Voice Control
Voice Control harnesses the power of Speech Recognition technology to interface with the simulation.
Please select from the appropriate category below:

Home > Aerosoft Airbus X Series > Voice Control > General Requirements
General Requirements
To use a 'Voice Control' version of FS2Crew, you need to meet the following requirements:
Minimums:
Microsoft Flight Simulator X (FSX)
A microphone.
Host Aircraft Requirements:
Required Aircraft: Aerosoft Airbus X
Available from Aerosoft at: www.aerosoft.com
You will need to have the latest version and Hot Fixes. Please check the Aerosoft Support Forum for information.
Speech Recognition Requirements:
1 . Aerosoft Airbus X Series
www.fs2crew.com
Windows XP Windows Vista,
Windows 7 and
Windows 8
XP users must install SAPI if it's not already installed.
Windows Vista, Windows 7 and Windows 8 users, particularly those from outside the United States, must be able to set their Speech Recognition
language setting to ENGLISH - US. Please consult the Speech Recognition Setup page for more information.
Recommended:
USB headset.
Windows 7 - 64 bits or Windows 8 - 64 bits.
Notes:
1. A generic, no-name brand USB headset is usually sufficient. An expensive, noise-cancelling headset is a plus, but it's hardly necessary. FS2Crew highly
recommends USB headsets because they are much easier to configure and setup compared to the old style 'plug-in-a-jack' type headsets.
2. Windows 7 64 and Windows 8 handles memory much better than XP or Vista. If you're still using XP or Vista, FS2Crew recommends upgrading to
Windows 7 64. In addition, if you have a non-English version of Windows, FS2Crew recommends that you purchase Windows 8 from Microsoft as it
easily allows you to install the required English - US voice pack.

Speech Recognition Setup
Your Speech Recognition setup varies depending on your Operating System.
Please select your Operating System below:

Home > Aerosoft Airbus X Series > Voice Control > Speech Recognition Setup > Windows XP
Windows XP
Step 1:
XP users may or may not have the required 'Speech Recognition API' (SAPI) installed on their computer.
Aerosoft Airbus X Series . 2

http://download.microsoft.com/download/B/4/3/B4314928-7B71-4336-9DE7-6FA4CF00B7B3/SpeechSDK51.exe
The file is called: SpeechSDK51.exe
Step 2:
How to install SAPI:
1. Create a temporary folder on your desktop. You can give it any name.
2. Double click the 'SpeechSDK51.exe' file you just downloaded.
3. You will be asked to extract the contents of the exe to a folder.
4. Click the 'Browse' button and select your temporary folder, then press 'Unzip'.
5. Open your temporary folder, and double-click "Setup.exe".
6. When done, you can delete the temporary folder.
Step 3:
Your Speech Properties panel in XP should look like the following screen shot:
Step 4:
Press 'Train Profile' to run the voice training.
Note:
If you experience difficulties with Speech Recognition, please consult the Troubleshooting section.

Home > Aerosoft Airbus X Series > Voice Control > Speech Recognition Setup > Windows Vista, Windows 7 and Windows 8
www.fs2crew.com
Windows Vista, Windows 7 and Windows 8
Step 1:
Open the 'Windows Speech Recognition' panel via the Windows Control Panel. You can locate this panel easily by typing "speech recognition" in the Search Box
on the Windows Control page page as shown below.
Step 2:
Microsoft's 'Windows Speech Recognition' system must be OFF prior to loading Flight Simulator.
To ensure Windows Speech Recognition does not load on Windows Startup, make sure 'Run Speech Recognition at Start-up' is unchecked on the Speech
Properties -> Speech Recognition page, which is located in the Windows Control Panel.

