INSTALLATION
============
If you haven't made a BACKUP copy recently, do it now.
1) If you don't already have one, Make a "CNG" directory:
At C:\>, enter MD CNG, then CD\CNG
2) Copy BBCNG11.EXE to the CNG directory, C:\CNG>COPY A:*.*
(IF the file is a .ZIP type file, you will need PKUNZIP)
3) Enter BBCNG11, and the individual files will be extracted.
(look at the file name by entering DIR A: and you'll see that
two digits after CNG is the version #).
4) See Memory Issues section. To run the program enter CNG
<Enter> to answer set-up questions, and get to main menu. Any
errors will create a file called error.txt.
This file can be used by B&B Systems to resolve any errors.
MEMORY ISSUES
=============
1. Extended Memory CANNOT BE USED by FoxPro. Make as much
Expanded Memory available as possible. To make Extended Memory
act like Expanded, use a memory manager that provides the
standard LIM4.0 interface. If you have an older memory manager
prior to LIM4.0, and your system behaves strangely, add EMS64=OFF
to your config.fp file to avoiding using the first 64K of
expanded. (If you have enough expanded memory, and would like
more performance, get the Extended version from B&B systems.)
2. If using QEMM, 386MAX, or DOS5.0's EMM386, make sure these
B&B CNG-CALC User's Guide 2
managers define memory as Expanded. (ie. if using DOS5.0's
DEVICE=EMM386.SYS in your config.sys, don't included NOEMS which
avoids Expanded Memory, but instead include the number of
kilobytes of Expanded, such as 3072).
REQUIRED FOXPRO FILES
=====================
You need the FoxPro runtime files in order to run CNG-CALC. These
files are called FOXPRO.ESO and FOXPRO.ESL. For Full use of
Extended Memory (386 machines and greater), replace these two
files with FOXPROX.ESL. These "runtime" files are free and
available on B&B's Bulletin Board (see data number above if you
have a modem and would like to download these files). You need
these files in order for CNG.EXE to execute properly. YOU SHOULD
ALSO HAVE A MINIMUM OF 2M of RAM, and at least 2 Megabytes of
hard drive storage.
DEMO
====
If you are using a DEMO version, you will be limited to using the
CNG-CALC until August, 1993, or 50 times, whichever comes
first. Registration allows unlimited use for one year.
FEEL FREE TO DISTRIBUTE COPIES OF THIS DEMO.
NETWORKS
========
Remember, depending on your network configuration, you may need
to "ASSIGN" Read-Only status to any CNG executable type files,
ie. CNG.EXE, FOXPROL.ESO, FOXPROL.ESL.
GENERAL
=======
The menu options normally appear in the middle of your screen.
Sometimes, menu options will appear across the top of the screen.
Pressing the ALTERNATE key <ALT> will highlight the first option,
and you can use your arrow key to move to different options.
When maintaining some files, you will see the Browse option at
the top of the screen. Highlighting and <Entering> on this
option will give you an ability to add, and mark records for
deletion.

FINANCIAL ANALYSIS
==================
Filling-in the questions
- Customer name is name of potential user of CNG system
- Current Fuel, choose customer's current fuel - upon selecting a
fuel type, the number of btu's per gallon from the fuel data base
is saved. When you enter the number of gallons of "current fuel"
usage, the future fuel use in therms will be "filled-in" for you
based on those two values. You can still change the future therm
usage.
- Vehicle Conversion (# vehicles to be converted/conversion cost
per vehicle). You can include 2 types of conversion vehicles (eg.
10 cars, 2 trucks)
- Refueling Station (# vehicles to be converted/conversion cost
per vehicle). You can include two types of stations (eg. 2
w/three pumps, 1 w/ten pumps)
- Usage information
- Current fuel use in total (all vehicles) annual gallons
- Current fuel cost per gallon
- Future fuel use in total (all vehicles) annual therms
- Current local natural gas cost per therm
- Include your forecast of the Annual inflation rates for
each fuel. If you expect gasoline prices to rise faster, enter
a higher number than the inflation rate for natural gas.
- Add optional Estimated operating and maintenance expenses (for
refueling stations and vehicles) that you expect under the new
fueling system.
- Financing
- If you plan on financing any of the costs, include:Annual
Interest Rate, Financing period in months (10 years=120 months),
and % of the total investment you are going to finance.
- Taxes
- Income tax rate, used to determine pre-tax and after-tax cash
flow
- Include any additional tax incentive provided by local tax laws
to encourage natural gas use. (ie. Investment Tax Credit?).
This % will be added to the Income tax rate in calculating tax
flow (But plans include using this amount as a simple deduction,
depending on the outcome of regulations, and local needs).
- Project the financial benefits how many years into the future?
- Select a depreciation schedule file. Included with your
CNG-CALC system are three files (DEPRONE, DEPRTWO and DEPRTHR)
containing the percentage of depreciation to deduct in each of
the first 5,10 or 20 years, with separate percentages in each
year for VEHICLES and REFUELING STATIONS.

