I. THE SUPER MORSE MANUAL
The Super Morse user manual is contained in the file, SM.DOC. The manual
can be printed out with the following command:
COPY SM.DOC PRN:
II. DATA FILE LOCATION
Versions prior to 1.04 required that all data files (those with HLP and SM
extensions) be placed in a special subdirectory named \SM. Since this proved
very confusing to many users, I have eliminated this requirement. If you
already have Super Morse installed with a \SM subdirectory, you should copy all
files with an SM and an HLP extension to the directory in which SM.EXE is
located. If you choose to leave SM.EXE in the \SM subdirectory, no changes
will be required. If you are installing Super Morse for the first time, you
can ignore the foregoing.
III. IF YOU ARE UPGRADING FROM A PREVIOUS VERSION
If you are having problems, try deleting the SM.CFG file with the
following command:
DEL SM.CFG
IV. SPEED CALIBRATION
Before you run Super Morse you should calibrate the code speed to suit the
clock speed for your computer and to account for any memory resident programs
which you have loaded. Each time you change the memory resident program
enviroment you will need to recalibrate code speed. When doing so use the
following procedure:
1. Select the <ALT-S> command at any menu.
2. Select the <B> (Auto Calibrate) command. This will automatically
provide an approximate calibration. For best results continue with the
following steps.
3. Select the <C> (Speed test) command.
4. Wait for Super Morse to send PARIS the number of time indicated by the
current send speed on the status line. Adjust the Timing factor in the manner
indicated using the <A> command.
6. Repeat steps 3-4 until the time required to send the the word PARIS is
just barely under 60 seconds.
On my Zenith Z-150 running at 4.77 MHz. and with no memory resident
programs installed, the timing factor is about 1270. With several memory
resident programs installed, the timing factor decreased to considerably less
