www.aleratec.com46 Tower Duplicator SA: Tutorials Introduction to Manage Accounts The “Manage Accounts” feature allows the administrator to: • Create user accounts and passwords to prevent unauthorized use of the duplicator. • View existing user account lists. • Edit existing user account information, including name and password. • Delete existing user account(s). • Enable/Disable the Manage Accounts feature. The “Manage Accounts” feature is disabled by default. Prior to activating this feature, the duplicator recognizes all users as the only activated user defined as the administrator. The pre-defined password for this function is “0000”. With this feature enabled additional users will have their own settings and have access only to the hard drive partitions they have loaded. No one else will have the permission to access these settings/partitions other than the Administrator. For example, if USER1 logged-in and loaded a Master Disc to the hard drive partition (Partition A), and USER2 logs-in, USER2 will not have access to any partition loaded by USER1, which includes partition A. To take advantage of this feature, use the following instructions: 1. Change the Administrator password. Please refer to Feature Overview “3. Edit User Info” on page 54 of this User Guide for more information. 2. Create a User Name and Password for every authorized person on this duplicator. Please refer to Feature Overview “2. Create User” on page 54 of this User Guide for more information. 3. Enable the “Manage Accounts” feature by turning on the “Password on Boot UP” setting. Please refer to “Password on Bootup” on page 55 of this User Guide for more information. Note: This duplicator comes with standard license which allows you to create up to 72 users.

www.aleratec.com50 Tower Duplicator SA: Tutorials Introduction to Duplication Mode This feature reduces the “Duplication from Hard Drive” process to a single step. There are three features under “Duplication mode”: 1. On the Fly 2. Load and Copy 3. Prompt On the Fly This mode instructs the duplicator to copy directly from the Master Disc. The duplicator performs simultaneous read and write operations without any delays. Advantage: ▪Ideal for small quantity quick duplication. Disadvantage: ▪Requires a Master Disc for each and every run. (Could be harmful for the Master Disc.) ▪Maximum DVD duplication speed is typically limited under 8x. ▪Requires the Master Disc to be in excellent condition for error free duplication. Load and Copy This mode instructs the duplicator to load your Master Disc into the built-in hard drive partition called “Reserved” and make the requested quantity of copies directly from the hard drive. The content will remain stored in the “Reserved” partition, available for future duplications of the same project until you perform this function again with a new master or manually rename or delete the content from Hard Drive Setup. Once a new master is used for Load and Copy, the “Reserved” partition will be overridden or one will be created if it didn’t exist. Advantage: ▪Faster duplication in a long run. (Un-Restricted DVD Duplication speed supported by the duplication blank media.) ▪Stable duplication. ▪Reliable duplication. Prompt If you set to “Prompt”, when you go to 1. Copy, you will be asked if you want to do “Load and Copy” or “on the Fly”. If you set Duplication Mode to “Load and Copy” or “On the Fly”, you will not be prompted when you go to 1. Copy. The duplicator will do what you have selected in Duplication Mode.

In comparing this duplication mode with the traditional “Duplication from Hard Drive” process, it offers the user more simplicity. By selecting the “Load and Copy” mode via one simple touch, all the necessary tasks will be automated for you and loaded on to the “Reserved” partition. You can rename the data on the “Reserved” partition and place it in a standard partition if you wish to keep it. (This must be done prior to loading a new master through “Load and Copy)”. By default, the duplication mode is set to “Auto”. This will prompt you to choose between one of the duplication modes when you enter any of the following functions: “Copy”, “Test”, “Test + Copy”, and “Copy + Compare”. However, if you prefer not to be prompted each time, you can always go to “14. Setup” and select sub-menu 9 and manually reset it. To do so, preform the following steps: 1. Turn on the duplicator. After the bootup is complete, you will see the following display: 2. Press the UP or DOWN button consecutively until you see following display: 3. Press ENT button once.

After 2 or 3 seconds of processing time, the following Copy Progress Screen will appear. “4012MB” indicates the capacity of the Master Disc. “481MB” indicates the current progress of the duplication in terms of MB “12%” indicates the current progress of the duplication. “0” indicates that you have made 0 copies so far.

www.aleratec.com54 COPYUSBPRESCANSOURCE ESCENT Tower Duplicator SA: Tutorials Note: It is normal to see the progress indicator stay at 0-10% and at 100% for approximately 30 seconds during CD duplication. Additionally it is normal to see the progress indicator stay at 0-10% and at 100% for up to 1 minute during DVD duplication. There is a delay caused by the initializing and finalizing stage of disc duplication. Due to this delay, it is normal to see progress indicators stay at 100% for up to several minutes before moving on. Once the disc duplication is completed, successful copies will be ejected and you will see the following display: Next, refill your blank Discs to continue making more copies. If you wish to copy a new Master Disc, remove the old master and load the new Master Disc prior to loading any new blank discs into the Writer Trays. Note: Failed discs will not be ejected automatically. You will need to manually eject these. Throw away any failed write-once discs. “PASS 3” indicates that you’ve just made 3 successful copies. “FAIL 0” indicates that you have no failure in this run. “3” indicates that you’ve successfully copied 3 copies so far.
