    Compatibility
    Duplicator is USB 2.0 compliant. Works with USB 3.0 devices at 480Mb/s.
    Works with the following devices:
    - USB Flash media drive
    - USB External hard disk
    - Addonics Pocket Ultra DigiDrive (including PCMCIA storage devices or 
      flash storage with the Addonics adapters)
    - Addonics Pocket eSATA/USB DigiDrive
    - Addonics Pocket Micro SATA UDD
    - Addonics Diamond or Ruby ExDrive, with or without Cipher feature, using \
      the Addonics USB 3.0 to eSATAp Adapter
    - Any of the above USB storage devices used with the Addonics CipherUSB
    NOTE: Using an external power supply with storage devices that support 
    external power is strongly recommended.
    Using the Duplicator with Adapters not supplied by Addonics is not 
    supported or recommended.
    Duplicating source media encrypted using the Addonics Cipher family of 
    products can be done without using the Cipher hardware – which will r\
    esult 
    in encrypted duplicates. This requires the Setup option Copy Area to be set 
    to “Whole Media.”
    The Duplicator can copy media formatted as FAT16, FAT32, NTFS, ext2 or 
    ext3 with the Setup option Copy Area  set to “System and Files.” Copying 
    NTFS media this way requires target media that is larger in capacity tha\
    n the 
    source.
    Quick Start
    1. Insert the source device into the source slot, and any target devices\
     
        desired.
    2. Turn on the unit.
    3. After a self-diagnostic, the unit will scan all ports and start on the C\
    opy 
        function.
    4. Press OK to begin.
    5. The Duplicator can operate in Asynchronous mode if it is able to contain 
    all of the source data in internal memory – about 200MB. Otherwise it\
     will 
        operate in Direct mode.
    For Direct mode:
      Once the Duplicator has analyzed the source device, it will scan for 
    suitable target devices. While examining connected targets, the ports g\
    reen 
    LED will blink. If the device is suitable, the green LED will glow. If the device 
    is unsuitable, the red LED will glow. The Display will show how many targets 
    are ready.
      Press OK once all of the targets are ready to begin copying. The 
    green LEDs will blink to indicate activity. Once copying is complete for a 
    target, the green LED will glow to indicate copy succeeded or the red LE\
    D 
    will glow to indicate the copy failed.
    For Asynchronous mode (default):
      Once the Duplicator has analyzed the source device, it will scan for 
    suitable target devices. While examining a target device, the green LED \
    will 
    blink. If a target device is suitable, the green LED will continue to bl\
    ink and 
    the copy process will begin immediately. When a target is finished, the green 
    LED will glow to indicate the copy succeeded, or the red LED will glow t\
    o 
    indicate the copy failed.
      Once a target devices port LED is glowing green or red, the device 
    may be removed and another inserted in its place. The new device will be 
    examined and copying will proceed. The LCD Display will show an ongoing 
    tally of devices that passed and failed the copy process.
    Duplicator Functions
    The Duplicator menu has three sections: Main Menu, and Utility and Setup\
     
    which are accessed as Main Menu Items 6 and 7.
    Main Menu
    1. Copy
    Performs the Copy process as described in the Quick Start section. When \
    the Copy function is on the menu display, it also shows the current setting for 
    the Copy Area function in the Setup Menu: (Data) for the “System and Files”\
     
    setting, or (Whole) for the “Whole Media” setting. For details, \
    see 7.2. Copy 
    Area.
    2. Compare
    Performs a full comparison between the target devices and the source 
    device.
    3. Copy+Compare
    Performs both the Copy and Compare functions in a single step. Between 
    the two functions the devices are all powered down for a duration set by\
     the 
    Power Off Time Between Copy+Compare function in the Setup menu. 
    Copy+Compare does not display the Copy Area setting.
    4. Capacity Check
    Performs a basic test on target devices to determine if they are functio\
    ning 
    properly. Does not report the status of the source device. Displays pass and 
    fail counts, and number of drives remaining to test under “Capacity”\
     when in 
    progress. When complete, each target port will show a green or red LED 
    glowing to indicate which devices pass or fail. Using the arrow keys wil\
    l show 
    the status or capacity of each device.
    Capacity Check does work in Asynchronous mode, so once its been 
    activated, target devices can be removed when finished and more target 
    devices can be inserted.
    NOTE: NEVER remove a device while the LED is blinking.
    5. In formation
    The Information function is actually a sub-menu with two functions:
    5.1. USB Info.
    Pressing OK for USB info will begin with a port number (beginning with \
    [1], 
    which is the SOURCE port). Use the arrow buttons to move between ports.\
     