CHANGING DEPRECIATION SCHEDULES
-------------------------------
The depreciation files supplied with your system are called
DEPRONE, DEPRTWO and DEPRTHR. They are all the same, except you
can modify them to include different yearly depreciation
percentages, in each one, to apply to investments in EQUIPMENT
and VEHICLES. Each file has a record for the current year, plus
future years. Normally, depreciation starts in the first full
year and values in the record "CURRENTYR" are ignored.
IMPORTANT !
===========
DEPRECIATION SCHEDULES MAY REQUIRE CHANGING TO REFLECT CURRENT
TAX LAW! CHANGES IN TAX AND ENVIRONMENTAL REGULATIONS MAY AFFECT
THESE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS. THESE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS WERE
DEVELOPED AS A GUIDE TO THE GENERAL FINANCIAL IMPLICATIONS OF AN
INVESTMENT IN ALTERNATIVE FUEL SYSTEMS.
B&B SYSTEMS MAKES NO WARRANTY AS TO THE VALIDITY OF THESE

ANY FINANCIAL CLAIMS MADE ON THE BASIS OF THESE FINANCIAL
STATEMENTS.
SAVING ANALYSIS
===============
After printing your analysis, you will be asked if you want to
save it. If you answer yes, you will have an opportunity to save
B&B CNG-CALC User's Guide 6
it using the name of the customer, or any other name you select.
RECALL PRIOR ANALYSIS
=====================
When you first enter the Financial Analysis module, press the
<ALT> key to highlight the "recall" option, and you will see a
list of previously saved Financial Analysis files. Highlight
one, and press <Enter> and the values for the previously saved
Analysis will be retrieved.

