Using the USB Duplicator
Synchronous and Asynchronous
The 1:11 USB Copy Cruiser SA supports two copying methods:
• Synchronous
• Asynchronous
Synchronous Copying
Synchronous Copying means that all ash drives begin copying together. Synchronous Copying is used when the source data is larger than the system buffer (256MB).
You can check the size of the data source drive by inserting the source drive into the USB Duplicator and using the arrow keys to rst select “Information”, then select “USB Info”.
Plug in one source and up to 11 target USB ash drives. The display will read out the number of USB ash drives that are ready for copying and the content size. When you have nished loading the target drives use the arrow keys to select “Copy” and then select OK.
Asynchronous Copying
Asynchronous Copying is used when the data les are the same as or less than the systems buffer memory (256MB). If the source data content is less than the systems buffer memory you can copy ash drives continuously by taking out the drive which has nished copying, and replacing it with another blank. Asynchronous Copying will start immediately after loading the rst target drive.
When this process is used the source data is read into systems buffer rst. You can check the size of the data source USB ash drive by inserting it into the USB Duplicator and using the arrow keys to rst select “Information”, then select “USB Info”.

7.2 Copy Area
This function supports the selection of Quick Copy or Copy whole area of the source.
7.2.1 Only Data area – Quick Copy If the controller system can verify FAT 16, 32, NTFS, Linux Ext 2, Ext
3 format for the source, the system will copy just the data area when this function is selected. If it cannot verify the format, the system will automatically copy the whole area of the source. For example, if a 2GB source is FAT 32 and it has 50MB of data, the system will copy only the 50MB of data.
7.2.2 Whole area – Controller will copy whole area of the source. If the source is not FAT 16, 32, NTFS, Linux Ext 2, Ext 3 format, the
system will copy the entire media, even the blank area. When this function is selected, Quick Copy will not be used. The copy process takes longer.

7.5 Ignore Size
To make sure the FAT table of each ash drive was copied correctly all source and target ash drives should be the same capacity. Each ash drive potentially has some capacity difference due to the manufacturing process. To ensure both the source and target ash drives are at the same capacity you can set the capacity tolerance. This function is used to set the tolerance % of ash capacity difference between source and targets.

Note: Source flash drive and blank drives need to be the same capacity for two reasons.
1. During the copy process the source flash drive “index sector” is copied to
the target flash drive. The index sector of a flash drive contains the drives specifications, size and FAT table. Different drive sizes will have different index sectors. For example if your are copying a 2G source flash drive to a 4G target flash drive without performing data transforming, the index sector of the 2G source would be copied to the 4G target flash drive effectively changing it to a 2G flash drive because of the copied 2G index sector.
2. If you allow the system to execute data transforming from a source flash drive to
multiple target flash drive in addition to longer copying time there is a potential for data loss during data transforming.
Note: If you need to copy a source flash to a target with a big capacity difference there are two ways to avoid potential problems.
1. Use the Setup function Ignore Size to increase the tolerance % of the source and
target.
2. Turn the Setup function Analyze Source to OFF.
