Voice countdown timer is possible on v2.81.

I was playing around with the enhanced timer features some time ago and here is a simple example which I setup below:**

In this 5 min countdown timer example:
  • Timer is activated by my throttle stick
  • Initial long Beep given to indicated timer start.
  • Short beeps issued at every minute followed by short Voice announcements at each minute. The voice is set to trigger one second after the beep so they don't overlap.
  • At 30sec remaining mark a long Voice announcement is made indicating 30secs to go
  • At 10secs remaining a Voice countdown is initiated counting down all the way to 0 ie. 10...9...8 etc....
  • I have also setup a button which if pressed announces the exact time at that instant.
  • A second timer is also setup which starts to count upwards when the countdown timer has reached zero so I can record elapsed time after countdown timer has completed.
The timer features allow the user to setup fairly complex timer configurations.

** Looks like I cannot post any pics or attachments until I reach a 10 post threshold....So no screenshots as yet...!

BTW - Hello to everyone - My first post on RCU - Hope to contribute something worthwhile to the forums....
