AI Spotter Controls

Manage iRacing’s AI spotter directly from your Stream Deck. Trigger reports, toggle announcements, or adjust spotter volume without leaving the track. This action is keypad-only, but the spotter volume is also available on a Stream Deck+ dial: the Audio Controls dial’s Spotter mode turns through these same Spotter Louder / Spotter Quieter bindings, and its press can be set to Skip Spotter Call.

Select the mode from the Mode dropdown in the Property Inspector.

Stop the spotter call that is playing right now. It is a one-shot: the spotter keeps talking on its next call. iRacing has no control that mutes the spotter permanently — to hear less of it, lower the volume with Spotter Quieter.

The key reads SKIP CALL / SPOTTER. It taps iRacing’s Spotter Silence key binding, which keeps that name in iRacing’s controls screen and in this action’s Related Key Bindings section.

  • Method: Key binding
