KN7000 Instruction Manual - 11/12/02 02:42 PM
I think that a lot of the questions about "how to" concerning the KN7000 have resulted from the fact that the instruction manual supplied with the instrument is rather shortcut. It does not go into much detail about procedure or even specifications about the capabilities of the instrument.
As an example, I could not find any place where it specified that a single folder on a floppy or on any particular SD card would hold only 20 files. Similarly, it does not tell you how many custom .CST files can be accessed (a bit over 200), or that you can only have one "custom" file on any one disk or card.
When I bought my KN2000 (used), I was fortunate enough to get a copy of Lutz Deterra's and Phillip Leader's book "Exploring the KN2000", which was much more user friendly and informative than the Tecnics manual, even though the Technics manual was very detailed and complete. Unfortunately the KN7000 manual doesn't have one third of the information that the old KN2000 manual had in it about the instrument.
BOTTOM LINE: Has anybody taken it upon themselves to write a more comprehensive "how to" book about the KN7000. It is sorely needed and would surely be appreciated by all serious owners of the KN7000.
Hoping for the best,
Walt
ps: Do I remember reading in one of the posts that Alec had written an extended manual, or am I just wishing?
