Un bon manuel d’utilisation

Les règles imposent au revendeur l'obligation de fournir à l'acheteur, avec des marchandises, le manuel d’utilisation Behringer CX3400. 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. Conformément à la loi, l’inclusion du manuel d’utilisation sous une forme autre que le papier est autorisée, ce qui est souvent utilisé récemment, en incluant la forme graphique ou électronique du manuel Behringer CX3400 ou les vidéos d'instruction pour les utilisateurs. 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 Behringer CX3400 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.

Donc, ce qui devrait contenir le manuel parfait?

Tout d'abord, le manuel d’utilisation Behringer CX3400 devrait contenir:
- informations sur les caractéristiques techniques du dispositif Behringer CX3400
- nom du fabricant et année de fabrication Behringer CX3400
- instructions d'utilisation, de réglage et d’entretien de l'équipement Behringer CX3400
- 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 Behringer CX3400 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 Behringer CX3400 et les moyens de résoudre des problèmes communs lors de l'utilisation. Enfin, le manuel contient les coordonnées du service Behringer 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 Behringer CX3400, 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 Behringer CX3400, l'utilisation de divers accessoires et une gamme d'informations pour profiter pleinement de toutes les fonctionnalités et commodités.

Après un achat réussi de l’équipement/dispositif, prenez un moment pour vous familiariser avec toutes les parties du manuel d'utilisation Behringer CX3400. À l'heure actuelle, ils sont soigneusement préparés et traduits pour qu'ils soient non seulement compréhensibles pour les utilisateurs, mais pour qu’ils remplissent leur fonction de base de l'information et d’aide.

    15 3.3.1 Finding drop-outs in the frequency response Check the entire frequency response of the system. Rooms have quite an impact on the frequency response of speaker systems, due to resonance and various reflections. So, you cannot expect to achieve a linear frequency response right from the start. Use an equalizer such as our ULTRA-CURVE P[...]

    16 3.5.2 Basics of electronic runtime correction It is important to know how the dimensions of time and space are connected with each other, e.g. by using a tape measure and a pocket calculator. Example: a delay of 2 ms corresponds to a distance of 68.6 cm; when you measure an offset of 30 cm you can calculate the necessary delay as follows: 2 ms x[...]

    17 Modern systems often use bass reflex cabinets for their woofer or sub-woofer systems. Consequently, when stacking the cabinets, the drivers are usually aligned along the vertical axis of the speaker front, or can at least be aligned using the available control range of the SUPER-X PRO. Here, runtime correction follows the same principle as in mi[...]

    18 The limiter threshold can be set from -6 dB to OFF and acts on all six limiters at the same time. Still, each limiter band works independently, with the LIM-LEDs lighting up as soon as the associated limiter is activated. + Please note that the limiters in the SUPER-X PRO are no hard ratio limiters, i.e. signal peaks can surpass the adjust[...]