    As each port is selected, the unit will read a device if present, and re\
    port on 
    the capacity and file system found on that port.
    5.2. System Info.
    Displays the type of duplicator (by source and target count, for exampl\
    e 1-7) 
    and the firmware version.
    Utility Menu
    6.1. Do Format
    Formats the target media using the following sub-options:
    6.1.1. Auto Format
    The Duplicator will format the media using the following rules:
    If the media is formatted using one partition of either FAT16 or FAT32, the 
    unit will simply reformat the media the same way.
    If the media is not formatted using a FAT file system, it will be formatted as 
    FAT16 if the capacity is under 2GB, or FAT32 if greater than 2TB.
    6.1.2. FAT Format
    The Duplicator will format the media as FAT16.
    6.1.3. FAT32 Format
    The Duplicator will format the media as FAT32.
    Having chosen one of the three sub-options, press OK once more to confir\
    m 
    the choice or ESC to cancel.
    NOTE: NEVER remove a device while the LED is blinking.
    6.2. Measure Speed
    Estimates the read and write speed of the target media. After selecting this 
    function, the port number in use will appear on the LCD, beginning with \
    Port 
    2 (the first target). Press the arrow buttons to switch between target\
    s. Once a 
    target is detected, the test will continue to run without accepting any \
    more 
    input until it is complete, then provide a short report on the read and \
    write 
    speed for the media found.
    NOTE: NEVER remove a device while the LED is blinking.
    6.3. Media Check
    Performs a full examination of all space on target media using the follo\
    wing 
    sub-options:
    6.3.1. H3 Safe
    Performs a read-only examination of media, without harming any data.
    6.3.2. H5 R/W
    Performs a destructive read-write examination of media.
    6.3.3. Setup Range
    This option determines how much of the media is examined by the Media 
    Check, expressed as a percentage. This percentage is shown in the Media 
    Check menu for the Safe and R/W options. Default setting is 100%.
    6.3.4. Set Error Limit
    This option determines how much of the tested media may show an error 
    before a media is counted as a FAIL. Expressed as a percentage of the 
    tested area. The Default setting is 0.
    Media Check uses Asynchronous Mode, meaning devices may be removed 
    once tested and new media may be inserted after the process begins.
    NOTE: NEVER remove a device while the LED is blinking.
    6.4. Quick Erase
    Erases all content on all target media, leaving the file system intact. \
    Quick 
    Erase only works on FAT16 or FAT32 file systems. Media formatted using 
    other file systems will fail, leaving the data intact. Works in Asynchronous 
    Mode, meaning media may be removed once erased and more may be 
    inserted later.
    NOTE: NEVER remove a device while the LED is blinking.
    6.5. Full Erase
    Erases all content on target media completely by overwriting all blocks \
    with 
    zeros, leaving the media unformatted when complete. Works in Asynchro-
    nous Mode, meaning media may be removed once erased and more may be 
    inserted later.
    NOTE: NEVER remove a device while the LED is blinking.
    6.6. DoD Erase
    Performs a 3-pass sanitization of all media blocks compliant with DoD 
    5220.22-M standards.
    6.7. System Update
    Performs a firmware update to the unit. Update procedure details to be 
    released with the update itself. Briefly, insert a media into the device contain -
    ing the binary firmware image, then press OK. When the process is com -
    plete, turn the unit completely off, wait five seconds, then turn the unit back 
    on.
    6.8. Calc. Checksum
    Calculates a checksum value for the  Copy Area function defined in the 
    Setup Menu.
    NOTE: This function is not to be used to validate copies. Media that have 
    identical content and structure may still have different checksums. Testing 
    media devices for accurate duplication should only be done using the Com\
     -
    pare function.
    Setup Menu
    7.1. Startup Menu
    Defines the function that will appear by default after power-on testing \
    is 
    completed. Any of the Main Menu functions may be selected.
    Default is 1. Copy.
    7.2. Copy Area
    Determines the method for copying from the source device to the target 
    devices: “Whole Media” copies the entire device, sector-by-sector \
    – without 
    any regard to the contents. “System and Files” copies only the con\
    tents of file 
    systems understood by the firmware: FAT16, FAT32, NTFS, ext2 or ext3. File 
    systems not recognized by the firmware will be copied using the “Whol\
    e 
    Media” method.
    Default is “System and Files.”
    7.3. Button Beep
    Enables or disables the unit sounding a “beep” noise when buttons \
    are 
    pressed.
    7.4. Asyn Hold Time
    During operations that use Asynchronous Mode, this setting determines the 
    delay after all media have been removed before confirming that an operat\
    ion 
    is complete. Once that delay has been expired, the operation will halt a\
    nd the 
    display will request confirmation to exit the function. Press OK to conf\
    irm the 
    exit, ESC to resume the function.
    Settings are “Turn OFF” to disable this feature, meaning Asynchronous 
    functions will continue indefinitely until ESC is pressed, or a selectio\
    n of 
    delay in seconds or minutes.
    Default is “Turn OFF.”
    7.5. Target Tolerance
    Used to define the acceptable difference in capacity during the copy function, 
    using one of three settings:
    No Limit: Target capacity will not be considered before proceeding.
    100% Same: Target capacity will be considered suitable only if the capacity is 
    identical to the source.
    Allow tolerance: Selecting this option offers two additional choices: Set UP 
    Limit allows either “No Limit” or a percentage greater than the so\
    urce capac -
    ity. Set LOW Limit allows either “No Limit” or a percentage less than\
     the 
    source capacity.
    The Target Tolerance menu item displays the current setting in parentheses. 
    Default is “No Limit.”
    NOTE: The size of the file system on the source is always duplicated with all \
    contents. Target devices greater than or less than the source capacity will not 
    reflect any changes to correct the difference.
    The Duplicator always copies files in their original location. If a smal\
    ler target 
    is allowed, any files that occupy space on the source that doesnt exist\
     on the 
    target will cause the duplicate to fail.
    7.6. Asynchronous
    Enables or disables Asynchronous Mode during the copy function. When 
    enabled, the Copy, Compare, and Copy+Compare functions will work as 
    described by the Quick Start section of this User Guide. When disabled, \
    the 
    Copy, Compare, and Copy+Compare functions will work as described in the 
    Quick Start section of this User Guide in Direct Mode only.
    Default is “Enable.”
    7.7. Check Before Copy
    Enables or disables testing target media before proceeding with the Copy\
     
    function.
    Default is “Do Check” (enabled).
    7.8. Power Off Time Between Copy+Compare
    Determines the delay in seconds between the Copy and Compare functions 
    during Main Menu function 3. Copy+Compare.
    Default is 3 (seconds).
    7.9. Language
    Sets the language used by the firmwares LCD display. Choices are English 
    or Japanese.
    Default is English.
    7.10. Working Mode
    Determines the approximate rate at which the Duplicator will attempt to \
    copy 
    media. Faster settings may shorten copy time but result in higher failur\
    e 
    rates, slower settings will cause the process to take longer but will im\
    prove 
    the reliability of the copy.
    Default is “Normal Mode.” Choices are: Slowest, Slower, Normal, Faster, 
    Fastest.
    7.11. Set HDD Mode
    When enabled, all target devices will be required to be equal to or grea\
    ter 
    than the capacity of the source, overriding “LOW Limit” tolerance \
    settings 
    (see 7.5. Target Tolerance).
    7.12. Restore Default
    Returns all settings to their factory default values.

