INSTALLATION AND START-UP OF MULTIPSK AND CLOCK

To install the programs on your hard disk,from the WINDOWS Explorer:

  1) Unzip the MULTIPSK.ZIP file to a temporary directory, for example
    "C:\TEMP".

  ATTENTION: don't unzip MULTIPSK.ZIP from the desktop. If you do this, you will have
  a lot of files on it (the desktop is a sort of directory)!

  2) From the temporary directory, not from MULTIPSK.ZIP, start the 
    INSTAL file:
    2.1) if you are installing the program for the first time, choose,
      for example, "C:\MULTIPSK". If you are updating a previuos version,
      use the actual directory name,
    2.2) double-click on "Installation" if it is an original installation,
      otherwise on "Updating".

For a simple update, only the new or modified files will be copied. 

IMPORTANT: as there is no change in the Windows registers base 
(and so no problem of desinstallation), the application files
can be installed manually (with Windows Explorer) in any directory.

Once the "Multipsk" group installed in the "Start" menu,  MULTIPSK will 
start automatically. 
The configuration screen opens first. 
You must click the RX/TX button to access the main screen.

It is more practical to start the program rather than with Explorer or with the 
Windows "Start" menu: you can create a shortcut on the desktop for MULTIPSK and 
another one for CLOCK.

To create a shorcut on the desktop, for "MULTIPSK": 
  * with Explorer, go to the directory where MULTIPSK has been installed, 
  * left click on the file name ("MULTIPSK"),
  * right click and then left click on "Create a shortcut",
  * fetch the shortcut "MULTIPSK" (icone with a little arrow) 
    and place it on the desktop.

The help file can be started from MULTIPSK, or by double-clicking on
"HELP_PSK.HLP". For help on CLOCK, click "HELP_CLO.HLP".

Note for the VISTA users:  
  To use the Multipsk help files, you need to download the WinHlp32.exe file. See at: 
  http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?displaylang=en&FamilyID=6ebcfad9-d3f5-4365-8070-334cd175d4bb

Note for the LINUX users (under WINE):  
  The DLLs are not recognized under Linux. Multipsk uses very few DLLs, and only for very auxiliary functions which are: 
    * the HB9TLK interface for SdR  receivers,
    * calculation of CPU load (button "CPU"),
    * option "DirectSound" for the pseudo-modes "Filters" and "Binaural".

QUICK PRESENTATION OF THE SOFTWARES
This software will run on a fast computer (PC at 166 MHz or more), under 
Windows, with a sound card (input) connected to the receiver output and
the sound card output to the transmitter input.

MULTIPSK codes (when transmitting) and decodes (when receiving) a number
of amateur radio digital modes, such as Morse, RTTY, SSTV, HF Fax, MFSK16,
BPSK31, Hellschreiber, Packet, Domino, Olivia etc.

CLOCK extracts date and time from FRANCE_INTER, DCF77, HBG and RUGBY, WWVB,
WWV-WWVH and from a GPS. It can synchronize your computer clock, if you have
the registred version.
