A good user manual

The rules should oblige the seller to give the purchaser an operating instrucion of Shure FP24, 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 Shure FP24 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 Shure FP24. 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.

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 Shure FP24 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 Shure FP24, and methods of problem resolution. Eventually, when one still can't find the answer to his problems, he will be directed to the Shure 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 Shure FP24.

    5 Limiters Th e FP24 has two built-in peak-responding limiters, one for each input channel. Each limiter has a two-stage circuit: the first stage keeps the input gain stage from clipping; the second stage limits the variable gain stage according to the Limiter Threshold control set- ting. This unique, two-stage topology limits the gain stage direct[...]

    6 NOTE: When interconnecting the FP24 and FP33, inputs from the FP24 appear at the FP33 mixbus with their polarity reversed. (This is unavoidable due to the nature of the interconnection.) T o avoid cancellation or interference effects (e.g., comb filtering) be- tween the signals from the FP24 and FP33 inputs, use Shure A15PRS polarity inverters on[...]
