A good user manual
The rules should oblige the seller to give the purchaser an operating instrucion of Pelco DX4800, along with an item. The lack of an instruction or false information given to customer shall constitute grounds to apply for a complaint because of nonconformity of goods with the contract. In accordance with the law, a customer can receive an instruction in non-paper form; lately graphic and electronic forms of the manuals, as well as instructional videos have been majorly used. A necessary precondition for this is the unmistakable, legible character of an instruction.
What is an instruction?
The term originates from the Latin word „instructio”, which means organizing. Therefore, in an instruction of Pelco DX4800 one could find a process description. An instruction's purpose is to teach, to ease the start-up and an item's use or performance of certain activities. An instruction is a compilation of information about an item/a service, it is a clue.
Unfortunately, only a few customers devote their time to read an instruction of Pelco DX4800. A good user manual introduces us to a number of additional functionalities of the purchased item, and also helps us to avoid the formation of most of the defects.
What should a perfect user manual contain?
First and foremost, an user manual of Pelco DX4800 should contain:
- informations concerning technical data of Pelco DX4800
- name of the manufacturer and a year of construction of the Pelco DX4800 item
- rules of operation, control and maintenance of the Pelco DX4800 item
- safety signs and mark certificates which confirm compatibility with appropriate standards
Why don't we read the manuals?
Usually it results from the lack of time and certainty about functionalities of purchased items. Unfortunately, networking and start-up of Pelco DX4800 alone are not enough. An instruction contains a number of clues concerning respective functionalities, safety rules, maintenance methods (what means should be used), eventual defects of Pelco DX4800, and methods of problem resolution. Eventually, when one still can't find the answer to his problems, he will be directed to the Pelco service. Lately animated manuals and instructional videos are quite popular among customers. These kinds of user manuals are effective; they assure that a customer will familiarize himself with the whole material, and won't skip complicated, technical information of Pelco DX4800.
Why one should read the manuals?
It is mostly in the manuals where we will find the details concerning construction and possibility of the Pelco DX4800 item, and its use of respective accessory, as well as information concerning all the functions and facilities.
After a successful purchase of an item one should find a moment and get to know with every part of an instruction. Currently the manuals are carefully prearranged and translated, so they could be fully understood by its users. The manuals will serve as an informational aid.

Let’ s touch the IP side. No doubt there are plenty of hy brid on the market. T oday most of those systems do either or both of two things: 1) they support 8 or 16 SD cameras 2) they reduce the number of analog cameras by the number of IP cameras supported. In the future we can look forward to additional HD camera support - today we support a sub[...]

And just another reminder – it is the DX4800 that gives us 480/400 IPS at 4CIF , with the DX4700 performance in line with what we’ve provided with DX4600 and DX8100. Like the DX8100 there is one A/D chip to support a group of 4 cameras, and this provides 120 IPS for a group of 4. The UI limits that se lection, only in the DX4700 – it’ s not[...]
