Welcome to Slick Intermod Detector V2.6, This Intermod Detector is
designed to run on any IBM/Clone PC/MS-DOS PC using V2.01 or later DOS.
Although IMOD will run on any type clone, it is suggested to use a PC with
a 10 mhz or better clock speed with math-coprocessor for faster processing.
Of course the higher the CPU clock speed, the better the results will be in
terms of fast calculations and results.
INTERMOD DETECTOR is an easy use computer aided numerical
analyzer tool for the Radio Communications System designer
or user. Transmitter and receiver frequencies for a
specific site are entered into the program and INTERMOD
DETECTOR computes and displays the performance
characteristics of the receivers under test related to the
development of intermodulation as a function of the
transmitters at the site. INTERMOD DETECTOR is an entirely
menu driven spreadsheet like program which displays the
offending transmitters as well as the offended receiver. A
communications site, once established, may be saved to a
disk file, and old sites may be recalled from the disk. Once
a site has been loaded from the disk or from the keyboard,
it may be modified at will in order to determine the
system's performance with varying transmitter and, or
receiver frequency values. The files generated INTERMOD
DETECTOR are standard ASCII text files, and may be easily
written or changed using most editors and word processors.
INTERMOD DETECTOR computes results from using all
combinations of the transmitters at the site including up
the 9th order products and compares the results to the
listed receiver frequencies. The general form of testing is:
A+B+C, A+B C, A+B, and A INTERMOD DETECTOR is written in
power basic and compiled into an executable run file
requiring no additional software other than DOS. The Power
Basic source code is available separately and if you
purchase the source code, INTERMOD DETECTOR may be easily
tailored to your specific technical requirements.
******************
You are hereby granted a limited license to use this software on
a trial basic for 5 days. After this evaluation period, if you
decide to continue using this product, you are required by law
to register the program with the authors.
******************
The registered version is capable of testing triplet transmitters
up to the ninth harmonic order with setable receiver passbands
and unlimited receiver/transmitter frequencys in the site files.
To get your registered copy with advanced powerful features send
a check or money order for $295.00 to Simple Software Company,
P.O.Box 8184, New Orleans, La. 70182. You will receive the latest
version with printed documentation and a certificate for one future
upgrade at 50% off.

Before you can begin using IMOD you will need to build frequency
files for your various repeater Sites, etc. You will need to create TWO
files and, for clarity, both should have the same file (site) name. Example,
let's assume one of your accounts is the Majesty Building. Enter "MAJESTY"
as a site file name for both transmit and receive frequencies. The only
limitation is keeping the name to within the DOS requirements of no more
than (8) eight characters. See Selection #2 (N)ew, below.

The above menu is displayed as a result of choosing option 1, 2 or 3 from
the main menu. This menu selects the appropriate site frequency lists.
The cursor keys move the highlight bar from file to file and the Enter Key
is used to pick that highlighted selection. If you had not previously entered
site locations, no matter whether you asked for Receivers or Transmitters,
the menu will automatically switch to the opposite choice. I.E., if you
started by choosing (R)ecivers, once the pick is made, the menu will, by
default, switch to transmitters.

You will note that as you add frequencies to the site file and (S)ave
them, they will be listed in the upper left corner of the screen to aid
in remembering what you have entered up to the moment. After entering
your last frequency, hit the Enter key on a blank line to escape.

SELECTION #3: Run Intermod Test
If the option from the main menu was 3 and you finished the site selection,
you will next be shone the following screen indicating the freq's contained
in both selected files.

Next, you will be offered a last minute option of adding additional
frequencies to either column or saying "No" and continuing on......
Do you want to test Additional transmit Freq's (Y/N) -->n
Do you want to test Additional receive Freq's (Y/N) -->n
IMOD can be used to test up to the ninth (9th) order of harmonic
combinations. Normal use is 3 with 7 being the highest practical value.
The PassBand sets the upper and lower limit of the receivers bandpass.
Example: Assume a frequency of 100 mhz. and a passband of .025mhz. This
means any harmonic combination up to the order selected must fall between
99.075mhz and 100.025 in order to be considered a conflict for the 100mhz
receiver. Use of the enter key here will by default, set no passband (0).
Last, you are asked where you wish the output data to be piped. You have
the option of the local monitor screen, the line printer connected to
LPT1: (parallel port #1) or a ascii text file called CONFLICT.DAT
Test up to what Harmonic (1-9) -->7
Test within +- what PassBand (.0125=12.5Khz) ? .025
Send Results to (S)creen, (F)ile or (P)rinter? -->▓

Screen 2
A recap of the Sites and frequencies will be re-displayed along with
some statistical data on the mid right side. This data takes one cycle
of calculations to produce projections or estimates of remaining time,
total calculations necessary, calculations done to the minute and the
estimated completion in real clock time expressed in military hours
and minutes.

SELECTION #4: Setting Application Colors.
This is reasonably intuitive and results will depend on what graphic
color card is installed in your PC. The system comes up in monochrome
to begin with and when this function is selected, a color configure
file is created called COLORS.TXT, which stores the new colors that
you have selected. Should you wish to return to monochrome, it's
easier to just delete this file from the directory rather than to
fumble through the color selections looking for all the black and
white background - foreground settings.
SELECT the area you want to change with the Up/Down arrows
Use Grey PLUS to Change Letters
Use Grey MINUS to Change Backgrounds.
Hit the ESC key when you are finished.
