C/I Analysis Tool - Manually Installing the Template

The C/I Interference Analysis Tool master template is a file named 'C-I Interference Analysis Tool.xlt' which is placed in your MS Office templates folder during the Sat-Coord install process.

This folder is normally:

C:\os\Profiles\user_name\Application Data\Microsoft\Templates

where os is the operating system folder — for example, Windows, and user_name is the name under which you logged onto your operating system.

or: 

C:\Documents and Settings\user_name\Application Data\Microsoft\Templates

In the event that the Sat-Coord install has not been able to save the template correctly (e.g. because your Windows and/or Excel are not installed into the standard folders) you may not see the C/I Tool template when trying to create a new analysis. 

In this case you can create the template manually using the following procedure:

• Open the master C/I spreadsheet file 'C-I Interference Analysis Tool.xls' located in the C-I subdirectory found in the Sat-Coord directory (this is by default C:/Program Files/Sat-Coord/C-I/).

• Use the File... Save As... menu option to save the file as a "template" rather than as a normal Excel worksheet:

• Excel will automatically select the correct folder in which to save the template, so simply accept the save location offered by Excel and click on "Save".

• Now the template is saved in the correct place and it is possible to create a new C/I Analysis spreadsheet as described here.

What if the Master C/I Analysis Spreadsheet is Deleted, Corrupted or Overwritten?

In the unlikely event that the master C/I spreadsheet file 'C-I Interference Analysis Tool.xls' located in the C-I subdirectory found in the Sat-Coord directory (this is by default C:/Program Files/Sat-Coord/C-I/) becomes deleted, corrupted or overwritten it can be replaced by one of the following methods:

• If you have a Sat-Coord install CD you will find the master C/I spreadsheet file 'C-I Interference Analysis Tool.xls' located in the C-I subdirectory from the root folder of the CD-ROM; copy this file to the C-I subdirectory found in the Sat-Coord directory (this is by default C:/Program Files/Sat-Coord/C-I/).
• If you don't have a Sat-Coord install CD you may download the C/I master spreadsheet file from www.sat-coord.com/download/; copy this file to the C-I subdirectory found in the Sat-Coord directory (this is by default C:/Program Files/Sat-Coord/C-I/).

Even if you have the CD it is recommended to check the website download area in order to be sure that you are installing the most up-to-date version of the C/I Analysis tool.
