3. Functions:
- Reports time:
(1)Reports time hourly:
It is need to set one or more tasks to
define one or more time span of reporting hourly. Select
Menu and then Schedule
item to enter Schedule screen. In the Schedule screen, select task number
and task Type--Chime Clock. Then, set begin
time and end time. Note: In setting time box, the minute is neglected, only
is hour value available. For instance: 5:20 - 22:30 means to report time
hourly from 5:00 to 22:00, include 5:00 and 22:00. There also are
correlative options in Chime Clock task
settings,
listed as below:
-
means Volume. There are seven items to set volume:
- =Earpiece volume means that the
volume of Chime Clock is the same of earpiece volume which is
adjusted by Volume Up and Volume Down buttons.
- Fixed 1 - Fixed 5 means that the volume is fixed at a value no matter
what is earpiece volume and profiles.
- =Profiles sound volume (only for
Smartphone/Standard device) means that
the volume is determined by a profile. For example, if it is silent
mode at 10 o'clock, then it would not chime clock at that time. Another example, if it is normal mode
with volume 3 at 15 o'clock, then it will chime clock at the volume 3 of
normal mode sound at that time.
- Voice, otherwise bell-----If
checked, reports time with voice, otherwise sound of strike bell.
- Mute during flight mode-----If
checked, disabled reporting time hourly at o'clock when phone is in flight
mode.
- Prelude-----The sound
before reporting time. Both Music.wav and
dududu.wav in the sounds list are prepared to serve as prelude. The
Null.wav is a mute wav file, serve as to disable prelude sound. It also
can be introduced by saving prepared wav file into specified folders (see
Sets
alarms).

(2)Reports time
immediately: To fire reporting time immediately, double clicks the hotkey which you have defined in
Options screen, no matter
what status of phone is, silent or meeting mode, locked key or phone.
Note:
The interval between two clicking hotkey must be
less than one second, otherwise the two clicking would serve as its
orignal key function.
<Return

(3)Build Speaking time format file: It is a text file, named
TimeFormat.ini, located in "..\Program Files\AutoFlight\", composed line
by line following the rules as below listed:
-
The first line and all odd lines are voices
sequence lines. The second line and all even lines are condition lines
to be compared to determinate if their previous line, a voices sequence,
may be performed.
Example:
!TheTimeIs.wav,H,!Oclock.wav
M = 0 & [ H < 20 | ( H % 10 ) = 0 ]
!TheTimeIs.wav,( H / 10 * 10 ),( H % 10 )!Oclock.wav
M = 0
-
A voices sequence line is composed by file
names of voice waves, H, f( H ), M, or f( M ) according to a sequence
you want, separated by comma (Space character is not allowed).
Example 1: !TheTimeIs.wav,H,!Oclock.wav
Example 2: !TheTimeIs.wav,H,( M / 10 * 10 ),( M % 10 )
Note:
-
A file name must be leaded "!", e.g. "!ENowTime.wav".
-
H is represented current hour numbers.
It will be replaced with a name of voicing number wave file by
program automatically depending on current hour number, e.g.
"8.wav".
-
M is represented current minute
numbers. It will be replaced with a name of voicing number wave file
by program automatically depending on current minute number. e.g.
"50.wav".
-
Here f( H ) and f( M
) are represented formulas to get a number to voice. You have to
replace it with a formula in the line.
Example 1: ( M / 10 * 10 )
Example 2: ( M % 10 )
-
A formula must be bracketed by "( "
and " )". Note: there is a space character.
-
Only be H, M and constant number
allowed for operands.
-
Only be +, -, *, / and %( modulus )
allowed for operators.
-
All operands and operators are
seperated by a space character between each other.
-
All wave files must be located in
folder of "..\Program Files\AutoFlight\Sound\"
-
All number voice waves must be named as
number+".wav", if you want it will be represented by H or M, such as
0.wav, 1.wav, ..., 50.wav and so on.
-
A condition line is composed by one or
multiple comparison expressions, each other connected with logic
operators "&"( AND ) or "|"( OR ).
Example 1: M = 0 & [ H < 20 | ( H % 10 ) = 0 ]
Example 2: M = 0
Note:
-
Only be "=", "<" and ">" allowed as
comparison expression's operators.
-
Only be H, M, f( H ),
f( M ) and constant number allowed as comparison
expression's operands.
-
There is only one level "[ " and " ]"
brackets allowed to use to change priority of logical combining
among comparison expressions. Note: there is a space character along
with brackets.
-
There is a space character between
comparison expression and logic operator.
-
The program matches conditions one by one
from second line (that is the first condition line) to the last line
until one successful. So, in fact, the last voices sequence line is
unconditioned, that is say the last condition line must be canceled. It
is replaced with "#" to announce the end of lines.
