Deluxe Fone-Code Hacker
|
||
Documentation
|
||
|
||
Congratulations, you now own the best Fone-Code Hacker
|
||
around. I have pulled ideas from several sources as well as
|
||
plenty of my own to devise this code scanner, most notably:
|
||
Peter King for the Carrier Detect variable formula,
|
||
Floppy Disk for part of the random selection sequence.
|
||
|
||
This program is in general release as of 6/12/85,
|
||
versions prior to 4.0, were for friends etc for testing
|
||
purposes. As of version 4.1 there are no known bugs, however
|
||
should you find one, I would appreciate feedback so that I
|
||
can correct them.
|
||
|
||
In the program itself, you will find 4 screens of help
|
||
and info, but this is to fill in the blanks that I had no
|
||
room to cover.
|
||
|
||
Basically if you are confused about the three modes, here
|
||
is a quick rundown:
|
||
|
||
SEQENTIAL will start at a code you define like 205100 and try
|
||
every code to the ending try that you define like 206700.
|
||
You can set it to try every code in that range or every other
|
||
or every 3rd etc.
|
||
|
||
RANDOM will pick random numbers of the length that you
|
||
define, length of 5. or 6 or 8 etc. In this mode, you can
|
||
set the first digit to use. If you were to set the first
|
||
digit to 8 then all codes tried would start with 8 as in:
|
||
801245,836501 or to 43 as in 436735,431072. If you set the
|
||
first digit to a 2 digit number as in 43 above, when asked
|
||
for the length of the code, it is still 6....the program will
|
||
recognize that you really are setting the first 2 digits.
|
||
|
||
SYSTEMATIC is quite esoteric,yet helpful and is almost 2 scanners
|
||
in one. I have found it helpful quite often in scanning for a
|
||
group of numbers clustered "under" a specific first digit, or to
|
||
determine the actual code length.
|
||
|
||
Scanning First Digit: Here, you set a number of tries and a first
|
||
digit range as in 100 tries on digits 2 - 7. What happens is that
|
||
the dialer will try 100 random tries as 2xxxxx, then 100 tries as
|
||
3xxxxx and 100 tries as 4xxxxx etc...Note that the 100 tries
|
||
becomes 600 tries!!!!
|
||
Scanning for Code Length: In this fashion, you will set the code
|
||
length range to scan as in 4 - 7, which says that you want to scan
|
||
a set of 4, 5, 6 and 7 digit codes (as in 2386,45391,587420 and
|
||
4756312 respectively). Next, the scanner will apply 50 or 100 or
|
||
whatever you specify as number of tries to each code length (100 4
|
||
digit tries then 100 5 digit tries etc). Since the object is to
|
||
determine the actual code length, the scanning will terminate
|
||
after 3 codes are found (just enough to find and verify the
|
||
length).
|
||
|
||
Note that since the number of tries is applied to EACH integer in
|
||
the range, the Code Length scanning would be prepared to actually
|
||
run 400 codes thru the Service Access Number.
|
||
|
||
The program should run on any variety of modems as long
|
||
as they are 100% Hayes compatible as I utilize several AT
|
||
commands. The timer is quite accurate and the scanning
|
||
results are accurate. If you turn off the speaker, it remains
|
||
off until the end of the program, that is, if you break the
|
||
program, the Y/N modem speaker is not a toggle. This is
|
||
doubly true with internal, board level modems. On these, if
|
||
you break (Ctrl-C, Ctrl-Brk) the program, the modem speaker
|
||
will remain off until you send the modem a ATZ. Otherwise
|
||
the program will do this for you.
|
||
|
||
The other thing is that if the screen gets filled with codes
|
||
(about 50), and they are cleared to make room for more, there is
|
||
no sequence to reprint them as yet. They are therefore lost
|
||
unless the disk save or printer is on. They ARE in memeory
|
||
(dimension of 250) but there is no recall to screen yet. You
|
||
should have such problems.
|
||
|
||
The scanner could also be used to find 800 extenders by
|
||
keying 1800 as the access number, and setting the code length to
|
||
7. You would have to listen for probable tones, but it could
|
||
be done. This would scan 1800xxxxxxx but could not record a
|
||
carrier since there is no target modem.
|
||
|
||
By the by, the Sequential mode is great for testing. Set the
|
||
Access number, then set the first code to try as 1 before a known
|
||
code, and end 1 after the known code. Running a known code thru
|
||
it will show you the screen,LOF, printer display and/or Disk file
|
||
headers.
|
||
|
||
Some helpful aspects of the dialer: 1) At the end of the
|
||
run, the clock will display the time that the the last code
|
||
was tried. This is neat if you let it run all by itself, you
|
||
can come back to determine how long a given number of codes
|
||
take. 2) You can set the dialer to stop after X number of
|
||
contacts. This is helpful if you really just want 5 codes
|
||
for the month, it will stop when it has that many rather than
|
||
dial the remaining tries that you had set. This can help
|
||
prevent having a Trouble Card dropped on you for making 4000
|
||
800 calls when the last 3000 were not really needed.

||
I do not yet know the program requirements, but this was
|
||
written on:
|
||
|
||
IBM-PC, 2 drives, 512k, DOS 2.0, BASICA
|
||
Hayes Modem, Touch tone dialing. It DOES utilize AT commands so
|
||
the modem must be Hayes compatible.
|
||
|
||
Compiled with the BASIC Compiler and converted into .COM with
|
||
SPACEMKR.COM (saves about 13% of the space).