    any regard to the contents. “System and Files” copies only the con\
    tents of file 
    systems understood by the firmware: FAT16, FAT32, NTFS, ext2 or ext3. File 
    systems not recognized by the firmware will be copied using the “Whol\
    e 
    Media” method.
    Default is “System and Files.”
    7.3. Button Beep
    Enables or disables the unit sounding a “beep” noise when buttons \
    are 
    pressed.
    7.4. Asyn Hold Time
    During operations that use Asynchronous Mode, this setting determines the 
    delay after all media have been removed before confirming that an operat\
    ion 
    is complete. Once that delay has been expired, the operation will halt a\
    nd the 
    display will request confirmation to exit the function. Press OK to conf\
    irm the 
    exit, ESC to resume the function.
    Settings are “Turn OFF” to disable this feature, meaning Asynchronous 
    functions will continue indefinitely until ESC is pressed, or a selectio\
    n of 
    delay in seconds or minutes.
    Default is “Turn OFF.”
    7.5. Target Tolerance
    Used to define the acceptable difference in capacity during the copy function, 
    using one of three settings:
    No Limit: Target capacity will not be considered before proceeding.
    100% Same: Target capacity will be considered suitable only if the capacity is 
    identical to the source.
    Allow tolerance: Selecting this option offers two additional choices: Set UP 
    Limit allows either “No Limit” or a percentage greater than the so\
    urce capac -
    ity. Set LOW Limit allows either “No Limit” or a percentage less than\
     the 
    source capacity.
    The Target Tolerance menu item displays the current setting in parentheses. 
    Default is “No Limit.”
    NOTE: The size of the file system on the source is always duplicated with all \
    contents. Target devices greater than or less than the source capacity will not 
    reflect any changes to correct the difference.
    The Duplicator always copies files in their original location. If a smal\
    ler target 
    is allowed, any files that occupy space on the source that doesnt exist\
     on the 
    target will cause the duplicate to fail.
    7.6. Asynchronous
    Enables or disables Asynchronous Mode during the copy function. When 
    enabled, the Copy, Compare, and Copy+Compare functions will work as 
    described by the Quick Start section of this User Guide. When disabled, \
    the 
    Copy, Compare, and Copy+Compare functions will work as described in the 
    Quick Start section of this User Guide in Direct Mode only.
    Default is “Enable.”
    7.7. Check Before Copy
    Enables or disables testing target media before proceeding with the Copy\
     
    function.
    Default is “Do Check” (enabled).
    7.8. Power Off Time Between Copy+Compare
    Determines the delay in seconds between the Copy and Compare functions 
    during Main Menu function 3. Copy+Compare.
    Default is 3 (seconds).
    7.9. Language
    Sets the language used by the firmwares LCD display. Choices are English 
    or Japanese.
    Default is English.
    7.10. Working Mode
    Determines the approximate rate at which the Duplicator will attempt to \
    copy 
    media. Faster settings may shorten copy time but result in higher failur\
    e 
    rates, slower settings will cause the process to take longer but will im\
    prove 
    the reliability of the copy.
    Default is “Normal Mode.” Choices are: Slowest, Slower, Normal, Faster, 
    Fastest.
    7.11. Set HDD Mode
    When enabled, all target devices will be required to be equal to or grea\
    ter 
    than the capacity of the source, overriding “LOW Limit” tolerance \
    settings 
    (see 7.5. Target Tolerance).
    7.12. Restore Default
    Returns all settings to their factory default values.

    Compatibility
    Duplicator is USB 2.0 compliant. Works with USB 3.0 devices at 480Mb/s.
    Works with the following devices:
    - USB Flash media drive
    - USB External hard disk
    - Addonics Pocket Ultra DigiDrive (including PCMCIA storage devices or 
      flash storage with the Addonics adapters)
    - Addonics Pocket eSATA/USB DigiDrive
    - Addonics Pocket Micro SATA UDD
    - Addonics Diamond or Ruby ExDrive, with or without Cipher feature, using \
      the Addonics USB 3.0 to eSATAp Adapter
    - Any of the above USB storage devices used with the Addonics CipherUSB
    NOTE: Using an external power supply with storage devices that support 
    external power is strongly recommended.
    Using the Duplicator with Adapters not supplied by Addonics is not 
    supported or recommended.
    Duplicating source media encrypted using the Addonics Cipher family of 
    products can be done without using the Cipher hardware – which will r\
    esult 
    in encrypted duplicates. This requires the Setup option Copy Area to be set 
    to “Whole Media.”
    The Duplicator can copy media formatted as FAT16, FAT32, NTFS, ext2 or 
    ext3 with the Setup option Copy Area  set to “System and Files.” Copying 
    NTFS media this way requires target media that is larger in capacity tha\
    n the 
    source.
    Quick Start
    1. Insert the source device into the source slot, and any target devices\
     
        desired.
    2. Turn on the unit.
    3. After a self-diagnostic, the unit will scan all ports and start on the C\
    opy 
        function.
    4. Press OK to begin.
    5. The Duplicator can operate in Asynchronous mode if it is able to contain 
    all of the source data in internal memory – about 200MB. Otherwise it\
     will 
        operate in Direct mode.
    For Direct mode:
      Once the Duplicator has analyzed the source device, it will scan for 
    suitable target devices. While examining connected targets, the ports g\
    reen 
    LED will blink. If the device is suitable, the green LED will glow. If the device 
    is unsuitable, the red LED will glow. The Display will show how many targets 
    are ready.
      Press OK once all of the targets are ready to begin copying. The 
    green LEDs will blink to indicate activity. Once copying is complete for a 
    target, the green LED will glow to indicate copy succeeded or the red LE\
    D 
    will glow to indicate the copy failed.
    For Asynchronous mode (default):
      Once the Duplicator has analyzed the source device, it will scan for 
    suitable target devices. While examining a target device, the green LED \
    will 
    blink. If a target device is suitable, the green LED will continue to bl\
    ink and 
    the copy process will begin immediately. When a target is finished, the green 
    LED will glow to indicate the copy succeeded, or the red LED will glow t\
    o 
    indicate the copy failed.
      Once a target devices port LED is glowing green or red, the device 
    may be removed and another inserted in its place. The new device will be 
    examined and copying will proceed. The LCD Display will show an ongoing 
    tally of devices that passed and failed the copy process.
    Duplicator Functions
    The Duplicator menu has three sections: Main Menu, and Utility and Setup\
     
    which are accessed as Main Menu Items 6 and 7.
    Main Menu
    1. Copy
    Performs the Copy process as described in the Quick Start section. When \
    the Copy function is on the menu display, it also shows the current setting for 
    the Copy Area function in the Setup Menu: (Data) for the “System and Files”\
     
