Synchr\fn\fus and Asynchr\fn\fus
The 1:11 USB Copy Cruiser SA supports two copying methods: 
• Synchronous
• Asynchronous
Sy\fchro\fous Copyi\fg
Synchronous Copying means that all flash drives begin copying together. 
Synchronous Copying is used when the source data is larger than the system 
buffer (256MB). 
You can check the size of the data source drive by inserting the source drive 
into the USB Duplicator and using the arrow keys to first select “Information”, 
then select “USB Info”.
Plug in one source and up to 11 target USB flash drives. The display will read 
out the number of USB flash drives that are ready for copying and the content 
size. When you have finished loading the target drives use the arrow keys to 
select “Copy” and then select OK. 
Asy\fchro\fous Copyi\fg
Asynchronous Copying is used when the data files are the same as or less than 
the systems buffer memory (256MB). If the source data content is less than 
the systems buffer memory you can copy flash drives continuously by taking 
out the drive which has finished copying, and replacing it with another blank. 
Asynchronous Copying will start immediately after loading the first target 
drive. 
When this process is used the source data is read into systems buffer first. You 
can check the size of the data source USB flash drive by inserting it into the 
USB Duplicator and using the arrow keys to first select “Information”, then 
select “USB Info”.
