Un bon manuel d’utilisation

Les règles imposent au revendeur l'obligation de fournir à l'acheteur, avec des marchandises, le manuel d’utilisation Extron electronic DMP 64. 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 Extron electronic DMP 64 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 Extron electronic DMP 64 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 Extron electronic DMP 64 devrait contenir:
- informations sur les caractéristiques techniques du dispositif Extron electronic DMP 64
- nom du fabricant et année de fabrication Extron electronic DMP 64
- instructions d'utilisation, de réglage et d’entretien de l'équipement Extron electronic DMP 64
- 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 Extron electronic DMP 64 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 Extron electronic DMP 64 et les moyens de résoudre des problèmes communs lors de l'utilisation. Enfin, le manuel contient les coordonnées du service Extron electronic 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 Extron electronic DMP 64, 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 Extron electronic DMP 64, 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 Extron electronic DMP 64. 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.

    Dynamics (DYN) A dynamics processor alters the dynamic range, the differ ence between the loudest to the quietest portions, of an audio signal. Each input channel provides two dynamics processor blocks that, when inserted, pr ovide one of four types; AGC, Compressor , Limiter , or a Noise Gate processor . T o insert a processor into an empty block,[...]

  • Page 52

    Automatic Gain Control (AGC) AGC adjusts the gain level of a signal based upon the input strength to achieve a mor e consistent volume. Below the set threshold, the signal is not af fected. Above the thr eshold, weaker signals are boosted up to the maximum gain setting to r each a user -defined target level. As the signal approaches the target leve[...]

  • Page 53

    Compressor The compressor r egulates signal level by r educing (compressing) the dynamic range of the input signal above a specified threshold. The input level to output level ratio determines the reduction in the dynamic range beyond the thr eshold setting. For example, with a ratio setting of 2:1, for every 2dB of input above the threshold, th[...]

  • Page 54

    Limiter The limiter restricts the input signal level by compr essing its dynamic range above a specified threshold. The limiter is most commonly used to pr event clipping, pr otecting a system against component or speaker damage. While the limiter is closely related to the compressor , it applies a much higher compression ratio of ∞:1 above the t[...]

  • Page 55

    Noise Gate The noise gate allows an input signal to pass only when it exceeds a specified threshold level. Above the threshold level, the signal passes unpr ocessed. Below the thr eshold the signal is attenuated at the rate set by the ratio adjustment. The typical setting of the noise gate threshold is just above any noise level in the envir onment[...]

    Delay (DL Y) The delay processor , when inserted, provides a means to delay the audio signal. Audio delay syncs audio to video or can time-align speakers placed at differ ent distances fr om the listener . The DMP64 can set delay by either of two criteria: time or distance (feet or meters). The default units setting is time with a range of 0.0?[...]

    Ducking (DUCK) Ducking provideds a means to duck, or lower , the level of one or more input signals when a specified source must take pr ecedence. The ducking processor block, when inserted, pr ovides a means to duck one or more mics and pr ogram material (ducking targets) when the pr ocessor detects a signal from the ducking sour ce. Ducking lasts[...]

    Ducking Priority Multiple levels of ducking can be requir ed enabling an input sour ce to take precedence over all but one other input. In this example, inputs 2 through 6 ar e set to duck when Input #1 has a signal above the ducking threshold. Input#2 is set to duck inputs 5 and 6. Since Input #1 has previously been set to duck Input #2, Input [...]

    T o set an additional ducking source: 1. Insert a ducking processor on the additional ducking sour ce. In this example, input #2 is the second ducking source, with input#1, as shown above, as the first source. NOTE: Since it was previously selected as a ducking target, Input#1 is not available as a target of input #2. 2. Open the ducking dial[...]

    Pre-mixer Gain (GAIN) The post-input processing gain contr ol (also called the pr e-mixer gain) provides gain or attenuation post-pr ocessing gain block. It includes a mono long-throw fader with a – 100.0 to +12.0dB gain range, and a current level setting r eadout below the fader . Fader adjustments are in 1dB incr ements, while adjustments[...]

    Line Output Channels There ar e four mono line output channels. Contr ols and processing blocks, identical for each output channel, are described in the following sections. Loudness (LOUD) The loudness processor , when inserted, applies a filter compensation curve to the signal in an inverse relationship to the output volume contr ol setting. The h[...]

    Calibrating Loudness The user can fine-tune the amount of loudness compensation using the compensation adjustment slider and adjusting "by ear ," or by measuring SPL levels in a particular room, then using the slider to adjust the loudness filter relative to the SPL of the r oom and system gain structure. Before calibrating loudness, set [...]

    3. Set the Calibrate slider to 0, the center point. Disengage the loudness Bypass . The result is a moderate enhancement to the pr ogram material, with mor e accentuated bass frequencies (below 500Hz), and mor e brightness in the high fr equencies that carry harmonic content (above 7kHz). Engage and disengage the Bypass switch in order to “A/B”[...]

    V olume Control (VOL) Each output channel volume block provides a mono long-thr ow fader with a range of 0 to 100dB of attenuation, and a volume setting readout (indB) below the fader . V olume level is adjustable with the slider or by entering the desired level dir ectly into the volume setting readout in 0.1dB incr ements. Clicking the f[...]
