- In order to more quickly answer your questions, it is very important to
- accurately describe the part of the program in question, and what you
- did to get to that point. If a problem occurs that leaves visible evidence,
- a screen dump to the printer (if possible) will be of great importance.
- This can normally be done by pressing the Shift key and the PRT-SCR (or
- Print Screen) keys at the same time.
-

- writing or you should have this information handy when calling:

- OTHER INFORMATION NEEDED:

- Printout of directory(ies) that the program is loaded into and all sub-

-
- If the problem or question involves the printer, include:
- Printer Type. (make, model, etc.)
- How the printer is connected to the computer (serial,parallel).
- Screen print of the CONFIG PRINTER screen.
-
- If you desire assistance in setting up a printer to do certain things,
- a copy of the printer codes for your printer will be necessary. This is
- usually found in the printer's User Guide or Programming Manual.
-
-
- (Please, don't write and say something like, "I can't get my printer to work,
- what's wrong?" Folks, I'm pretty good at fixing problems and answering
- questions, but I need a bit more to go on than this!)
-
- If you have suggestions for improvement of the program, and/or you wish to
- have a customized version made for a special need you may have, please write.
-
- A NOTE ABOUT SATELLITES AND OBSERVERS IN THE SETUP OPTION:
- The satellite and observer data included with the program are included
- as examples only. They are not meant to be all inclusive and you will
- probably want to change some of them. The satellite data was fresh
- at the time it was packaged, but will need to be updated when you get
- the package. (It is sufficient to evaluate operation, however, but
- for accuracy, freshness is important).
-
- THE PURPOSE OF THIS PACKAGE IS NOT TO DISTRIBUTE SATELLITE AND OBSERVER
- DATA BUT TO DISTRIBUTE A PROGRAM THAT TRACKS SATELLITES.
- Thank you.
