The
Load and Copy
setting will load the master to the hard drive during the first burn cycle;
subsequent burns without leaving Copy mode will use the hard drive image as the source for
added stability.
If you need to change masters when the Duplication Mode is set to Load and Copy, you
must
return to the main
1. Copy
menu.
The
Prompt
setting will ask you to specify Load and Copy or On the Fly when the Copy button is
pressed.
The
On the Fly
setting will always use the loaded master disc in the reader drive as the source.
Counter
Use the Counter menu to enable or disable the
Counter
feature. The counter tells you how many
discs have copied and how many discs are left to go during the duplication process stopping the
job once the desired number of copies has been made.
DVD+R High Compatibility Mode
This feature allows you to turn the
DVD+R High Compatibility Mode
feature
ON
or
OFF
. The
purpose of this feature is to increase the compatibility of DVD+R media with a broader range of
DVD Video players.
ISRC
This option will allow you to enable/disable copying the ISRC code of an Audio CD. ISRC is the
serial number of the audio track that uniquely identifies the song in that audio track. This ISRC
code is commonly found in commercial Audio CDs and rarely seen on home made Audio CDs. By
enabling this feature, the duplication performance will be lowered.
Disable Drives
Use this utility to allow the system to disable certain drives/trays when certain drives/trays are
producing high failure rates.
External Connection
Use this setting to enable one drive in the duplicator to be used as an external drive connected to
your PC via a USB 2.0 connection or the optional Ethernet connection (
Premium
Pro only
).
The
Premium Series
uses the external connection to turn the bottom recorder into an external
drive, allowing you to burn discs to that drive from your PC.
With the
Premium Pro Series
, the external connection is to the hard drive in the duplicator,
allowing you to create or copy ISO disc images directly from your PC into the \
dup
directory on
the Premium Pro hard drive. ISO images copied to that location will be available as hard drive
partitions that can be selected as the duplication source once the External Connection setting is
OFF
. No other image format is supported.
USB Connection
To connect the drive to your PC, you will need to connect your PC and the duplicator
using the supplied USB cable. Plug the flat end of the USB cable to your PC and the
square end to the connection on the back of the duplicator, shown to the right.
Select the Setup menu and use the
▼▲
buttons and press the
ENT
button the display reads
External Connection
. If the display indicates that the connection is
OFF
, use either arrow key to
change the setting to
ON
, then press
ENT
to save the setting. The duplicator will be briefly
unresponsive as the hard drive is released from duplication mode. Press
ESC
to leave the Setup
menu.
Please note that while the External Connection setting is
ON
, the connected drive will be
unavailable for burning to the duplicator.
You should never turn the External Connection setting to
OFF
while data is being transferred to
the connected drive. You do not need to disconnect the USB cable.
To shut off the External Connection on the
Premium Series
, you will only need to change the
setting from On to Off while the connected recorder drive is idle.
For the
Premium Pro
, with the external connection allowing you direct access to the hard drive
through Windows, you will need to perform the following process:
