Chapter 1: Introduction & Manual Overview 

 
This system is a reliable, high performance, high speed, standalone manual tower system. 
With its professional industrial design and simple user interface, it will make your duplicating 
experience easier than ever.  

 

Before you start: 

 

Before you start using this system, please read the following to ensure proper operation: 
 

1.  Important Notice: 

The type of system you purchase will determine the type of discs you are able to copy.  For 
example, if you purchased a CD only system, then you will only be able to copy onto 
recordable CD formats.  If you purchased a DVD system, then you can copy on to 
recordable DVD and CD formats.  If you purchased a Blu-ray system, then you can copy 
onto recordable Blu-ray, DVD, and CD formats. 
If you have a Blu-ray capable system, the terms CD or DVD can be substituted for Blu-ray 
within the text of this user manual.  
 

2.  System Limitations: 

The system will not copy any CD, DVD, or Blu-ray discs that have Copy Protection 
encoding.  Typically, the movies purchased or rented from a retail store will contain copy 
protection. 
 
In addition to the copy protection limitation, the system cannot copy across formats.  This 
means that it is not possible to copy a DVD master onto a recordable CD or vice versa.  In 
addition, target discs must have the exact same capacity as the source disc.  This means 
that it is not possible to copy a single layer DVD or Blu-ray Disc onto a double/dual layer 
DVD or Blu-ray Disc or vice versa.   The recordable blanks must be the same format and 
maximum capacity as the master disc. 

 

3.  Temperature Warning: 

If the system was stored in a location where the temperature dropped below 32

F (0

C) 

within the past 24 hours, please leave the system in a warm room with temperatures at least 
65

F (19

C) for 4 hours prior to powering it on for the first time.  Failure to do so may cause 

irreparable harm and prevent the system from functioning. 
 

4.  External Connection Warning: 

In order to operate the system as a standalone unit (no connection to the computer), all USB 
and/or Firewire connection(s) must be turned off.  If by chance, the USB/Firewire 
connection(s) are activated, please refer to 

“Appendix A: Optional External Device (USB 

2.0/Firewire 1394) Setup Guide”
