XPLORER.EXE

This DOS utility allows frequencies and hits captured by the Xplorer(tm)
to be downloaded to a PC.  The resulting output file is compatible with
the SPECTRUM for the SCOUT FCC Master Frequency Database by PerCon
Corporation.  It allows frequencies captured by the Xplorer(tm) to be
compared against FCC licenced commercial users in the United States by
city and state.  Results can then be exported to PROBE for computer-aided
scanning.

Note: Xplorer.EXE will only down load frequency and numbers of hits.  
In order to down load the entire Xplorer memory contents with all fields of 
data, extract and run the demo version of Radio Manager for Windows included
on this utility diskette.  If you purchase the Percon Corp. GEO_DB for the
Xplorer, additional download support is included in that program.  


The Xplorer(tm) INTERFACE must be set for CI-5 COMMAND from CONFIG mode.
Also, the BAUD RATE and CI-5 ADDRESS settings of the Xplorer(tm) must be
the same as those in XPLORER.EXE.


DOS USERS

On slower computers, data loss during the download may occurr at higher
data rates.  If this occurrs, try a lower data rate.  Remember to set
the data rate of the Xplorer(tm) to match that of the PC.


WINDOWS 3.X USERS

In general, XPLORER.EXE should run in a DOS window, as long as the selected
serial port is not already allocated by another program.  If so, unpredictable
results may occurr.  It is possible that data loss during the download may
occurr at higher data rates, especially on slower computers.  If this occurrs,
try a lower data rate.  Remember to set the data rate of the Xplorer(tm) to
match that of the PC.  Alternatively, exit Windows, and run XPLORER.EXE from
the DOS prompt.


WINDOWS 95 USERS

In general, XPLORER.EXE should run in a DOS window, as long as the selected
serial port is not already allocated by another program.  If so, unpredictable
results may occurr.  It is possible that data loss during the download may
occurr at higher data rates, especially on slower computers.  If this occurrs,
try a lower data rate.  Remember to set the data rate of the Xplorer(tm) to
match that of the PC.  Alternatively, selct "Shut Down" from the "Start" menu;
then select "Restart computer in MS-DOS mode", and run XPLORER.EXE from the
DOS prompt.