-----------------------------------------------------------------
TO DETERMINE the CUBIC FEET OF Compressed Natural Gas pumped into
a particular size cylinder, see the amount in the correct ROW
(Beginning pressure) and COLUMN (Ending pressure).
To print a Volume/Pressure chart, you will need to enter the
ambient temperature desired, and if multiple charts are desired
for multiple temperatures, enter an ending temperature.
You will also be given the opportunity to print multiple charts
in temperature increments other than the default of every 5
degrees.
Next, you need to enter the size of the CNG Cylinder in water
volume and in cubic inches.
B&B CNG-CALC User's Guide 7
You will then be asked if you want to proceed. If yes, then be
patient, the calculations will be made and all charts will print
when they are all done being prepared.
If the tables do not appear to be printing properly (ie., extra
line on one page, sections split on pages, etc.) make sure that
you have not changed the printer codes in the printer file that
control 6 lines per inch (vertical) and compressed/condensed font
(16.66 characters horizontally). The default of 59 lines per
page is dependent on the 6 lines per inch.
You may want to experiment by selecting a diffeent printer with
similar print codes.
The charts do take into consideration supercompressibility.
PRESSURE/VOLUME CHART OPTIONS
=============================
Normally, the fill amounts are in cubic feet of natural gas.
But with version 1.1, you can have the fill amounts shown in
equivalent gallons of gasoline, diesel, propane, or any other
fuels in the fuel file. The calculations involve converting the
natural gas amount into BTU's using the assumed default of 100
cubic feet equals 1 therm. But you can change this default of
100cf in one therm in the Calculations section. It also uses the
number of BTU's per gallon from the fuels file for the fuel
selected. You can change this amount in the fuel file
maintenance.
QUICK VOLUME\PRESSURE
=====================
Use this module to IMMEDIATELY determine the fill amount of CNG
for a vehicle's specific cylinder size and beginning/ending
pressures. You will also be given the option of producing the
fill amount in cubic feet of natural gas, or the equivalent
gallons of any type of fuel (See the Volume/Pressure Chart
section for information on how equivalent gallons are computed.
B&B CNG-CALC User's Guide 8
PRINTER CONTROL
===============
You have control over your printer functions in several different
ways.
PRIOR TO PRINTING
=================
First of all, prior to all print jobs you will have the option of
sending your print job to the printer designated as the DEFAULT
printer (Default code='Y' in p_codes file), or of SELECTING a new
printer device (1. disk file, a 2. specific printer port (ie.
LPT1, LPT2, COM1, etc.), 3. from the list of other "SELECTED"
printers (SELECTED='Y' in p_codes file) or,4. You can opt to add
another printer to the list of selected printers.
MAINTENANCE
===========
When selecting the printer maintenance function, you can:
ADD TO SELECTED PRINTERS or,
EDIT PRINTER CODES or,
SEND CODES TO PRINTER
ADD TO SELECTED PRINTERS
========================
You will see a list of available printers, You can also ADD one
of your own or EDIT one you will not use. NOTE: when new print
code files are distributed (p_codes.dbf) by FoxPro or B&B
Systems, it can overwrite your p_codes file.
You will be able to enter a 'Y' to select ONE default printer.
Or, you can enter 'Y' in the select field to have them listed in
the select printer options list.
EDIT PRINTER CODES
==================
If you want to edit the actual printer codes, you can do that in
this mode. When you want to edit the code that controls, say,
compressed/condensed printing, edit the compressed code by
entering the decimal codes for your printer (see your printer
manual). Enter these decimal codes in this format: CHR(<decimal
code>) and the code will be converted for you.
SEND CODES TO PRINTER
B&B CNG-CALC User's Guide 9
=====================
This option will send the codes to your printer.
CUSTOMIZATION
=============
B&B Systems are specialists in Compressed Natural Gas technology
systems. We offer customization services such as loading your
list of vehicles into the vehicle data base file, adding custom
modules, changing the existing system, or attaching an accounting
system, such as billing/usage capability.
UPDATES
=======
When updates become available, registered owners are eligible to
download all updates on B&B's BBS free of charge.
FILES
=====
CNG-CALC is based on the FOXPRO Relational Data Base. If you
wish to make changes to data files, you can access various files
from the box, or top screen menus, or you can use FOXPRO (version
2.0) to make those changes. But be careful, all changes to data
SHOULD be made within B&B's CNG CALC.
FOXPRO.ESO, .ESL, and FOXR are the FoxPro2 runtime files
CNG.EXE is your B&B CNG-CALC System.
P_CODES.DBF, .CDX are the files containing printer control codes
DEPRONE/TWO/THR.DBF files are depreciation schedules.
Each record is a year (CURRENT, 1STYR, 2NDYR, ETC.) and
each record contains two fields containing the percentage
to depreciate both vehicles or compressor stations each year.
You can add records to extend depreciation past for any number
of years,
but commonly you would just edit the records in DEPRTWO
to hold the depreciation percentages desired. DEPRTHR can
hold a different set of percentages.
FUEL.DBF contains records for Gasoline, Propane, etc. and the
default BTU's per gallon, and COST per gallon to be used in
the financial analysis.
VEHICLE.DBF contains a record for each vehicle number in your
fleet, the CNG cylinder size in cubic inches of water volume.
A field for accumulated cubic feet is also included. When you
B&B CNG-CALC User's Guide 10
produce a "Quick Volume" calculation, you can elect to add the
calculated cubic feet to this field. When you enter the
vehicle number in "Quick Volume", the cylinder size from the
vehicle record is also used in the calculation.
HELPFILE.DBF - help information
CONFIG.FP is FoxPro's configuration file. If you have a Foxpro
manual, refer to it for customization features.
FINANCIA.DBF - Temporary holding place for financial analysis.

CHANGES
=======
Version 1.1 12-30-92
- Added capability to produce Pressure/Volume charts with
equivalent gallons of gasoline, propane or diesel instead of
cubic feet of natural gas.
- All volumes of cylinders are now in cubic inches of water
volume.
- the VEHICLE.DBF file structure was changed to use water volume
of a vehicle in cubic inches, not cubic feet. Use file dated
after 1-1-93.
- CNG CALC was changed to allow financing and yearly projections
in time periods that varied from 1 year and up.
