Codewheel Generator1.1.1

Software component protection methods greatly evolved throughout the years, with some early forms requiring you to write down specific words based on screen requirements, codes which were accessible in an attached manual. This method is referred to as a codewheel, and you can easily create one for general purpose with Codewheel Generator.

Can be used on the go

One of the application’s main advantages is that it doesn’t need to be installed in order to function, so you can easily store it on a thumb drive to carry around and use on other computers other than your own. This doesn’t have any impact on the stability of the target PC, mostly because registry entries are not altered during runtime.The window you work in isn’t fitted with any extraordinary visual elements to make it stand out from the crowd, but it’s pretty intuitive in its simplicity. There’s also a rich help manual you can turn to if you can’t really figure out how and why some values need to be handled in the way imposed by the application.

Set type of wheel and values

First of all, you need to select the wheel type to create, each coming with custom value specifications to define the end result. A single click is required for selection, with options for undecoded, undecoded with index track, two track quad, two track quad with index, absolute position gray code, and absolute position binary.Several constant values can be adjusted to represent the number of tracks, outer and inner diameter, pixels, and maximum size of the resulting image. Track data entry changes according to the selected type. A preview is generated at the press of a button, and there’s also the option to save the wheel as a BMP picture.

To end with

All things considered, we can state that Codewheel Generator is a nifty little tool with which you can generate different codewheel types. Adding values isn’t a great effort, since requirement fields automatically adapt to your selection, and you can save the codewheel picture when done.
