Voice Control System
The voice control system is intended to assist the driver during a journey by giving him/her access to a series of functions, without diverting his/her attention from the road, and by enabling him/her to have intuitive control of the functions. This function is controlled using the software integrated in the operating unit. The user can activate the voice control using the VCS [SBS] switch (S93/2). A signal, generated in the operating unit, sounds when the VCS [SBS] (voice control system) is operational. After that, the user can enter into a dialog with the system. The system, however, only supports the Japanese language.
The following components can be controlled via the VCS:
^ Telephone components
^ Audio/video components
^ Navigation components
^ Help function (with command display on the operating unit)
On Japanese portable CTELs, the number, name and a phonetic spelling of the name are stored in the directory. If the directory is transferred from the portable CTEL to the operating unit, this makes all the directory entries available immediately including for voice control. In other national versions by contrast, each stored entry requires a separate voice command to be stored.
If problems occur with the command input by the user, the system responds with an appropriate command. This is generated in the operating unit and output via the audio gateway control unit (N93/1).
