QUICK DIAGNOSIS

START WITH THE SIGNAL THAT FAILED.

01

AYRTON CAN'T HEAR ME

  • Confirm the selected microphone.
  • Make sure the microphone is available in Windows.
  • Check that Driver Instinct is active.
  • Say “Ayrton” clearly to open the radio.
02

I CAN HEAR HIM, BUT HE DOESN'T UNDERSTAND

  • Ask one question at a time.
  • Try a Handbook reference phrase.
  • If asked to repeat, repeat the question directly without saying “Ayrton” again.
03

I CAN'T HEAR AYRTON

  • Check the selected headphones or output device.
  • Confirm the device is still connected.
  • Review audio status in Driver Instinct.
05

AYRTON SAYS HE DOESN'T HAVE ENOUGH DATA YET

  • Drive for a few seconds and ask again.
  • Early in a race, there may not be enough reliable telemetry for an answer.

This can be correct behaviour: Driver Instinct should say it does not know yet rather than invent an answer.
