Settings screen of SRS

Contents

Global settings (WIP)

Auto Connect

  • When joining a DCS multiplayer server, allow SRS automatically connect to the SRS server provided by DCS server.

Auto Connect Prompt

  • Instead of automatically connecting, prompt the user to connect to the provided server (see Auto Connect).

Auto Connect Mismatch Prompt

Reset Radio Overlay

  • Reset radio overlay position and changes to defaults.

Hide Overlay Taskbar Item

  • Remove the overlay window from the windows taskbar (unifies overlay into the main SRS taskbar entry)

Auto Refocus DCS

  • Bring the DCS window back into focus, as the current application, after manipulating the radio overlay. Around a 2 second delay after moving the mouse off of the overlay.

Allow More Input Devices

  • Allow almost any DirectX device to be used as an input, except a mouse, but may cause issues with other device detection.

Microphone Automatic Gain Control

  • Allow SRS to manipulate microphone gain, to provide a more stable level of input.

Microphone Noise Supression

  • Allow SRS to dampen input noise from the microphone.

Minimize to tray

  • When minimized, minimize the SRS main window to the taskbar tray.

Start minimized

  • Start with main window minimized to the taskbar tray.

Auto Select Profile For Aircraft

  • Automatically switch to an SRS profile for any given aircraft, if an identically named profile exists; symbols and spaces excluded. For example, "av8b" would be automatically chosen when you select an AV-8B role. Must use full DCS scoreboard name.

Check for beta updates

  • Allow SRS to check for updates, including those in the beta branch.

Play connection sounds

  • Play sounds when connecting to an SRS server.

Set SRS Path for DCS

  • Choose the DCS install path to be used with SRS.

Require Admin

  • Run the application as Administrator. Required to intercept inputs mapped to both SRS and DCS, while still allowing DCS to process and use those inputs.

Allow VAICOM TX Inhibit (WIP)

Show Transmitter Name

  • Show the username of whoever is transmitting on the current frequencies, in the frequency windows on the overlays, as well as in the DCS in-game overlay (if enabled).

  • Requires server "Show transmitter name" setting to be enabled.

Allow Anonymous Usage Stats

  • Allow SRS to collect usage statistics.

Profile

Where the current profile is selected, deleted, renamed, or cloned, as well as where new profiles are created.

Profile settings (WIP)

Controls/Cockpit Integration (WIP)

Radio Switch works as Push-To-Talk (PTT)

  • Determine whether the "Radio 1", "Radio 2", etc. button will select that particular radio, or select and transmit on that radio. Practically, this determines whether a separate PTT button is required (for radios with a button bound).

Auto Select First Channel Preset

ALWAYS allow SRS Hotkeys

ALWAYS allow Transponder Overlay Controls

  • Determine whether the frequency control buttons always display on the radio overlay, or whether they only display when the current aircraft lacks radio controls.

Allow INCOCKPIT DCS Controlled PTT

  • Determine whether (certain) DCS aircraft can control the SRS PTT with the in-game radio key transmit/selection bindings.

Rotarty Style Frequency Increment/Decrement

  • When adjusting frequency with SRS hotkeys, allow values to roll over rather than increment.
  • Default behaviour: 123.900 --> 124.000 Rotary Behaviour: 123.900 --> 123.000

Push-to-Talk Release Delay (ms) - SRS Hotkeys only

  • Delay the end of transmission after the PTT key is released.

Push-to-Talk Start Delay (ms) - SRS Hotkeys only

  • Delay the start of transmission after the PTT key is pressed.

Radio Effect Settings

Radio Rx Effects

  • Determines which of the "Start" and "End" transmission effects SRS will play when starting and ending a received transmission. Affects encryption and MIDS effects.

Radio Tx Effects

  • Determines which of the "Start" and "End" transmission effects SRS will play when pressing and releasing the PTT button, respectively. Affects encryption and MIDS effects.

Radio Transmit Start Effect

Radio Transmit End Effect

Radio Encryption Effects

  • Play additional sounds when transmitting or receiving encrypted communications.

MIDS Tx & Rx effects

  • Play additional sounds when transmitting or receiving MIDS communications.

Enable Radio Voice Effect

  • Determines whether or not SRS will filter voices to sound like they do on actual radios.

Enable Clipping Effect

  • Determines whether SRS will apply the clipping effect to loud transmissions.

Enable FM Radio Tone

  • Determines whether SRS will play an additional tone when using FM radios.
  • Slider allows for volume adjustment of this tone.

Enable HAVEQUICK Effect

  • Determines whether SRS will apply an additional effect to radios using HAVE QUICK (HQ) mode.

Enable Background Radio Effects (UHF/VHF/HF/FM)

  • Determines whether SRS will add background noise to radio transmissions.
  • Sliders allow for volume adjustment on each of the 4 radio types.

Audio

Sliders controlling which audio channel(s) a particular radio is played on (left or right), and the degree to which it is played on those channels (volume on each).
