Un bon manuel d’utilisation

Les règles imposent au revendeur l'obligation de fournir à l'acheteur, avec des marchandises, le manuel d’utilisation Black Box SW628A-R2. Le manque du manuel d’utilisation ou les informations incorrectes fournies au consommateur sont à la base d'une plainte pour non-conformité du dispositif avec le contrat.

La condition est son caractère lisible et compréhensible.

Qu'est ce que le manuel d’utilisation?

Le mot vient du latin "Instructio", à savoir organiser. Ainsi, le manuel d’utilisation Black Box SW628A-R2 décrit les étapes de la procédure. Le but du manuel d’utilisation est d’instruire, de faciliter le démarrage, l'utilisation de l'équipement ou l'exécution des actions spécifiques. Le manuel d’utilisation est une collection d'informations sur l'objet/service, une indice.

Malheureusement, peu d'utilisateurs prennent le temps de lire le manuel d’utilisation, et un bon manuel permet non seulement d’apprendre à connaître un certain nombre de fonctionnalités supplémentaires du dispositif acheté, mais aussi éviter la majorité des défaillances.

- informations sur les caractéristiques techniques du dispositif Black Box SW628A-R2
- nom du fabricant et année de fabrication Black Box SW628A-R2
- instructions d'utilisation, de réglage et d’entretien de l'équipement Black Box SW628A-R2
- signes de sécurité et attestations confirmant la conformité avec les normes pertinentes

Pourquoi nous ne lisons pas les manuels d’utilisation?

Habituellement, cela est dû au manque de temps et de certitude quant à la fonctionnalité spécifique de l'équipement acheté. Malheureusement, la connexion et le démarrage Black Box SW628A-R2 ne suffisent pas. Le manuel d’utilisation contient un certain nombre de lignes directrices concernant les fonctionnalités spécifiques, la sécurité, les méthodes d'entretien (même les moyens qui doivent être utilisés), les défauts possibles Black Box SW628A-R2 et les moyens de résoudre des problèmes communs lors de l'utilisation. Enfin, le manuel contient les coordonnées du service Black Box en l'absence de l'efficacité des solutions proposées. Actuellement, les manuels d’utilisation sous la forme d'animations intéressantes et de vidéos pédagogiques qui sont meilleurs que la brochure, sont très populaires. Ce type de manuel permet à l'utilisateur de voir toute la vidéo d'instruction sans sauter les spécifications et les descriptions techniques compliquées Black Box SW628A-R2, comme c’est le cas pour la version papier.

Pourquoi lire le manuel d’utilisation?

Tout d'abord, il contient la réponse sur la structure, les possibilités du dispositif Black Box SW628A-R2, l'utilisation de divers accessoires et une gamme d'informations pour profiter pleinement de toutes les fonctionnalités et commodités.

    11 CHAPTER 2: Introduction • If your application is not very demanding, the Switch can operate using only a portion of the attached computers’ keyboard power. For higher-level applications, an external power supply is included. • You can select the desired CPU from your keyboard or from the Switch’s front panel. • Front-panel LEDs show wh[...]

Installation 3.1 Rackmounting (Optional) If you want to mount the ServSwitch Jr. MP in a 19", 23", or 24" rack, you will need a ServSwitch Rackmounting Kit (our product code RMK19M, RMK23M, or RMK24M respectively). The Switch is pre-drilled to accept the Kit’s rackmounting screws. See Appendix C for mo[...]
