Help me please

Can someone tell me how exactly to set this up? For example:

I ask what is the temperature? I have an event for this. I would like to have it speak the temperature to me but and include a random phrase in it. Such as:
1. the temp is 32 degrees.
2. it is 32 degrees.
3. 32 degrees.

etc. I have no clue on how to get BLspeech working

This seems more a function of BLRandom than BLSpeech. Blade did (this morning) put a link between BLSpeech's dictionary and BLRandom but that's a whole different thing.

I need more info before I can help much. Like where do you get the temperature from? How is the event structured?

Well, the temp data aside...i am just trying to get blspeech to work. I dont quite understand how to implement it.

I use it in it's most simple form. When I decided I needed a speech processor I already had events that would turn on speakers, my problem is sometimes the speech was halfway through what was being spoken before all the speakers were engaged. So I use the event processing of BLSPeech to hold back all speech for a couple of seconds. Specifically I use the BLSPeech Triggers of "HomeSeer Prior to Speaking" to hold back speech until the announcement speakers are connected and ready. I then use "HomeSeer Stops Speaking" to turn off those speakers when speaking has completed.

For me the big deal was BLSpeech's ability to hold back HS Speak until I was ready to broadcast it.

There are other more complicated ways using tags and what not in your scripts but I'm a simple guy and went for easy.

Here are a couple of events that I use, for an example. Prior to using BLSpeech I had every speaking event turn on appropriate speakers, speak, turn off speakers. Just this much has made it so much simpler.

Ok, i see. I am running on the trial of homeseer, seeing if it will meet my needs.