www.fs2crew.com
Make Sure 'Run Speech Recognition at start-up' is UNCHECKED!
Step 3:
The 'Language' setting on the Speech Properties -> Speech Recognition page must be set to ENGLISH - US.
This is a CRITICAL step that is often overlooked by users from English speaking countries other than the United States, especially those from
the UK and Australia.
WINDOWS 8 USERS: You will need to download the English - US language pack from Microsoft if your OS is not currently set to English - US. The good news
is that anyone can add the English - US language pack very easily.
www.fs2crew.com
If you are running a non-English 'Home' version of Windows 7 or Vista, and you cannot set your speech language setting to English - US, you have five options:
1. Install Windows 8 (Best Solution) and download the English - US language pack from Microsoft (all Win 8 owners can do this). Click here to learn how.
2. Upgrade to Windows 7 'Ultimate' or 'Enterprise'. 'Ultimate' or 'Enterprise' owners are able to download and install the English language pack from
Microsoft, but 'Home' version owners cannot.
3. Downgrade to Windows XP.
4. Install Vistalizator. Vistalizator will switch your OS to English. Many FS2Crew users from non-English speaking countries have used Vistalizator
successfully so they can enjoy the benefits of Voice Control. (Note: To use Vistalizator, you do not need to uninstall Windows 7 SP1... all you need to
do is run Vistalizator in compatibility mode.)
Step 4:
Run the Voice Training so the computer can learn your voice.
This is a CRITICAL step. If you don't run the voice training, your speech recognition accuracy rates will not be high.
You may even want to run the voice training more than once.

Soft Mute Hard Mute
Note:
If you experience difficulties with Speech Recognition, please consult the Trouble shooting section.

Home > Aerosoft Airbus X Series > Voice Control > Mute Key Setup
Mute Key Setup
'Mute' is used to prevent the virtual First Officer/ PNF from acting on any inputs received by the Speech Recognition system.
'Mute' is useful when communicating with on-line ATC, or if you do not anticipate communicating with the virtual First Officer for extended periods of time.
There are two kinds of Mute: Soft Mute and Hard Mute.

www.fs2crew.com
Home > Aerosoft Airbus X Series > Voice Control > Mute Key Setup > Soft Mute
Soft Mute
Used when you only want to employ Mute temporarily, such as when communicating with on-line ATC.
Works on a "Push-to-Hold" basis.
If using on-line ATC, you would assign 'Soft Mute' to the same key used for your ATC 'Push-to-Talk (PTT) switch'.
An "M" symbol will appear in the left hand side of the FS2Crew Main Panel display area when operating.
By default, the LEFT or RIGHT CONTROL key acts as the SOFT MUTE KEY.
To create a Soft Mute key assignment in addition to the default LEFT and RIGHT CONTROL KEY, create a joystick or keyboard button assignment for
'PROPELLER SYNC (ON/ OFF)' in the FSX 'SETTINGS - CONTROLS' menu.
I mportant Reminder: Even with mute enabled, the Speech Recognition will still detect any inputs received via your microphone; in fact, you will still see
activity in the Green Bar that displays what the Speech Recognition system is 'detecting'. The difference, however, is that the virtual FO will not act on any
words or phrases the speech the Speech Recognition system detects.
For example, if you cough, and the Speech Recognition system somehow interprets that as "Gear Down", you will still see "Gear Down" in the Green Bar, but the
FO will not put the gear down.

Home > Aerosoft Airbus X Series > Voice Control > Mute Key Setup > Hard Mute
Hard Mute
Used when you want to employ Mute for extended periods of time.
Works on a Toggle On/Off basis.
An "M+" symbol will appear in the left hand side of the FS2Crew Main Panel display when operating.
Can be toggled On/Off by pressing the "HM" button on the FS2Crew Main Panel.
Can also be toggled On/Off by creating a keyboard or joystick assignment for ALTERNATE STATIC SOURCE (ON/ OFF) in the FSX 'SETTINGS -

www.fs2crew.com
CONTROLS' menu.

