OEM Navigation Voice Control - Video


grbspecb

Recommended Posts

Just installed the Voice Control Microphone and push switch to the OEM Navigation in my 07 Spec B.

 

I installed the Kenwood KNA-VC300. The microphone is located behind the windshield wiper stalk on the steering column so it is out of sight. The push button is located next to the SI Drive. I will get some pictures on the install of the switch and microphone.

 

Listed below is an apple quicktime movie from my phone, not the best quality but you will get the idea of the voice control. In another thread is the manual for the Kenwood 3200 which has all the commands.

After it was plugged in there was no way to select what the input voice type would be as the Kenwood manual states, I guess Subaru had that menu item removed under languages. I did go into diagnostic mode, and the microphone is receiving the voice properly, I just couldn't program it, although everything works.

So, all that you need to do to get voice recognition with the factory nav is a switch and a mic? And this is not standard?

 

It seems that with each passing day the lameness of SOA is amplified by their inexplicable behavior.

I bought the microphone from etronics.com. They are out of NYC and seemed to have the best price of around $55. Plus whatever I order from them arrives next day since I am in NJ.

 

 

The swtch and microphone have 1 plug on the end that plugs into the DVD unit under the driver seat. I then routed the push switch under the center console and out by the I-Drive. I did have the shift cover trim piece off at the time but it isnt necessary. The microphone I routed under the dash and out to the right side if the steering column. Both pieces hae double sided tape so I stuck the microphone right behind the wiper stalk in case I get a turbo guge the top of the steering column is free.

 

it is not difficult at all to install it just plugs in, turn the car off and on twice and it is ready to go.

 

 

I like the zoom commands and the ability to change the maps, have thr right map appear and disappear, as well as have POIs appear by saying the POI category or saying "I'm Hungry" to have all restaurant POIs appear.

 

The only thing is I wish it muted the radio when I hit the mic button. I usually hit the mute on the steering column first. If the radio isn't too loud it does work though.

 

 

Took 10 minutes to install. longer if you want to get creative with the mic placement.

 

Let me know if you want to know or see anything else about the voice control.

 

Now to see if TMC works.

The commands can be found in the KNA-3200 manual that is located in the

OEM hack thread. I've included them in the post.

 

Items in [square brackets] can be omitted. In addition, one of the items

shown separated by a forward-slash must be selected.

Any more installs done or updates on how you guys like the mic after using for a while?

 

Any pics of installs?

 

Does destination entry become possible now while driving?

 

Any advice on where to buy the mic cheap would be great too.

 

TIA,

Anthony

Wow! How did I not find this before! Seems the only place to find the mic now is Cardomain.com Store, and it's gone up a bit, but this is the one major wish I had about the nav system and now I'll have it soon! :)

Sure, will do.

 

I'm leaning towards installing the mic up at the top left corner of the headliner & the button right by the gear selector & my V1 remote audio unit, but we'll have to see how they work tested in those locations before I actually install them there...
