							Power On Sequence
When  first  powered  on,  the  duplicator  subassembly  will  perform  self-tests  and  wait  for  a
delay  period  to  allow  drives  to become  ready.  After  this  it  will  scan  ports  for  drives,  then
display the default menu option (factory set to COPY).
Duplicator Functions
The  duplicator  has  six  menu  sections:  The  Main  menu,  Image,  Edit  Track,  Lightscribe,
Setup  Options  and  Advanced  Setup.  Advanced  Setup  Options  is  accessed  through  the
Main menu.
Advanced Setup is accessed by holding the ESC button from any other menu until the unit
beeps.
Using the Hard Disk Port
The  hard  disk  must  be  formatted  by  the  Duplicator  Controller  itself  and  contains  a  list  of
images that have been captured.
After the drive is formatted, enter Main Menu option 8, Select Source. Use the arrow keys
until it shows “Src: HDD.” See the Image Menu options listed below for functions using the
internal hard disk.
Main Menu
1. Copy
Copies  from  the  source  to  the  target  drives.  Rewritable  media  may  be  used  for  targets;
however, all existing data will be erased before proceeding with the copy operation. Insert
all  discs  and  wait  for  the  drives  to  settle  before  pressing  ENT.  When  complete,  elapsed
time will be displayed as well as the number of OK copies made. Discs copied OK will be
ejected automatically.
2. Test
Simulates copy process. Function is identical to Copy without actually writing source data
to target discs. Rewritable media may be used; however, all data will be erased before Test
process proceeds with simulation. Testing is not supported for DVD+R media.
3. Test & Copy
Performs  Test  function  followed  by  Copy  function.  Testing  is  not  supported  for  DVD+R
media.
4. Verify
Confirms all target discs are readable.
5. Compare
Confirms all data on target discs as identical to source disc. Results are: OK for identical
data,  FAIL indicates  target  Table  Of  Contents  does  not  match  or too  many  mismatches
occurred, and DIFF will show number of targets that are different.
6. Prescan
Confirms source disc is entirely readable without error.
7. Disc Info
Detect and report disc type and capacity.
8. Select Source
Allows selection of source drive. Default is CH01, which is the top unit on this duplicator.
Selecting  HDD  is  not  supported  on  this  duplicator.  Leaving  this  set  to  CH01  is  strongly
recommended.

media type the image was captured from, second line shows the size.
9-04. Compare Image
Compares  the  data  in  the  currently  selected Partition  to  the  disc  in  the  currently
selected  Image  Source  Drive.  After  Compare,  output  is  OK  meaning  compare  was
good,  Fail meaning  an  error  occurred,  or Diff  meaning the  data  did  not  compare  as
identical.
9-05. Select Image
Defines  the  currently  selected  Partition  for  use  with  the  imaging  operations.  While
selecting,  display  shows  Partition  label  (A,  B,  etc.),  type  of  media  and  size,  or  will

ENT. After confirming the selection, the duplicator will burn the selected tracks to the
target  media.  When  complete,  press  ENT and the  duplicator  will  ask  if  you  want  to
continue.  Selecting  “Yes”  will eject  the  source  disc  and  prompt  for  the  next  source,
then  return  to  track  selection.  Selecting  “No”  will  respond  with  “Close  all  discs
session?” to confirm finalizing target media. When target media sessions are closed,
