THEMA:

As discussed here in the forum it could be a nice feature, if the users can add more Timer-JSON files in the config folder.
At the moment we have only 4 types: No signaling, beep 1 and 2 and voice.
For F3K or F3J training some more timers could be helpful, maybe with some custom WAV files.



Thanks.

This is my first post on this forum, so I feel compelled to begin by saying that my recently arrived DS-16 radio is the best thing I have had my hands on in a long-long time. It definitely meets all my needs, wants and desires very nicely and the comments that I will make are only intended to help make it even better.

Thank you Jeti for being so responsive to the RC modellers.

Now for my comment.

With a timer set for 10 minutes, the voice signals 5, 6, 7, 8 and 9 minutes and then counts down every 10 seconds to the end.

It would be nice to have other options such as:
- signal every minute till the last minute,
- signal every 30 seconds till the last minute, or (and I will admint that the following is perhaps a bit TOO MUCH to ask!!!)
- signal every minute during the first three minutes, every 30 seconds for the next six minutes and every 15 seconds for the final minute.

Perhaps even a combination of voice and beeps might be possible.

@Gudmund: You can modify the existing JSON files to cover your needs:

(but you can have only 4 timer types)

Thanks hkp-manuel.

That actually looks like something I can do.

I am assuming that I will be able to combine beeps and waves in the same .jsn file - or at least that is what I am going to try to do.

Wish me luck.

It works !!!

Just like khp-manuel suggested, I was able to modify the .jsn file to beep on the first, second, third, and fourth minute; voice announcements on the sixth to eight minute; beeps at 15, 30 and 45 seconds between the eighth and ninth minute; voice announcements at the nine minute mark and every ten seconds down to zero at the 10 minute mark.

I will probably modify this again - I just wanted to see if I could change it at all.

What a great radio!!!

+1 for the original poster's request. I have reconfigured TimerV.jsn to get exactly what I want and it works perfectly. It would be even better if you could use different .jsn files for various timers. Perhaps have the Report Type point directly to any .jsn file instead of Beep 1, Beep 2 and Voice.