    setting, or (Whole) for the “Whole Media” setting. For details, \
    see 7.2. Copy 
    Area.
    2. Compare
    Performs a full comparison between the target devices and the source 
    device.
    3. Copy+Compare
    Performs both the Copy and Compare functions in a single step. Between 
    the two functions the devices are all powered down for a duration set by\
     the 
    Power Off Time Between Copy+Compare function in the Setup menu. 
    Copy+Compare does not display the Copy Area setting.
    4. Capacity Check
    Performs a basic test on target devices to determine if they are functio\
    ning 
    properly. Does not report the status of the source device. Displays pass and 
    fail counts, and number of drives remaining to test under “Capacity”\
     when in 
    progress. When complete, each target port will show a green or red LED 
    glowing to indicate which devices pass or fail. Using the arrow keys wil\
    l show 
    the status or capacity of each device.
    Capacity Check does work in Asynchronous mode, so once its been 
    activated, target devices can be removed when finished and more target 
    devices can be inserted.
    NOTE: NEVER remove a device while the LED is blinking.
    5. In formation
    The Information function is actually a sub-menu with two functions:
    5.1. USB Info.
    Pressing OK for USB info will begin with a port number (beginning with \
    [1], 
    which is the SOURCE port). Use the arrow buttons to move between ports.\
     
    As each port is selected, the unit will read a device if present, and re\
    port on 
    the capacity and file system found on that port.
    5.2. System Info.
    Displays the type of duplicator (by source and target count, for exampl\
    e 1-7) 
    and the firmware version.
    Utility Menu
    6.1. Do Format
    Formats the target media using the following sub-options:
    6.1.1. Auto Format
    The Duplicator will format the media using the following rules:
    If the media is formatted using one partition of either FAT16 or FAT32, the 
    unit will simply reformat the media the same way.
    If the media is not formatted using a FAT file system, it will be formatted as 
    FAT16 if the capacity is under 2GB, or FAT32 if greater than 2TB.
    6.1.2. FAT Format
    The Duplicator will format the media as FAT16.
    6.1.3. FAT32 Format
    The Duplicator will format the media as FAT32.
    Having chosen one of the three sub-options, press OK once more to confir\
    m 
    the choice or ESC to cancel.
    NOTE: NEVER remove a device while the LED is blinking.
    6.2. Measure Speed
    Estimates the read and write speed of the target media. After selecting this 
    function, the port number in use will appear on the LCD, beginning with \
    Port 
    2 (the first target). Press the arrow buttons to switch between target\
    s. Once a 
    target is detected, the test will continue to run without accepting any \
    more 
    input until it is complete, then provide a short report on the read and \
    write 
    speed for the media found.
    NOTE: NEVER remove a device while the LED is blinking.
    6.3. Media Check
    Performs a full examination of all space on target media using the follo\
    wing 
    sub-options:
    6.3.1. H3 Safe
    Performs a read-only examination of media, without harming any data.
    6.3.2. H5 R/W
    Performs a destructive read-write examination of media.
    6.3.3. Setup Range
    This option determines how much of the media is examined by the Media 
    Check, expressed as a percentage. This percentage is shown in the Media 
    Check menu for the Safe and R/W options. Default setting is 100%.
    6.3.4. Set Error Limit
    This option determines how much of the tested media may show an error 
    before a media is counted as a FAIL. Expressed as a percentage of the 
    tested area. The Default setting is 0.
    Media Check uses Asynchronous Mode, meaning devices may be removed 
    once tested and new media may be inserted after the process begins.
    NOTE: NEVER remove a device while the LED is blinking.
    6.4. Quick Erase
    Erases all content on all target media, leaving the file system intact. \
    Quick 
    Erase only works on FAT16 or FAT32 file systems. Media formatted using 
    other file systems will fail, leaving the data intact. Works in Asynchronous 
    Mode, meaning media may be removed once erased and more may be 
    inserted later.
    NOTE: NEVER remove a device while the LED is blinking.
    6.5. Full Erase
    Erases all content on target media completely by overwriting all blocks \
    with 
    zeros, leaving the media unformatted when complete. Works in Asynchro-
    nous Mode, meaning media may be removed once erased and more may be 
    inserted later.
    NOTE: NEVER remove a device while the LED is blinking.
    6.6. DoD Erase
    Performs a 3-pass sanitization of all media blocks compliant with DoD 
    5220.22-M standards.
    6.7. System Update
    Performs a firmware update to the unit. Update procedure details to be 
    released with the update itself. Briefly, insert a media into the device contain -
    ing the binary firmware image, then press OK. When the process is com -
    plete, turn the unit completely off, wait five seconds, then turn the unit back 
    on.
    6.8. Calc. Checksum
    Calculates a checksum value for the  Copy Area function defined in the 
    Setup Menu.
    NOTE: This function is not to be used to validate copies. Media that have 
    identical content and structure may still have different checksums. Testing 
    media devices for accurate duplication should only be done using the Com\
     -
    pare function.
    Setup Menu
    7.1. Startup Menu
    Defines the function that will appear by default after power-on testing \
    is 
    completed. Any of the Main Menu functions may be selected.
    Default is 1. Copy.
    7.2. Copy Area
    Determines the method for copying from the source device to the target 
    devices: “Whole Media” copies the entire device, sector-by-sector \
    – without 
    any regard to the contents. “System and Files” copies only the con\
    tents of file 
    systems understood by the firmware: FAT16, FAT32, NTFS, ext2 or ext3. File 
    systems not recognized by the firmware will be copied using the “Whol\
    e 
    Media” method.
    Default is “System and Files.”
    7.3. Button Beep
    Enables or disables the unit sounding a “beep” noise when buttons \
    are 
    pressed.
    7.4. Asyn Hold Time
    During operations that use Asynchronous Mode, this setting determines the 
    delay after all media have been removed before confirming that an operat\
    ion 
    is complete. Once that delay has been expired, the operation will halt a\
    nd the 
    display will request confirmation to exit the function. Press OK to conf\
    irm the 
    exit, ESC to resume the function.
    Settings are “Turn OFF” to disable this feature, meaning Asynchronous 
    functions will continue indefinitely until ESC is pressed, or a selectio\
    n of 
    delay in seconds or minutes.
    Default is “Turn OFF.”
    7.5. Target Tolerance
    Used to define the acceptable difference in capacity during the copy function, 
    using one of three settings:
    No Limit: Target capacity will not be considered before proceeding.
    100% Same: Target capacity will be considered suitable only if the capacity is 
    identical to the source.
    Allow tolerance: Selecting this option offers two additional choices: Set UP 
    Limit allows either “No Limit” or a percentage greater than the so\
    urce capac -
    ity. Set LOW Limit allows either “No Limit” or a percentage less than\
     the 
    source capacity.
    The Target Tolerance menu item displays the current setting in parentheses. 
    Default is “No Limit.”
    NOTE: The size of the file system on the source is always duplicated with all \
    contents. Target devices greater than or less than the source capacity will not 
    reflect any changes to correct the difference.
    The Duplicator always copies files in their original location. If a smal\
    ler target 
    is allowed, any files that occupy space on the source that doesnt exist\
     on the 
    target will cause the duplicate to fail.
    7.6. Asynchronous
    Enables or disables Asynchronous Mode during the copy function. When 
    enabled, the Copy, Compare, and Copy+Compare functions will work as 
    described by the Quick Start section of this User Guide. When disabled, \
    the 
    Copy, Compare, and Copy+Compare functions will work as described in the 
    Quick Start section of this User Guide in Direct Mode only.
    Default is “Enable.”
    7.7. Check Before Copy
    Enables or disables testing target media before proceeding with the Copy\
     
