When I first got my EX, I'm certain that the sat nav system gave audio information on TMC events (spoke and told me that a delay was ahead)...did I dream this, because i've not heard it for months!
Secondly, how do I get the system to read out to me the names of saved addresses in my address book. It was doing this wonderfully, and then stopped. I think I must have turned something off.
So, if you could kindly save me time guessing and reading the manual...that'd be fab.
I've not experienced audio TMC warnings. With regards to the read out of names from your address book, as far as i know it won't read the names you can store in the Sat Nav but it will read out the names you store in the phone book. (phone book is seperate to the Sat Nav so you won't see the names and numbers on screen hence why it reads them out to you)
I know that TrafficMaster advertise that TMC does send out verbals within the data, that's how my Tm Q-Busta works.
I have never had my built in one do that though and as far as I can determine it can't, maybe it was just the RDS radio data?
If it can then that would be a big plus because I can't work out easily when I've plotted a route what the TMC jam data is trying to tell me when if offers a detour.
I think it shows the stretch of road, then the particular section affected, then the type of delay and expected delay period.
I think it's information overload when driving. I need someting that is quick to take in.
Right, I've sorted out the reading of addresses and names...so I wasn't dreaming on that point. Still awaiting to hear about the TMC. Like I said, i'm pretty sure it's done it in the past....
Right, this is how to turn audio on for the address book....get ready to laugh as your Civic does it's very best to read the names programmed.
Step 1 - Go into SETTING SCREEN 2 (toggle twice right from the nav. menu)
Step 2 - Select CONFIGURATION
Step 3 - Select ON under VOICE RECOGNITION FEEDBACK
Step 4 - Say sorry if you accused me of dreaming - lol!!!!
Not sure about the TMC audio but you can have audio on Fav places which reads out what ever you put in. Also reads out the radio stations. Not sure which menu it in but its in the configuration menu under guidance will look tonight .
Checked mine and the Voice Recognition Feedback was already on - what's it supposed to do ?
Whilst in there I changed the Dial Feedback from off to Auto - what's that supposed to do ?
Turning it On gets the unit to speak the selections as you rotate the dial but Auto hasn't triggered anything yet.
Going right back to the start though, I've never had audio about the TMC events.
