffic Management Message Channel (TMC)
The TMS system is part of the navigation system that provides it with real-time traffic information. Voice commands are on or off. For more information, refer to Navigation System (419-07 Navigation System)
TMC also provides dynamic route assistance. This function can also be switched on/off using voice commands.
