Intermodulation Analysis System (IAS)
Intermodulation Analysis System (IAS) by Professional Wireless Systems is a must-have for every RF engineer. IAS saves precious setup time by combining a database of wireless performance equipment and access to local television frequencies in use. This means an RF technician need only enter their current zip code and inventory the gear and frequencies in use. IAS will perform multiple calculations to find open frequencies that are free from overlapping analog and digital TV signals and intermodulation distortion. This saves tremendous time over traditional trial-and-error methods. Once a clean frequency is found in IAS, a simple pre-show equipment test will verify the software’s offline analysis.

Frequently Asked Questions
How do I change my name and company that is printed on the report?
- In version 5, the information printed on your report is associated with your license and is pre-populated with the information you used when registering the software. This can be changed with the following steps:
-
- Click on the IAS logo in the top left to show the application menu.
- At the bottom of the application menu, click the License link
- Make the desired changes to the editable text fields
- Click the Register buttons to save changes
- Note that the text fields may not be left blank or they will automatically repopulate with information from your license registration.
I experience a “No Association for File Extension” error message when printing.
On some systems, HTML files are not associated with any particular application and Windows does not know how to open them. Intermodulation Analysis System (IAS) renders reports out to a simple webpage that is compatible with all PCs and tablets. Autonomously opening the file, though, can sometimes be a problem. To fix this, follow these steps:
- Open the Windows Control Panel.
- In the search bar typeset your Default Programs and then open the associated entry in the Control Panel.
- Select Internet Explorer.
- Select Chose Defaults for this program and Check the Box for .html.
- Click Save.
