Copies the master CD/DVD/BD. All contents of the master disc will be
duplicated on to all target disc(s) simultaneously.
Simulates the copy process, but no data is recorded onto the blank disc(s).
Note: Test mode can only be done with BD-R, DVD-R and CD-R media
only.
Copies the master CD/DVD/BD, and then verifies the presence of data on
the copied disc(s) to ensure readability of the copied disc(s).
Copies the master CD/DVD/BD, and then immediately follows the copy
process with a bit-for-bit comparison between the master disc and copied
disc(s) to ensure exact duplication.
Note: The “Compare” function cannot be used with audio CDs.
Verifies the presence of data on the copied disc(s) to ensure that the copied
disc(s) can be read back.

(if present) and Writer drive(s).
Displays the duplicator controller information, such as the hardware version,
buffer memory and currently loaded firmware.
Updates the firmware for the controller.
Note: Please make sure that the firmware is approved by the manufacturer
and compatible with the duplicator before performing the update.
Counts the number of successful and failed copies of CD and DVD made by
the duplicator.

Functions:
1. Copy – This command will copy the master disc placed in the designated Source Drive to all target
discs in the Writer Drives. This process burns all information contained on the master disc to the target
discs so the copies are exact duplicates of the master disc.
To Start the Copy Process:
2. Test – This command will simulate the copy process and make sure all target discs are usable. The
test process does NOT burn anything to the blank disc(s). A built-in diagnostic algorism is used to verify
the chance of successful copy for each target disc.
To start the Test Process:
3. Copy + Verify – This command will perform the copy process, and immediately follow with a
verification process on all target discs. This command is especially useful for audio CD duplication.
1). Power on the machine (if not already on).
2). Eject disc tray of the Source Drive and place the master disc in the designated Source Drive
(usually the top drive ). The “master disc” is the original of which copies are made from.
3). Eject disc tray(s) of the Writer Drives and place blank disc(s) on the tray(s). Number of drives
used depends on number of copies desired. It is not necessary to always use all drives.
4). Use the scroll buttons to select the command “1. Copy” and press the ENT button. The drives
will automatically close trays and begin the copy process.
5). Once the copy process is completed, the disc trays will eject and the display will read “Copy
Result: Pass X, Fail Y,” with X being the number of successful copies, and Y being the number of
failed copies. To reduce copy failure, please refer to the troubleshooting section of the manual.