Troubleshooting
FS2Crew has years of experience developing flight simulation products. The following solutions can be used to solve problems you may experience.
Problem: I'm getting a Crash to Desktop (CTD) when I load the host Aircraft, and the the error message refers to 'FS2AUDIO.DLL'.
Solutions:
1. If you have two sound cards running in parallel, disable one of them.
2. If you are running any program in the background that attempts to strip Digital Music Rights (DRM) from music, such as Tune Bite, Sound
Taxi or Sound Bite, please disable them. They interfere with FS2Crew's Audio Engine. Some of these types of programs are legal in parts of Europe,
but they are not legal in the United Sates.
3. Re-install FS2Crew again, but do not click 'cancel' during the install. Wait for the install to finish.
4. If using a Creative Labs X-Fi Extreme Audio Sound Card, uninstall the latest driver and re-install the original driver off the CD that came with
your Sound Card. The latest driver conflicts with the FS2Crew Audio engine. (If you no longer have your original driver disk, click here to download the
original driver).
5. Sometimes users have corrupt system files/data on their Operating System. They solved their problem by doing a clean re-install of their OS or by
repairing their OS. Follow this link to learn how to repair a corrupt Windows 7 installation. You will need to go to the Windows Download Center and
Download Windows 7, for example, with SP1 and install using the Update option. You will need to re-activate Windows 7.
6. Sometimes users have corrupt versions of the FSX.CFG file. Delete the FSX.CFG file. It will re-build automatically when you load FSX. Your FSX.CFG
file is located here:
Windows XP: \ Documents and Settings\ <username>\ Application Data\ Microsoft\ FSX
Windows Vista/ 7 & 8: \ Users\ <username>\ AppData\ Roaming\ Microsoft\ FSX
www.fs2crew.com
Problem: The 'VOICE' button on the FS2Crew Main Panel will not stay on.
Solution:
1. If using Vista or Windows 7, ensure your Microsoft Speech Recognizer is set to English - US. This is something users from the UK or Australia often
miss. If using XP, ensure you installed SAPI.
2. Check for error messages in the 'Speech Recognition I nit Log', which will be available via C:\ Users\ ***YOUR USER
NAME****\ AppData\ Roaming\ FS2Crew2010\ Speech Engine Log. Open the Log with Notepad.
In 99 percent of all cases the problem is because you forget to set your Speech Recognition Language Setting to English - US if using Vista or
Windows 7, but sometimes the problem is associated with having a corrupt system that prevents the Speech Recognition engine from loading
properly, particularly if the Speech Recognition Init log shows this error:
Creating the ISpRecoContext object... Error Code: 0x80045003
We're finding that some 3rd party programs that perform Systems Repair/Mechanic type functions may be damaging the user's Registry, which in turns
damages the speech recognition system that comes with Windows.
In these cases you'll find that all 3rd party programs on your computer that use Microsoft's Speech Recognition API will be non-functional, not just
FS2Crew.
Vista / Windows 7 users have resolved this problem by re-installing Windows. We also suggest trying a Systems Restore.
XP users can try uninstalling SAPI and then re-installing it.
If you get this error:
Creating the I SpAudio object... Error Code: 0x8004503a
Check your USB headset. It may be faulty. Exit Flight Simulator, and try loading FS2Crew again but with your USB headset unplugged.
Problem: When using the FS Video Marshaller, my computer crashes.
Solution:
1. You must be in 'Windowed'', not 'Full-Screen' mode when using the Video Marshaller. You can switch between video screen modes by pressing ALT
ENTER on your keyboard. Only attempt to open the FS Video Marshaller panel via the FS2Crew Main Panel if you are in Windowed Mode.

