QuickStart Guide errors
Last modified: 2009-09-08 09:19:37 UTC
CAT PR-0028 1.) A -- In the picture, the (A) isn't anywhere close to the Power Button 2.) B -- "When the music is playing, the wheel also controls the volume." -- this is not true (I wish it were) Plus more errors as seen in the BETA forum post http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=47659
CAT PR-0029 Quick Start Guide Page 7 1.) G -- "press and hold to assign the button to the currently selected item." -- I have not seen this to be true (I wish it were)
CAT PR-0030 1.) A -- "or other audio device with a 3.5mm line level output and enjoying Squeezebox Boom’s advanced driver design and acoustics." -- this doesn't make sense Possibly rewritten as: A. Line in. Ideal for connecting an MP3 player, portable CD player, or other audio device with a 3.5mm line. Enjoy Squeezebox Boom’s advanced driver design and acoustics. I don't know, the whole part about the driver design and acoustics just doesn't really flow or make sense at all with how the sentence starts.
CAT PR-0031 Quick Start Guide Page 11 This page states the user should go to "http://boomcat.squeezenetwork.com" to setup their SqueezeNetwork account. However, the device itself says the user should go to "http://boom.squeezenetwork.com". Which URL should the user go to? Are they the same? If so, why does the Guide state something different than the device?
CAT PR-0032 Quick Start Guide Page 25-26 "[EN] Use of this product is authorized in the following countries: ... AT, CY, BE, BGR*, DK, UK, FI, FR**, DE, GR, HU, IE, LU, NL, PT, ES, SE, IS, LI, NO, CH, CZ, PL, RO, SK, SI, EE, LV, LT, MT" Apparently the use of this device isn't authorized in the USA?
Read the FORUM post for more issues with the QSG
Dylan, are you working on the qsg
Keep in mind that the signal to noise ratio in this thread is not 100%. ie. "I dislike Duran Duran" is not actionable. Many of the issues in the graphics pointed out have since been fixed in the production version, and the QSG refers to some features (e.g. scroll wheel controlling volume) which are not presently implemented and thus mistaken for errors in the manual. But, there's some good stuff in there. Thanks for archiving this and I'll reference it when I begin the QSG refresh.
Dylan: How is the quick start guild looking?
The task of revising the Quick Start Guide will take priority after the product is launched. I have gone through and sorted all the feedback from the community, so this bug may be closed. About 10% of the feedback was useful, and I was able to integrate some of the feedback into the User Guide.

QA to verify ALL of Boom QSG before shipment date.
