Quick Guide
Installing CF or CFAST card into the duplicator
Step 1
Depending on the model of the duplicator, insert the source CF or CFAST card into 
the source slot.
Step 2
Depending on the model of the duplicator, insert the target CF or CFAST card(s) 
into the target slot(s).
Step 3
Connect the power cord provided from the wall outlet to the back of the \
tower.  
Push the power switch button to turn on the duplicator.
Duplicating card(s) 
Make sure the source and target cards are in their proper slots.  When the 
duplicator powers on, it will go through the steps below.
Step 1
Duplicator LED will light up and the device will beep.
Step 2
LCD will display initial steps:
  1.  Duplicator Ver: - Displays duplicator version
  2.  Initializing SDRAM 
  3.  Detect Source/Target - Will detect the type of source/targets 
  4.  Copy - Defaults to the first function which is to copy
Step 3
Once the duplicator gets to the copy menu, press ENT to begin copying.  The 
duplicator will auto-detect the card and display its information on the LCD.  Make 
sure that the power LEDs of the flash reader are blinking, the blinking indicates 
drive activity.
You can find the complete user manual of the CF or CFAST Duplicator panel on the 
driver disk under user guides.  You can also download it from our website at 
www.addonics.com/support/user_guides/
Note:  Make sure that the capacity of the target CF or FAST cards are equal or 
larger than the source CF or CFAST Card.  For example, the label on the cards 
might say 8GB for both but they might vary in capacity.  When these cards are used 
in the CF or CFAST Duplicator, you might get an error that says “Target Not Ready”.  
To fix this, you can decrease the source card by going to: 6. Setup > 6.2 Copy Size 
and decrease it by increments of 1% by using the down arrow button.

a copy operation or hardware diagnostics, an error message will show up on\
 the 
LCD. This may lead to an illegal operation and cause the device to stop reminding. 
If this happens, restart the device.

and power cables are properly connected. When making a copy please make sure 
that you set the source correctly.