www.fs2crew.com
Problem: During flight, I get random crashes.
Solution:
1. Random crashes can be attributable to numerous different sources and can be very complex to troubleshoot. They are often connected to bad video
and audio drivers. Also, certain 3rd party scenery or AI traffic in Flight Simulator can be faulty and eat up huge amounts of memory. If you get a
random crash, you should try flying in an area that does not use 3rd party scenery or AI traffic. Certain 3rd party scenery add-ons are infamous for
causing problems. FS2Crew adds very little overhead to the simulation in terms of memory usage. FS2Crew is not a heavy graphic program, and
heavy graphics are what eat up the largest amounts of memory. If you're experiencing random crashes, you may want to move your FSX display
sliders to the left (lower the LOD especially) as you may be hitting FSX's 4 GB internal memory limit. You may simply be pushing your system too hard.
You may also want to consider deleting your FSX.CFG file as it may be corrupt. FSX will rebuild a new FSX.cfg file when it loads.
2. Upgrading to Windows 7 - 64 bits (or later) is highly recommended. Windows 7 handles memory more efficiently than XP or Vista.
Recommended Sites to help Troubleshoot Random Crashes:
Avsim CTD Forum
Problem: I'm experiencing a frame rate drop.
Solution:
1. Ensure your speech recognition language is set up properly. If it's not, your system will grind to a halt.
2. Double check your Sound Card settings. One beta tester cranked his sound card's settings up to 24 bit (192,000) and had some frame rate loss. When
he returned his sound card settings to their default settings - 16 bit (44,000) - his frame rates returned to normal.
Problem: The Airbus is not acting properly.
Solution:
1. Open the FS2Crew Main Panel only AFTER you have loaded your Airbus panel state file from the right MCDU.
2. Re-install the Airbus. We're finding that corrupted panel state files can induce odd problems.
Problem: I cannot hear the FO's voice, or other voices.
Solution:
1. Check your audio setup. If using a headset, ensure you've selected the associated Audio Device on the FS2Crew Configuration Panel. As a test, make
sure HS (Headset) is unchecked on the FS2Crew Main Panel. This way all sound should be routes through your main speakers. Sometimes users just
have complex audio hardware setups, and they just need to experiment with their audio hardware settings. Also consider getting a USB headset: USB
headsets can resolve a lot of problems due to their simplicity.
2. FS2Crew uses the right and left speaker channels. If using surround sound, ensure you have right and left speakers assigned and available. One
user mistakenly had his rear speakers setup as his his side speakers with no side speakers physically present.
3. If you have a 5.1 speaker sound system, set your speaker configuration to "Stereo" via the Realtek Audio Manager (assuming you're using the
Realtek Audio Manager).
Problem: My voice recognition results are not very good.
Solution:
www.fs2crew.com
1. Check your audio setup.
2. Get a USB headset.
3. Be sure to run the Voice Training.
4. Speak in a neutral mid-western American style accent in a clear and distinct way.
5. Reduce ambient background noise as much as possible.
6. Upgrade to Windows 7 or 8- 64 bit. The Windows 7 and 8's speech recognition engine is better than XP's.
Problem: Speech recognition is having problems detecting certain words. Can I train the speech recognition system for "specific" words?
Solution:
1. Yes, you can use the dictation facility in Windows.
2. First, start 'Windows Speech Recognition' (this is not the FS2Crew Speech Recognition system, but rather the speech recognition system that comes
with Windows).
3. Open a text document.
4. Next, dictate a list of words you are having trouble with.
5. Every time the speech recognizer makes a mistake, use the "CORRECT THAT" voice command. This effectively train the speech recognition engine to
recognize how you pronounce these words. You may need to dictate and correct the same words multiple times until the recognition rate improves.
There is another way (and better way) to train specific words as well for Vista and Win 7 users:
1. Open the Microsoft Windows Speech Recognizer and RIGHT CLICK the microphone icon. You can open the Windows Speech Recognizer by typing
"Speech Recognition" in the search for programs box in the start menu.
2. Click "ON: Listen to everything I say". Next, Select "OPEN THE SPEECH DICTIONARY" and select "ADD A NEW WORD".
3. When done, turn off Windows Speech Recognition. It CANNOT be running while using FS2Crew. It must be OFF!

