System Overview

The CWR-424-52 is a professional, high-speed CD recordable duplicator engineered for the rackmount
environment. Microboards Technology has applied their expertise in tower CD duplication to develop this
sleek, black rackmount system to meet the demands of the Pro Audio user and information systems
professional alike. The CWR-424-52 automatically detects the format of the master CD and the four
recorders write at a blazing 52x speed to allow for high volume duplication. Features of the CWR-424-52
include a recording simulation mode to ensure your master can be copied safely. A simple, two-button
interface allows the recording speed to be adjusted to slower speeds for use with media not certified for
high-speed duplication. Taiyo Yuden media is suggested for high-speed 52x duplication.

Advanced Features:

4 (52x) CD recorders for high output
One touch start for CD to CD duplication
Selectable recording speeds up to 52x for recording stability
Easy to read LED interface for copy status and error reporting
Simulation mode to ensure recording stability
Black 4U rackmount enclosure for aesthetic integration with current equipment
Updates easily installed through CD reader

Setting up the CWR-424-52 duplicator

Set up the CWR-424-52 duplicator with the following conditions:
19” Rack mount position or
On a level and stable surface
In a well ventilated location
Temperature and humidity:
o Temperature: 5-40° C
o Humidity: 20-80%RH (no dew formation)
Do not locate the CWR-424-52 duplicator:
Under direct sunlight (If the machine is exposed to sunlight, the light should be blocked by
a curtain or blind.)

Dust and dirt can decrease the productivity of the duplicator dramatically. It is very
important to keep the system in a clean and dust free environment.
In winter during times of low humidity or in a location where static electricity is
generated, use an anti-static-electricity mat or humidifier to prevent static electricity
.