    function.
    Default is “Do Check” (enabled).
    7.8. Power Off Time Between Copy+Compare
    Determines the delay in seconds between the Copy and Compare functions 
    during Main Menu function 3. Copy+Compare.
    Default is 3 (seconds).
    7.9. Language
    Sets the language used by the firmwares LCD display. Choices are English 
    or Japanese.
    Default is English.
    7.10. Working Mode
    Determines the approximate rate at which the Duplicator will attempt to \
    copy 
    media. Faster settings may shorten copy time but result in higher failur\
    e 
    rates, slower settings will cause the process to take longer but will im\
    prove 
    the reliability of the copy.
    Default is “Normal Mode.” Choices are: Slowest, Slower, Normal, Faster, 
    Fastest.
    7.11. Set HDD Mode
    When enabled, all target devices will be required to be equal to or grea\
    ter 
    than the capacity of the source, overriding “LOW Limit” tolerance \

    before a media is counted as a FAIL. Expressed as a percentage of the 
    tested area. The Default setting is 0.
    Media Check uses Asynchronous Mode, meaning devices may be removed 
    once tested and new media may be inserted after the process begins.
    NOTE: NEVER remove a device while the LED is blinking.
    6.4. Quick Erase
    Erases all content on all target media, leaving the file system intact. \
    Quick 
    Erase only works on FAT16 or FAT32 file systems. Media formatted using 
    other file systems will fail, leaving the data intact. Works in Asynchronous 
    Mode, meaning media may be removed once erased and more may be 
    inserted later.
    NOTE: NEVER remove a device while the LED is blinking.
    6.5. Full Erase
    Erases all content on target media completely by overwriting all blocks \
    with 
    zeros, leaving the media unformatted when complete. Works in Asynchro-
    nous Mode, meaning media may be removed once erased and more may be 
    inserted later.
    NOTE: NEVER remove a device while the LED is blinking.
    6.6. DoD Erase
    Performs a 3-pass sanitization of all media blocks compliant with DoD 
    5220.22-M standards.
    6.7. System Update
    Performs a firmware update to the unit. Update procedure details to be 
    released with the update itself. Briefly, insert a media into the device contain -
    ing the binary firmware image, then press OK. When the process is com -
    plete, turn the unit completely off, wait five seconds, then turn the unit back 
    on.
    6.8. Calc. Checksum
    Calculates a checksum value for the  Copy Area function defined in the 
    Setup Menu.
    NOTE: This function is not to be used to validate copies. Media that have 
    identical content and structure may still have different checksums. Testing 
    media devices for accurate duplication should only be done using the Com\
     -
    pare function.
    Setup Menu
    7.1. Startup Menu
    Defines the function that will appear by default after power-on testing \
    is 
    completed. Any of the Main Menu functions may be selected.
    Default is 1. Copy.
    7.2. Copy Area
    Determines the method for copying from the source device to the target 
    devices: “Whole Media” copies the entire device, sector-by-sector \
    – without 
    any regard to the contents. “System and Files” copies only the con\
    tents of file 
    systems understood by the firmware: FAT16, FAT32, NTFS, ext2 or ext3. File 
    systems not recognized by the firmware will be copied using the “Whol\
    e 
    Media” method.
    Default is “System and Files.”
    7.3. Button Beep
    Enables or disables the unit sounding a “beep” noise when buttons \
    are 
    pressed.
    7.4. Asyn Hold Time
    During operations that use Asynchronous Mode, this setting determines the 
    delay after all media have been removed before confirming that an operat\
    ion 
    is complete. Once that delay has been expired, the operation will halt a\
    nd the 
    display will request confirmation to exit the function. Press OK to conf\
    irm the 
    exit, ESC to resume the function.
    Settings are “Turn OFF” to disable this feature, meaning Asynchronous 
    functions will continue indefinitely until ESC is pressed, or a selectio\
    n of 
    delay in seconds or minutes.
    Default is “Turn OFF.”
    7.5. Target Tolerance
    Used to define the acceptable difference in capacity during the copy function, 
    using one of three settings:
    No Limit: Target capacity will not be considered before proceeding.
    100% Same: Target capacity will be considered suitable only if the capacity is 
    identical to the source.
    Allow tolerance: Selecting this option offers two additional choices: Set UP 
    Limit allows either “No Limit” or a percentage greater than the so\
    urce capac -
    ity. Set LOW Limit allows either “No Limit” or a percentage less than\
     the 
    source capacity.
    The Target Tolerance menu item displays the current setting in parentheses. 
    Default is “No Limit.”
    NOTE: The size of the file system on the source is always duplicated with all \
    contents. Target devices greater than or less than the source capacity will not 
    reflect any changes to correct the difference.
    The Duplicator always copies files in their original location. If a smal\
    ler target 
    is allowed, any files that occupy space on the source that doesnt exist\
     on the 
    target will cause the duplicate to fail.
    7.6. Asynchronous
    Enables or disables Asynchronous Mode during the copy function. When 
    enabled, the Copy, Compare, and Copy+Compare functions will work as 
    described by the Quick Start section of this User Guide. When disabled, \
    the 
    Copy, Compare, and Copy+Compare functions will work as described in the 
    Quick Start section of this User Guide in Direct Mode only.
    Default is “Enable.”
    7.7. Check Before Copy
    Enables or disables testing target media before proceeding with the Copy\
     
