The demo mode (short for "demonstration mode", also sometimes mentioned as floor mode or kiosk mode) is a feature often found in consumer electronics. A demo mode is usually programmed into the floor model's firmware, which may be accessed by the pressing of a combination of keys and/or the launch of a program.〔http://hints.macworld.com/article.php?story=20061008105114721〕〔http://forums.cnet.com/7723-13973_102-527787/how-do-you-enable-the-store-demo-mode-in-samsung-551/〕 Demo mode is usually activated by retail stores on their consumer electronics floor models. The demo mode may also be pre-enabled on the floor model.〔http://www.assemblergames.com/forums/showthread.php?37336-PS-Vita-Demo-Mode〕 The purpose of a demo mode is twofold: * It demonstrates the features of the unit in question * It catches the eye of the consumer with a flashy show of lights, entertaining sound, or both. The central idea behind a demo mode is in-store advertising, preview or premiere of the product. ==Usage== The mode itself is often present in the consumer electronics's system as a mode or a hidden file. It is not always present, but when it is, it is used in the floor models. The demo mode can be disabled ("unlocked") or enabled.〔http://community.us.playstation.com/t5/PlayStation-3/Need-Help-taking-my-PS3-off-demo-mode-HELP/td-p/30262114〕〔http://www.ps3news.com/forums/playstation-3-psn-news/turn-off-unlock-demo-mode-56991.html〕 The demo mode is present in phones, microwaves, TVs and other consumer electronics. The demo mode may also be available as a video or mode (like on the Sony Ericsson W610i), which can also be used as a placeholder when there's no SIM card installed. Or the demo mode may not be installed at all in the product as a floor model exclusive. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Demo mode」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
