Un bon manuel d’utilisation

Les règles imposent au revendeur l'obligation de fournir à l'acheteur, avec des marchandises, le manuel d’utilisation Quatech SSP-100. 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 Quatech SSP-100 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 Quatech SSP-100 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 Quatech SSP-100 devrait contenir:
- informations sur les caractéristiques techniques du dispositif Quatech SSP-100
- nom du fabricant et année de fabrication Quatech SSP-100
- instructions d'utilisation, de réglage et d’entretien de l'équipement Quatech SSP-100
- 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 Quatech SSP-100 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 Quatech SSP-100 et les moyens de résoudre des problèmes communs lors de l'utilisation. Enfin, le manuel contient les coordonnées du service Quatech 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 Quatech SSP-100, 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 Quatech SSP-100, 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 Quatech SSP-100. 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.

    2 . DOS / Windows 3.x Installation Two configuration software programs are provided with the SSP-100 : a Client Driver, and a card Enabler. Both of these programs are executed from DOS (before entering Windows) and allow operation of the SSP-100 in both the DOS and Windows 3.x environments. For optimal operation, however, the Client Driver is the p[...]

    2 . 1 SSP-100 Client Driver for DOS In order to use the SSP-100 Client Driver, the system must be configured with Card and Socket Services software. Card and Socket Services software is not provided with the SSP-100 but is available from Quatech . IMPORTANT: Some versions of Card and Socket Services dated before 1993 do not support general purpose [...]

    version of Card and Socket Services must be installed on the system or the SSP-100 Enabler program must be used to configure the adapter. If the Client Driver reports the desired adapter configuration, the installation process is complete and the SSP-100 may be removed and/ or inserted from the system as desired. On each insertion into the PCMCIA s[...]

    option. If no number is specified, the SSP-100 will be configured as the next available COM Port using the standard base address and IRQ settings for that COM port. If this option is omitted, the user must either specify a base address or IRQ setting for the SSP-100 or allow Card and Socket Services to select a base address and IRQ to configure the[...]

    DEVICE = C: SSP-100 SSP100CL.SYS (b300,i5) (i10) ( ) In example 5, three command line arguments are provided. The Client Driver will first attempt to configure a SSP-100 inserted into any socket with a base address of 300H and IRQ 5. The BIOS equipment list will not be updated. If address 300H or IRQ 5 is unavailable, the Client Driver will proc[...]

    2.1.2.7 Example 7 DEVICE = C: SSP-100 SSP100CL.SYS (s0,b300,i5) (s1,b340,i10) The type of configuration shown in example 7 may be desirable in systems where more than one SSP-100 is to be installed. In this example, the Client Driver will attempt to configure a SSP-100 inserted into socket 0 with a base address of 300H and IRQ 5. If the SSP-100 [...]

    2 . 1 . 3 Common Problems Generic Client Drivers: Many Card and Socket Services packages include a generic client driver (or SuperClient) which configures standard I/O devices. If one of these generic client drivers is installed, it may configure the SSP-100 causing the SSP-100 client driver to fail installation. In these cases, the user should do [...]

    2 . 2 SSP-100 Enabler for DOS For systems that are not operating PCMCIA Card and Socket Services software, the SSP-100 DOS Enabler may be used to enable and configure the adapter. This Enabler, SSP100EN , will operate on any DOS system using an Intel 82365SL or PCIC compatible PCMCIA host adapter including the Cirrus Logic CL-PD6710 / 6720, the VLS[...]

    2 . 2 . 1 Command Line Options To configure a SSP-100 in the system, the Enabler requires one command line argument from the user to determine the configuration of the card. This argument must be enclosed in parenthes e s and within the argument, any or all of the following parameters may be specified using a comma (no spaces) to separate each para[...]

  • Page 19

    Before removing a SSP-100 from its PCMCIA socket, the Enabler should be executed to free the system resources allocated when the card was installed. For this operation the Enabler provides on additional command line option: R instructs the enabler to release the resources previously allocated to the SSP-100 . When the 'R' option is used, [...]

    SSP100EN (s0,a3) In Example 9, the Client Driver will attempt to configure an SSP-100 into socket 0 with the COM 3 standard address of 3E8H and IRQ 4. The COM 3 spot of the BIOS equipment list will be updated automatically. If the requested socket is unavailable, or the COM 3 resource settings are unavailable, the SSP-100 will not be configured and[...]

    2 . 2 . 2 Common Problems Memory Range Exclusion: The Enabler requires a region of high DOS memory when configuring a SSP-100 . This region is 1000H bytes (4KB) long and by default begins at address D0000H (the default address may be changed using the "W" option). If a memory manager such as EMM386, QEMM, or 386Max is installed on the sys[...]