    function.
    Default is “Do Check” (enabled).
    7.8. Power Off Time Between Copy+Compare
    Determines the delay in seconds between the Copy and Compare functions 
    during Main Menu function 3. Copy+Compare.
    Default is 3 (seconds).
    7.9. Language
    Sets the language used by the firmwares LCD display. Choices are English 
    or Japanese.
    Default is English.
    7.10. Working Mode
    Determines the approximate rate at which the Duplicator will attempt to \
    copy 
    media. Faster settings may shorten copy time but result in higher failur\
    e 
    rates, slower settings will cause the process to take longer but will im\
    prove 
    the reliability of the copy.
    Default is “Normal Mode.” Choices are: Slowest, Slower, Normal, Faster, 
    Fastest.
    7.11. Set HDD Mode
    When enabled, all target devices will be required to be equal to or grea\
    ter 
    than the capacity of the source, overriding “LOW Limit” tolerance \
    settings 
    (see 7.5. Target Tolerance).
    7.12. Restore Default
    Returns all settings to their factory default values.

    Compatibility
    Duplicator is USB 2.0 compliant. Works with USB 3.0 devices at 480Mb/s.
    Works with the following devices:
    - USB Flash media drive
    - USB External hard disk
    - Addonics Pocket Ultra DigiDrive (including PCMCIA storage devices or 
      flash storage with the Addonics adapters)
    - Addonics Pocket eSATA/USB DigiDrive
    - Addonics Pocket Micro SATA UDD
    - Addonics Diamond or Ruby ExDrive, with or without Cipher feature, using \
      the Addonics USB 3.0 to eSATAp Adapter
    - Any of the above USB storage devices used with the Addonics CipherUSB
    NOTE: Using an external power supply with storage devices that support 
    external power is strongly recommended.
    Using the Duplicator with Adapters not supplied by Addonics is not 
    supported or recommended.
    Duplicating source media encrypted using the Addonics Cipher family of 
    products can be done without using the Cipher hardware – which will r\
    esult 
    in encrypted duplicates. This requires the Setup option Copy Area to be set 
    to “Whole Media.”
    The Duplicator can copy media formatted as FAT16, FAT32, NTFS, ext2 or 
    ext3 with the Setup option Copy Area  set to “System and Files.” Copying 
    NTFS media this way requires target media that is larger in capacity tha\
    n the 
    source.
    Quick Start
    1. Insert the source device into the source slot, and any target devices\
     
        desired.
    2. Turn on the unit.
    3. After a self-diagnostic, the unit will scan all ports and start on the C\
    opy 
        function.
    4. Press OK to begin.
    5. The Duplicator can operate in Asynchronous mode if it is able to contain 
    all of the source data in internal memory – about 200MB. Otherwise it\
     will 
        operate in Direct mode.
    For Direct mode:
      Once the Duplicator has analyzed the source device, it will scan for 
    suitable target devices. While examining connected targets, the ports g\
    reen 
    LED will blink. If the device is suitable, the green LED will glow. If the device 
    is unsuitable, the red LED will glow. The Display will show how many targets 
    are ready.
      Press OK once all of the targets are ready to begin copying. The 
    green LEDs will blink to indicate activity. Once copying is complete for a 
    target, the green LED will glow to indicate copy succeeded or the red LE\
    D 
    will glow to indicate the copy failed.
    For Asynchronous mode (default):
      Once the Duplicator has analyzed the source device, it will scan for 
    suitable target devices. While examining a target device, the green LED \
    will 
    blink. If a target device is suitable, the green LED will continue to bl\
    ink and 
    the copy process will begin immediately. When a target is finished, the green 
    LED will glow to indicate the copy succeeded, or the red LED will glow t\
    o 
    indicate the copy failed.
      Once a target devices port LED is glowing green or red, the device 
    may be removed and another inserted in its place. The new device will be 
    examined and copying will proceed. The LCD Display will show an ongoing 
    tally of devices that passed and failed the copy process.
    Duplicator Functions
    The Duplicator menu has three sections: Main Menu, and Utility and Setup\
     
    which are accessed as Main Menu Items 6 and 7.
    Main Menu
    1. Copy
    Performs the Copy process as described in the Quick Start section. When \
    the Copy function is on the menu display, it also shows the current setting for 
    the Copy Area function in the Setup Menu: (Data) for the “System and Files”\
     
    setting, or (Whole) for the “Whole Media” setting. For details, \
    see 7.2. Copy 
    Area.
    2. Compare
    Performs a full comparison between the target devices and the source 
    device.
    3. Copy+Compare
    Performs both the Copy and Compare functions in a single step. Between 
    the two functions the devices are all powered down for a duration set by\
     the 
    Power Off Time Between Copy+Compare function in the Setup menu. 
    Copy+Compare does not display the Copy Area setting.
    4. Capacity Check
    Performs a basic test on target devices to determine if they are functio\
    ning 
    properly. Does not report the status of the source device. Displays pass and 
    fail counts, and number of drives remaining to test under “Capacity”\
     when in 
    progress. When complete, each target port will show a green or red LED 
    glowing to indicate which devices pass or fail. Using the arrow keys wil\
    l show 
    the status or capacity of each device.
    Capacity Check does work in Asynchronous mode, so once its been 
    activated, target devices can be removed when finished and more target 
    devices can be inserted.
    NOTE: NEVER remove a device while the LED is blinking.
    5. In formation
    The Information function is actually a sub-menu with two functions:
    5.1. USB Info.
    Pressing OK for USB info will begin with a port number (beginning with \
    [1], 
    which is the SOURCE port). Use the arrow buttons to move between ports.\
     