www.fs2crew.com
Problem: I spoke "LANDING CHECKLIST", and "Landing Checklist" was displayed in the Green Bar. So I know the Speech Recognition system detected the
correct phrase, but nothing happened. The FO never replied.
Solution:
1. You were probably in the wrong FS2Crew Mode. The displayed mode in the FS2Crew Main Panel must match the checklist you are attempting to use.
For example, in order for the Landing Checklist to work, the mode in the FS2Crew Main Panel must say "LANDING".
Problem: The text in the FS2Crew Panel windows seems much too large.
Solution:
1. Reset your Windows Font size to the default, 'normal', setting: 100 percent.
Problem: I can't get FS2Crew sounds to play through my headset with other sounds coming through my speakers.
Solution:
1. Go to the FSX - SETTINGS - SOUND menu. Set 'Sounds' to your speakers and 'Voice' to your headset. On the FS2Crew Config Panel, select your
audio device associated with your headset then press HS on the Main Panel.
Problem: The FO's volume is jumpy.
Solution:
1. Go to Control Panel -> Hardware and Sound -> Sound -> Communications. Select "Do Nothing" when Windows detects
communications activity and click apply.
www.fs2crew.com
Problem: When I'm flying in FSX with FS2Crew running, if I change to the desktop and then change the task back to FSX, I loose my FS2Crew sounds.
Solution (Based on Windows 7 / 8 ):
1. Right click on the speaker in the taskbar (lower right near the clock).
2. Go up to "Playback Devices".
3. Right click on the audio device that is in use for your FS2Crew and go to "Properties".
4. Now click on the "Advanced" tab at the top.
5. Now uncheck the two boxes as shown below.

Configurator
The Aerosoft Airbus Configurator is used to enable and disable FS2Crew, and access FS2Crew services.
The Configurator will dynamically add or remove FS2Crew window and gauge entries to or from the Airbus's panel.cfg files.
If you made custom modifications to the airbus's panel.cfg file, they should remain in tact.
Note the Voice and Button Control versions cannot be enabled at the same time.
PLEASE DOWNLOAD THE LATEST VERSION OF THE CONFIGURATOR FROM THE AEROSOFT SUPPORT FORUM. IT'S THE VERSION WITH THE
FS2CREW ENTRIES!!!!
IMPORTANT:
To ensure the Configurator can successfully modify the Airbus's panel.cfg files, please fully disable "User Account Control" to avoid Windows write permissions
issues.
You should also run the Configurator as an Admin by right clicking on the Configurator icon and selecting "Run as Adminstrator".
The Configurator is located in:

Opening and Closing the Main Panel
Unlike in other versions of FS2Crew, you cannot open the FS2Crew Main Panel by clicking an area on the instrument panel. This is due to a technical limitation
with the Airbus.
The only way to open the Main Panel is by creating a keyboard/joystick assignment as shown below:
Create a joystick or keyboard button assignment for 'AUTOFEATHER (ARM/ OFF)' in the FSX 'SETTINGS - CONTROLS' menu.
You can select any J oystick or Keyboard assignment (or both).
If using a keyboard assignment, we recommend using a single key, like the letter "C", instead of a complex combination.
You may need to over-write an existing FS key assignment. The majority of the FS key assignments you'll never use, so it's rarely a problem.

Flows
Multi-crew flying is like a highly choreographed role-play, and the pilots are the actors.
'Flows' refer to the specific sequence of actions each crew member performs during certain stages of the flight. It's like an actor's script.
In the simulation, each flow has a defined 'trigger point'. In order for the virtual First Officer to start his 'flow' in the simulation, the trigger point must be hit.
Please note that, unless otherwise specified, in FS2Crew:

The end-user in FS2Crew is the Captain and the Pilot Flying.

