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
⁰
F (0
⁰
C)
within the past 24 hours, please leave the system in a warm room with temperatures at least
65
⁰
F (19
⁰
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”