    As each port is selected, the unit will read a device if present, and re\
    port on 
    the capacity and file system found on that port.
    5.2. System Info.
    Displays the type of duplicator (by source and target count, for exampl\
    e 1-7) 
    and the firmware version.
    Utility Menu
    6.1. Do Format
    Formats the target media using the following sub-options:
    6.1.1. Auto Format
    The Duplicator will format the media using the following rules:
    If the media is formatted using one partition of either FAT16 or FAT32, the 
    unit will simply reformat the media the same way.
    If the media is not formatted using a FAT file system, it will be formatted as 
    FAT16 if the capacity is under 2GB, or FAT32 if greater than 2TB.
    6.1.2. FAT Format
    The Duplicator will format the media as FAT16.
    6.1.3. FAT32 Format
    The Duplicator will format the media as FAT32.
    Having chosen one of the three sub-options, press OK once more to confir\
    m 
    the choice or ESC to cancel.
    NOTE: NEVER remove a device while the LED is blinking.
    6.2. Measure Speed
    Estimates the read and write speed of the target media. After selecting this 
    function, the port number in use will appear on the LCD, beginning with \
    Port 
    2 (the first target). Press the arrow buttons to switch between target\
    s. Once a 
    target is detected, the test will continue to run without accepting any \
    more 
    input until it is complete, then provide a short report on the read and \
    write 
    speed for the media found.
    NOTE: NEVER remove a device while the LED is blinking.
    6.3. Media Check
    Performs a full examination of all space on target media using the follo\
    wing 
    sub-options:
    6.3.1. H3 Safe
    Performs a read-only examination of media, without harming any data.
    6.3.2. H5 R/W
    Performs a destructive read-write examination of media.
    6.3.3. Setup Range
    This option determines how much of the media is examined by the Media 
    Check, expressed as a percentage. This percentage is shown in the Media 
    Check menu for the Safe and R/W options. Default setting is 100%.
    6.3.4. Set Error Limit
    This option determines how much of the tested media may show an error 
    before a media is counted as a FAIL. Expressed as a percentage of the 
    tested area. The Default setting is 0.
    Media Check uses Asynchronous Mode, meaning devices may be removed 
    once tested and new media may be inserted after the process begins.
    NOTE: NEVER remove a device while the LED is blinking.
    6.4. Quick Erase
    Erases all content on all target media, leaving the file system intact. \
    Quick 
    Erase only works on FAT16 or FAT32 file systems. Media formatted using 
    other file systems will fail, leaving the data intact. Works in Asynchronous 
    Mode, meaning media may be removed once erased and more may be 
    inserted later.
    NOTE: NEVER remove a device while the LED is blinking.
    6.5. Full Erase
    Erases all content on target media completely by overwriting all blocks \
    with 
    zeros, leaving the media unformatted when complete. Works in Asynchro-
    nous Mode, meaning media may be removed once erased and more may be 
    inserted later.
    NOTE: NEVER remove a device while the LED is blinking.
    6.6. DoD Erase
    Performs a 3-pass sanitization of all media blocks compliant with DoD 
    5220.22-M standards.
    6.7. System Update
    Performs a firmware update to the unit. Update procedure details to be 
    released with the update itself. Briefly, insert a media into the device contain -
    ing the binary firmware image, then press OK. When the process is com -
    plete, turn the unit completely off, wait five seconds, then turn the unit back 
    on.
    6.8. Calc. Checksum
    Calculates a checksum value for the  Copy Area function defined in the 
    Setup Menu.
    NOTE: This function is not to be used to validate copies. Media that have 
    identical content and structure may still have different checksums. Testing 
    media devices for accurate duplication should only be done using the Com\
     -
    pare function.
    Setup Menu
    7.1. Startup Menu
    Defines the function that will appear by default after power-on testing \
    is 
    completed. Any of the Main Menu functions may be selected.
    Default is 1. Copy.

    Determines the method for copying from the source device to the target 
    devices: “Whole Media” copies the entire device, sector-by-sector \
    – without 
    any regard to the contents. “System and Files” copies only the con\
    tents of file 
    systems understood by the firmware: FAT16, FAT32, NTFS, ext2 or ext3. File 
    systems not recognized by the firmware will be copied using the “Whol\
    e 
    Media” method.
    Default is “System and Files.”
    7.3. Button Beep
    Enables or disables the unit sounding a “beep” noise when buttons \
    are 
    pressed.
    7.4. Asyn Hold Time
    During operations that use Asynchronous Mode, this setting determines the 
    delay after all media have been removed before confirming that an operat\
    ion 
    is complete. Once that delay has been expired, the operation will halt a\
    nd the 
    display will request confirmation to exit the function. Press OK to conf\
    irm the 
    exit, ESC to resume the function.
    Settings are “Turn OFF” to disable this feature, meaning Asynchronous 
    functions will continue indefinitely until ESC is pressed, or a selectio\
    n of 
    delay in seconds or minutes.
    Default is “Turn OFF.”
    7.5. Target Tolerance
    Used to define the acceptable difference in capacity during the copy function, 
    using one of three settings:
    No Limit: Target capacity will not be considered before proceeding.
    100% Same: Target capacity will be considered suitable only if the capacity is 
    identical to the source.
    Allow tolerance: Selecting this option offers two additional choices: Set UP 
    Limit allows either “No Limit” or a percentage greater than the so\
    urce capac -
    ity. Set LOW Limit allows either “No Limit” or a percentage less than\

