Every so often, I will go ahead and actually read a > manual, knowing full well that it is against the Male Code. Sometimes there's a reason NOT to read the manual. I recently bought a (well) used pick and place machine (Quad QSA-30A, made by Samsung). Yes, there can be some translation and cultural issues with foreign-made machines. But, this takes it to an entirely new level! For such a massively complicated machine and software, you need GOOD manuals to walk you through it all. Fortunately, I was able to connect with the guy who did the training classes on this machine at the factory, and he was able to guide me through it. Without his help, I would have junked the machine. The (English) manual has bits of Korean scattered through it, never explains how the machine works, and is basically a TERSE desciption of all the buttons and dialogs of the software. It tells what the button is called, but DOESN'T really tell you what the button DOES, how it does it, etc. I learned my previous machine from the manuals in a few days and was cranking out boards in a week. This machine took THREE MONTHS of frustration (although part of that was taken up fixing things wrong with the machine.) There are some REALLY BAD manuals out there, to the level that you know LESS after reading them than before you started. Jon |

I didn't even think reading the user manual because I am tired of the stupid troubleshooting guides: printer don't print -> check if power is on, or check if there is paper on the tray... I know some users may need this kind of help, but it is uselees for most of us. This Brady manual was more complete and helpful, next time I will read the manual. -- Saludos Miguel Giménez |
