DVD and CF Player must be trained after initial software installation, and must be selected as Global Commands via Setup

Global Command Words Available

Global commands are Voice Commands that are available after you “wake up” the Joyride™ system: What can I say?, What time is it?, Help, DVD Player, CF Player, CD Player, Voice Memo, Address Book, Messages, Volume, Mute, Clock, Setup, Navigation, Radio, End, Auxiliary and Audio. You must voice train additional command words that are not yet available. See “Custom Commands” below.

Program Level Commands

Program level commands such as Stop, Random, Select, Dial, Traffic, Email, News, are commands that are local and specific to each program. Say“What can I say?”within a specific program to hear its local commands.

Custom Commands

Custom commands differ from Global commands in their purpose. You train a custom speech command to fine tune your voice inflections so that the Joyride™ system recognizes your voice. You can also train a custom command to substitute another word for a global command. See Chapter 8 Using Setup, “Setting Custom Command Options.”