    the capacity and file system found on that port.
    5.2. System Info.
    Displays the type of duplicator (by source and target count, for exampl\
    e 1-7) 
    and the firmware version.
    Utility Menu
    6.1. Do Format
    Formats the target media using the following sub-options:
    6.1.1. Auto Format
    The Duplicator will format the media using the following rules:
    If the media is formatted using one partition of either FAT16 or FAT32, the 
    unit will simply reformat the media the same way.
    If the media is not formatted using a FAT file system, it will be formatted as 
    FAT16 if the capacity is under 2GB, or FAT32 if greater than 2TB.
    6.1.2. FAT Format
    The Duplicator will format the media as FAT16.
    6.1.3. FAT32 Format
    The Duplicator will format the media as FAT32.
    Having chosen one of the three sub-options, press OK once more to confir\
    m 
    the choice or ESC to cancel.
    NOTE: NEVER remove a device while the LED is blinking.
    6.2. Measure Speed
    Estimates the read and write speed of the target media. After selecting this 
    function, the port number in use will appear on the LCD, beginning with \
    Port 
    2 (the first target). Press the arrow buttons to switch between target\
    s. Once a 
    target is detected, the test will continue to run without accepting any \
    more 
    input until it is complete, then provide a short report on the read and \
    write 
    speed for the media found.
    NOTE: NEVER remove a device while the LED is blinking.
    6.3. Media Check
    Performs a full examination of all space on target media using the follo\
    wing 
    sub-options:
    6.3.1. H3 Safe
    Performs a read-only examination of media, without harming any data.
    6.3.2. H5 R/W
    Performs a destructive read-write examination of media.
    6.3.3. Setup Range
    This option determines how much of the media is examined by the Media 
    Check, expressed as a percentage. This percentage is shown in the Media 
    Check menu for the Safe and R/W options. Default setting is 100%.
    6.3.4. Set Error Limit
    This option determines how much of the tested media may show an error 
    before a media is counted as a FAIL. Expressed as a percentage of the 
    tested area. The Default setting is 0.
    Media Check uses Asynchronous Mode, meaning devices may be removed 
    once tested and new media may be inserted after the process begins.
    NOTE: NEVER remove a device while the LED is blinking.
    6.4. Quick Erase
    Erases all content on all target media, leaving the file system intact. \
    Quick 
    Erase only works on FAT16 or FAT32 file systems. Media formatted using 
    other file systems will fail, leaving the data intact. Works in Asynchronous 
    Mode, meaning media may be removed once erased and more may be 
    inserted later.
    NOTE: NEVER remove a device while the LED is blinking.
    6.5. Full Erase
    Erases all content on target media completely by overwriting all blocks \
    with 
    zeros, leaving the media unformatted when complete. Works in Asynchro-
    nous Mode, meaning media may be removed once erased and more may be 
    inserted later.
    NOTE: NEVER remove a device while the LED is blinking.
    6.6. DoD Erase
    Performs a 3-pass sanitization of all media blocks compliant with DoD 
    5220.22-M standards.
    6.7. System Update
    Performs a firmware update to the unit. Update procedure details to be 
    released with the update itself. Briefly, insert a media into the device contain -
    ing the binary firmware image, then press OK. When the process is com -
    plete, turn the unit completely off, wait five seconds, then turn the unit back 
    on.
    6.8. Calc. Checksum
    Calculates a checksum value for the  Copy Area function defined in the 
    Setup Menu.
    NOTE: This function is not to be used to validate copies. Media that have 
    identical content and structure may still have different checksums. Testing 
    media devices for accurate duplication should only be done using the Com\
     -
    pare function.
    Setup Menu
    7.1. Startup Menu
    Defines the function that will appear by default after power-on testing \
    is 
    completed. Any of the Main Menu functions may be selected.
    Default is 1. Copy.
    7.2. Copy Area
    Determines the method for copying from the source device to the target 
    devices: “Whole Media” copies the entire device, sector-by-sector \
    – without 
    any regard to the contents. “System and Files” copies only the con\
    tents of file 
    systems understood by the firmware: FAT16, FAT32, NTFS, ext2 or ext3. File 
    systems not recognized by the firmware will be copied using the “Whol\
    e 
    Media” method.
    Default is “System and Files.”
    7.3. Button Beep
    Enables or disables the unit sounding a “beep” noise when buttons \
    are 
    pressed.
    7.4. Asyn Hold Time
    During operations that use Asynchronous Mode, this setting determines the 
    delay after all media have been removed before confirming that an operat\
    ion 
    is complete. Once that delay has been expired, the operation will halt a\
    nd the 
    display will request confirmation to exit the function. Press OK to conf\
    irm the 
    exit, ESC to resume the function.
    Settings are “Turn OFF” to disable this feature, meaning Asynchronous 
    functions will continue indefinitely until ESC is pressed, or a selectio\
    n of 
    delay in seconds or minutes.
    Default is “Turn OFF.”
    7.5. Target Tolerance
    Used to define the acceptable difference in capacity during the copy function, 
    using one of three settings:
    No Limit: Target capacity will not be considered before proceeding.
    100% Same: Target capacity will be considered suitable only if the capacity is 
    identical to the source.
    Allow tolerance: Selecting this option offers two additional choices: Set UP 
    Limit allows either “No Limit” or a percentage greater than the so\
    urce capac -
    ity. Set LOW Limit allows either “No Limit” or a percentage less than\
     the 
    source capacity.
    The Target Tolerance menu item displays the current setting in parentheses. 
    Default is “No Limit.”
    NOTE: The size of the file system on the source is always duplicated with all \
    contents. Target devices greater than or less than the source capacity will not 
    reflect any changes to correct the difference.
    The Duplicator always copies files in their original location. If a smal\
    ler target 
    is allowed, any files that occupy space on the source that doesnt exist\
     on the 
    target will cause the duplicate to fail.
    7.6. Asynchronous
    Enables or disables Asynchronous Mode during the copy function. When 
    enabled, the Copy, Compare, and Copy+Compare functions will work as 
    described by the Quick Start section of this User Guide. When disabled, \
    the 
    Copy, Compare, and Copy+Compare functions will work as described in the 
    Quick Start section of this User Guide in Direct Mode only.
    Default is “Enable.”
    7.7. Check Before Copy
    Enables or disables testing target media before proceeding with the Copy\
     
    function.
    Default is “Do Check” (enabled).
    7.8. Power Off Time Between Copy+Compare
    Determines the delay in seconds between the Copy and Compare functions 
    during Main Menu function 3. Copy+Compare.
    Default is 3 (seconds).
    7.9. Language
    Sets the language used by the firmwares LCD display. Choices are English 
    or Japanese.
    Default is English.
    7.10. Working Mode
    Determines the approximate rate at which the Duplicator will attempt to \
    copy 
    media. Faster settings may shorten copy time but result in higher failur\
    e 
    rates, slower settings will cause the process to take longer but will im\
    prove 
    the reliability of the copy.
    Default is “Normal Mode.” Choices are: Slowest, Slower, Normal, Faster, 
    Fastest.
    7.11. Set HDD Mode
    When enabled, all target devices will be required to be equal to or grea\
    ter 
    than the capacity of the source, overriding “LOW Limit” tolerance \
    settings 
    (see 7.5. Target Tolerance).
    7.12. Restore Default
    Returns all settings to their factory default values.
