Mode 2 Compare

Under the ISO 9660 standard, a CD-ROM sector can be Mode 1 or Mode 2.

Mode 1 allocates2048 bytes for user data, plus a third layer of error detection and error correction
codes. This is the Mode that provides the highest integrity for computer data.

Mode 2 allocates 2336 bytes for user data, and no third layer of error detection and error
correction. This mode is considered appropriate for segments of music, graphics and video,
especially in CD-ROM-XA and CD-I implementations.

If you want to verify that the information on the master CD matches that on the copy, then set this
sub-function to 

Yes

, and the system will compare the two.  The default for this sub-function is

No

.

Options:
No (default)
Yes

Startup Command

You can set the system up so that the startup operation mode is always the same.  In most cases,
users will want

 as the startup command.  However, you may set the system to start with

any of the operations listed as options below.
