A good user manual

The rules should oblige the seller to give the purchaser an operating instrucion of Intel 220T, 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 Intel 220T 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 Intel 220T. 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 Intel 220T should contain:
- informations concerning technical data of Intel 220T
- name of the manufacturer and a year of construction of the Intel 220T item
- rules of operation, control and maintenance of the Intel 220T 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 Intel 220T 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 Intel 220T, and methods of problem resolution. Eventually, when one still can't find the answer to his problems, he will be directed to the Intel 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 Intel 220T.

Why one should read the manuals?

It is mostly in the manuals where we will find the details concerning construction and possibility of the Intel 220T 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.

    8 Connection Guidelines General • Ports on the 220T and 210T hubs are half-duplex. T o connect to a device at full-duplex, you must use the optional Ethernet or Fiber Modules. • 220T ports are autonegotiating and can operate at 10Mbps or 100Mbps. The hub matches the highest possible speed of an attached device. • All ports on the 210T hub ope[...]

    9 Stacking Hubs Why Stack? The Express 220T and 210T hubs use the same connectors so they can be stacked together or stacked in combination with the Express 10/100 Stackable hub. By stacking Intel hubs you can: • increase the number of available ports, yet still treat the stack as a single repeater . • use a single Management Module to manage a[...]

    10 Bridging Segments Bridging 220T Hubs A bridge allows two segments to communicate with each other . T ypically , a bridge connects segments operating at different speeds, but it can also connect segments operating at the same speed. By default, the Express 220T’ s internal bridge is active so 10Mbps and 100Mbps segments are automatically bridge[...]

    11 Bridging 210T Hubs All ports on the Express 210T hub operate at the same speed (10Mbps or 100Mbps) so the hub belongs to only one segment at a time. The 210T hub doesn’t contain an internal bridge. T o communicate, the segments must be bridged by a 220T hub or by an external device (like a 10/100 switch). Example 2: Bridging with a 10/100 swit[...]