De-Icing Procedures
FS2Crew for the Aerosoft Airbus models de-icing procedures both at the stand and at remote pads.
Notes:
You should radio the de-icing coordinator at least 15 minutes prior to engine start to coordinate de-icing.
IMPORTANT (REQUIRED COMM RADIO FREQ):
To communicate with the de-icing crew on the radio, you must set COMM RADIO 1 or COMM RADIO 2 to 121.65.

www.fs2crew.com
To initiate the conversation with the de-icing crew, using the following trigger phrase, which must be spoken separately and clearly from any other phrases so
the speech recognition system can easily detect the phrase..
REQUESTING DE-ICING.
Example: "De-Ice Coordinator, it's American Flight 24... requesting de-icing."
The De-Ice Coordinator will respond "Go Ahead." You will then tell the De-Ice Coordinator what your requirements are for de-icing and your estimated
departure time in 'Zulu' time.
ThetriggerspeechphrasetoclosetheconversationisZULU TIME.
J ust prior to de-icing and if you want to de-ice at the gate prior to engine start, command the FO to prepare for de-icing by speaking:
PREPARE FOR DE-ICE.
Notethatifyouaredeicingataremotepad,youwouldspeakPREPARE FOR DE-ICEjustpriortothestartofdeicingprocedures.That'sthetriggerforthe

FO's Flow:
1. CAB PRESS MODE SEL AUTO (Not currently modeled in the Aerosoft Airbus)
2. ENG BLEED 1 + 2 OFF
3. APU BLEED OFF
4. DITCHING push button ON (Not currently modeled in the Aerosoft Airbus)
5. GND COOL OFF (Not currently modeled in the Aerosoft Airbus)
Captain's Flow:
1. THRUST LEVERS IDLE
The FO will leave the APU running if it is already on. If you wish to have the APU off during de-icing, you must manually shut-it down, however, ensure the

AftertheFOhascompletedhisdeicingflow,speak:DE-ICE COORDINATOR WE ARE PREPARED FOR SPRAYINGtotelltheDeIcecoordinatorthatyoure
ready to start the de-icing.
The de-icing team will then de-ice the aircraft. This procedure takes approximately 3 minutes.
When de-icing is complete, the De-Ice Coordinator will radio you, and provide you with his employee number, the start and end time, etc.
SpeakTHANK YOU FOR YOUR HELPtodisconnecttheDeIceCoordinatorthatphraseisalsothetriggerfortheFOtoconfiguretheaircraftafterthede

1. DITCHING pushbutton OFF (Not currently modeled in the Aerosoft Airbus)
2. ENG BLEED 1 + 2 ON

Note that the FO will wait one minute before before turning the bleeds back on to prevent de-icing fumes from being ingested into the aircraft. Please be
patient during this period.
As Captain, you need to:
1. APU BLEED SET AS REQUIRED (You may want to consider leaving the APU Bleed Off for takeoff due to the possibility of de-icing fluid ingestion.)

Home > Aerosoft Airbus X Series > Voice Control > Procedures > Cold Weather Procedures
Cold Weather Procedures
FS2Crew for the Aerosoft Airbus models cold weather procedures. If the route to the runway is heavily contaminated, you may wish to use cold weather
procedures. This entails taxing to the runway with the flaps up to ensure no slush, etc., jams up the flaps.
NOTES:
www.fs2crew.com
1. Toenablecoldweatherprocedures,selectCONTAMCLDPROC(Y)inthedeparturebrief.
2. The FO will not set the takeoff flaps during his After Start flow.
3. The FO will instead set the takeoff flaps after you call for the BEFORE TAKEOFF CHECKLIST.

Rejected Takeoff Procedures
ToinitiateaRejectedTakeoff,speak:STOP.
Perform the following:
1. Thrust Levers Idle.
2. Reverse Thrust Maximum Available.
FS2Crew will change to ROLL-OUT mode.
When the aircraft stops:
1. Reverse Stowed.
2. Parking Brake Apply.
3. PA: "ATTENTION CREW AT STATIONS".
If Evacuation is required:
1. Engine Master (All) Off.
2. PA: "THIS IS THE CAPTAIN -EVACUATE, EVACUATE, EVACUATE"
When you exit the runway, you have two options:
1. If you are returning to the gate, disarm the ground spoilers.
The FO will then perform his normal After Landing flow and you can return the gate as per a normal after landing/arrival sequence.
Or:
2.Ifyouwanttotaxibackforanothertakeoff,speak:LETS TAXI BACK TO THE RUNWAY.
You will then need to run the Before Takeoff Checklist again.
