1.1 Features
Not a PC system, no risk of virus infection. Instant power on and off.
Simple one touch copy, real time information shown on the LCD screen
Support Synchronous and Asynchronous copy/compare/erase
High speed copy up to 12MB per second, CF duplicator copy up to 30MB per second
Real time copy and compare technology to guarantee data copy success and complete
Superior embedded technology, the most cost effective product
What is the difference between SD/USB/CF duplicator and PC based duplicator:-
Multi-task processing and single job processing. Unlike a PC based duplicator,
which processes each job one by one, our SD/USB duplicator can work like a
work station which can process multiple jobs simultaneously. Each channel
works independently.
Efficiency. SD/USB/CF duplicator is specially designed for duplicating. It can
perform mass duplicating jobs for a long period of time.
No risk of virus. SD/USB/CF duplicator is an embedded system, it only copies
whatever is on the source. When the system is turned off, nothing will be left in
the system including any viruses. Totally no risk of virus infection
No mistake of copying the wrong files. There are so many files stored in a PC, it
is very likely that an operator could copy the incorrect file.
Instant system on and off. No need to wait for system boot up or shut down.
Easy and fast.
No limitation of card capacity or format.
.
If the source card format’s file system is FAT16 or FAT32, the system will
①
automatically detect its content and copy the content data directly to the target
flash cards. This will help speed up the copy process, making it fast & efficient.

For example:

such data by turning off the copy area function in setup 6.2, the system will copy
whatever the source is to the target flash cards. *Please refer to Setup function 6.2
for Copy Area for details.
If you didn’t turn off the “Copy Area” function and you try to copy not FAT16/32 file
format data, then as soon as you start the COPY, the error (Red) LED will
illuminate. You can then press key to check each Flash Card’s status, there

2. Function Overview
2.1
About Synchro & Asynchro Copy/Compare/Copy+Compare
This duplicator can auto detect and support two copy modes:
Synchronous
Asynchronous
When you plug in a source flash card and press the OK key of Copy or Compare function,
the system will then start to scan the source to check the content size of the source. If the
source content size is less than system’s buffer memory, then it will automatically start
asynchronous copying. If the source content size is larger than the system’s buffer
memory, it will detect this and show the total number of how many target flash cards are
ready for copy or it will auto start synchronous copying when target flash cards are fully
loaded.
What is Synchronous and Asynchronous copying:

memory, after reading and comparing has finished it will then start copying
immediately as soon as there is any device flash card is plugged. You can copy
continuously by plugging in one after one. You can take out a flash card which
has finished copying, and continue to put another flash card in its place. Repeat
the process until you’ve completed your copying. You can turn off the
Asynchronous function and keep Synchronous copying mode no matter what
the content size is, please check setup function 6.6.

2.2 SET UP Functions
Exit?
2.2.1 Copy Area—Quick Copy Mode (Setup 6.2)
ON—Only Data Area. When this function is ON, the system will automatically
analyse the source flash card’s file format. If the file format is FAT12/16/32 file
system which the duplicator recognises then the system will only copy the
content data instead of copying the whole flash card including the empty space.
For example a 2GB flash card which is FAT32 file format and has only 50 MB of
data inside, the system will only copy that specific 50MB of data. Which will only
take a few seconds to copy the source.
OFF—Whole Media (RAW card copy). If the Copy Area function was set to
OFF the system will copy the whole flash card, including the empty space and
format. This function is used when you have a flash source which has an
unknown file format and you don’t want the system to be confused by such a
format.
2.2.2 Asynchronous Hold time (Setup 6.4)
This is to set the time to exit asynchronous copying when you’ve temporarily finished
copying and you’ve pulled out all the devices but you haven’t exited the copying job.
This is to prevent you from mistakenly overwriting a source device when you’d like to
start a new source copy but you forgot to stop the previous asynchronous copying job.
The default setting is 30 seconds. When the system detects that all the flash cards
have been pulled and no new cards have been plugged in after 30 seconds the LCD
will display:
Wait too long
Press OK to exit this Asynchronous or press ESC to keep this status.

2.2.3 Ignore Size (Setup 6.5)
The purpose of this function is to set the flash card capacity tolerance between the
source and target. The default setting is “Don’t Care” that means there is no limit of
tolerance between the source and target. If you require the source and target flash
cards to be limited to a certain capacity tolerance then you can set the % of the
tolerance.
A.
How to keep the Source and Target within a certain tolerance.
If the setting is 3%, this means the capacity between source and target devices allows
only 3% tolerance. You can increase the tolerance % depending on your requirements.
*For example if your source device has a capacity of 1919MB, that means the acceptable
target devices’ capacity will be limited to between 1976MB to 1861MB.
If the capacity difference between the source and target is larger than the tolerance
setting then when you start to copy the error (Red) LED will illuminate. You will then see a
message “not correct size” when you press key to check each flash card status.
B.
What will happen if setting a higher tolerance %?
When you set a higher % it will let the source flash copy to all kind of targets which have
a greater capacity difference from the source flash cards. For example to copy a 1GB
source device to 2GB target devices or from a 4GB device to 1GB targets the content
size must be less than 1GB.
2.1 If a source device has a
example 1GB to 2GB:
Size tolerance % should be set to “don’t care”.
Example: A. Source B. Target
1GB 2GB
The data is randomly located instead of
sequentially located in each flash card

Warning:
The target 2GB will become 1GB when it
read on PC. You can only restore its 2GB
capacity by re-formatting the device.

2.2
If a source flash has a
2GB copy to 1GB:
Set the tolerance % to a higher level or set “don’t care” (no limit).
The copy result i.e. pass or fail will depend on if the content data is within the capacity
of the target devices. Even if the content size is small, there are two results: (as
shown in illustrations 1 and 2)

Utility Functions
1 Erase
○
Quick Erase (function 5.1) will only erase the FAT index table of each flash card,
and Full Erase (function 5.2) will completely erase the whole flash card.
Therefore full erase will take more time.
2 System update
○
This is to update the system’s firmware version. Please save and un-zip the update
file to your SD/USB/CF drive (please don’t put it in a folder). Select function 5.3
system update, and press OK, the system will automatically start system updating.
When it’s finished, please turn off the system for 5 seconds and then turn it on
again. The new version of firmware will have been uploaded.
Operational tips:
○1 DON’T pull out any flash card which is in the copying process. When a flash card is
copying the green LED light will flash. Never pull out any card whose LED is flashing,
this may not only damage the flash card but also the system hardware circuit.
○2 Some users may like to use a USB converter to copy other different types of flash
cards, such as CF, SD, or Memory stick etc. Since the quality and stability of each USB
converter in the market is very different, a poor quality USB converter may cause the
damage to the machine and also the copy quality or Flash card.
