I think that is what I said?

I use that function all the time. Standard I set it up to call out engine temp (or RPM and temp combined) but depending on application, any value I am interested in at that moment. On my tow plane it calls out temp when the towhook is open, and it calls out altitude when the hook is closed (AKA when I am towing, and interested in when to request the glider in tow to unhook).
