A good user manual

The rules should oblige the seller to give the purchaser an operating instrucion of Honeywell IS4910, 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 Honeywell IS4910 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 Honeywell IS4910. 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 Honeywell IS4910 should contain:
- informations concerning technical data of Honeywell IS4910
- name of the manufacturer and a year of construction of the Honeywell IS4910 item
- rules of operation, control and maintenance of the Honeywell IS4910 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 Honeywell IS4910 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 Honeywell IS4910, and methods of problem resolution. Eventually, when one still can't find the answer to his problems, he will be directed to the Honeywell 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 Honeywell IS4910.

Why one should read the manuals?

It is mostly in the manuals where we will find the details concerning construction and possibility of the Honeywell IS4910 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.

    17 Camera Bus Timings The non-decode engine outputs pixel data via an 8-bit parallel data bus. The rate at which data is output is determined by the pixel clock, which can be set for 48, 24, or 12 MHz. When the horizontal and vertical synch signals are high, valid pixel data is latched on the rising edge of the PCLK. New pixel data is then driven o[...]

    18 Wake Up Timing When exiting sleep mode the engine will require a minimum wake up time before an image can be acquired. Wake up is initiated by pulsing the I llum_On pin for a minimum of 250 µS. The pulsing wakes up the on board microcontroller and oscillator. After this pulse is brought low, an additional 10 mS delay is required to ensure that [...]
