Chapter 1: Overview   

1. Welcome   

The Disc Makers ReflexAuto autoloader is a reliable, high performance, high speed, standalone, robotic 
DVD and/or CD autoloader. With its professional industrial design and simple user interface, it makes your 
duplicating experience easier than ever.   

With the Disc Makers ReflexAuto, you can have a capacity from 100 to 1000 discs, duplicate continuously 
for 24 hours (even with multiple masters), and get the highest quality duplication, all at an extremely 
affordable price. The Disc Makers ReflexAuto is the most reliable and affordable autoloader on the market.  

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

DVD Duplication Limitations   

The DVD autoloader will not copy any DVDs that have Copy Protection encoded in the content. Typically, 
most DVDs you purchase or rent from a store contains Copy Protection.  
In addition to the copy protection limitation, the autoloader will only copy a DVD5 format (4.7 GB) disc to 
another DVD5 format recordable DVD media. If your autoloader has double layer/dual layer capability, you 
can copy a DVD9 format (8.5 GB) disc to another DVD9 format recordable DVD media, but you cannot 
duplicate a DVD5 format disc on to a DVD9 format recordable media or vice versa.   

Temperature Warning   

If the autoloader was stored in a location where the temperature dropped below 32° F (0° C) within the past 
24 hours, leave the autoloader in a warm room with temperatures at least 65° F (19° C) for four hours prior 
to powering it on for the first time. Failure to do so may cause irreparable harm and prevent the autoloader 
from functioning.   

Maintenance   

It is very important to operate and keep the autoloader in a dust free, clean environment since dust is the 
number one killer of CD/DVD recording devices. Failure to do so can severely damage your autoloader. We 
strongly suggest that you constantly use an Air Duster (Canned Air) to clear off any dust on the surface of 
the autoloader.   

Note: Do not try to use an Air Duster to clean the autoloader while the writer trays are open. In doing so, you 
may inadvertently blow dust into the recording device and damage it.  
 

Proper Shutdown   

To avoid possible system failures, you need to shut down the autoloader properly. To shut down the 
autoloader use the Shutdown hot key and follow the instructions on the screen. Not performing this 
function increases the risk of damaging the autoloader.
