    7.1	Startup	Menu	
    Startup Menu allows you to select which function displays first when the USB 
    Duplicator is turned on. 
    This function selects the menu item that will be the first item shown on the 
    display when you turn on the duplicator. The default setting is Copy.

    displayed on the LCD screen. Press OK. 
    2. Use the UP or Down arrow to scroll through the Setup options until Startup 
    Menu is displayed on the LCD screen. 
    7.2	Copy	Area
    This function supports the selection of Quick Copy or Copy whole area of the 
    source.
    7.2.1 Only Data area – Quick Copy
     If the controller system can verify FAT 16, 32, NTFS, Linux Ext 2, Ext 
    3 format for the source, the system will copy just the data area when 
    this function is selected. If it cannot verify the format, the system will 
    automatically copy the whole area of the source. For example, if a 2GB 
    source is FAT 32 and it has 50MB of data, the system will copy only the 
    50MB of data. 
    7.2.2 Whole area – Controller will copy whole area of the source.
     If the source is not FAT 16, 32, NTFS, Linux Ext 2, Ext 3 format, the 
    system will copy the entire media, even the blank area. When this function 
    is selected, Quick Copy will not be used. The copy process takes longer.

    7.4	Asyn	Hold	 Time
    This function allows you to set the time to exit Asynchronous Copying 
    when you pull all the USB flash drives out of the duplicator. The default 
    setting is 30 seconds. If after 30 seconds no new drives are plugged into 
    the USB Duplicator the LCD will ask to exit Asynchronous or to stay in 
    Asynchronous mode. Press OK to exit Asynchronous Copying or press 
    ESC to keep this status. 
    To change the default setting for Asyn Hold Time use the following 
    procedure:
    1. Use the UP or DOWN arrow to scroll through the menu until Setup is 
    displayed on the LCD screen. Press the OK button to select. 
    2. Use the UP or Down arrow to scroll through the Setup options until 
    Asyn Hold Time is displayed on the LCD screen. Press OK.
    3. Default setting is 30 seconds; press the arrow keys to change. Press 
    ESC to exit.
    7.5	Ignore	Size
    To make sure the FAT table of each flash drive was copied correctly all 
    source and target flash drives should be the same capacity. Each flash drive 
    potentially has some capacity difference due to the manufacturing process. 
    To ensure both the source and target flash drives are at the same capacity 
    you can set the capacity tolerance. This function is used to set the tolerance 
    % of flash capacity difference between source and targets.

    1. Use the UP or DOWN arrow to scroll through the menu until Setup is 
    displayed on the LCD screen. Press the OK button to select or press 
    ESC to go to the next setting. 
    2. Use the UP or Down arrow to scroll through the options until Ignore 
    Size is displayed on the LCD screen. Press OK.
    3. Default setting is 3% ; press the arrow keys to change and press OK.
    Note: Source flash drive and blank drives need to be the same capacity for two 
    reasons. 
    1. During the copy process the source flash drive “index sector” is copied to 
    the target flash drive. The index sector of a flash drive contains the drives 
    specifications, size and FAT table. Different drive sizes will have different index 
    sectors. For example if your are copying a 2G source flash drive to a 4G target 
    flash drive without performing data transforming, the index sector of the 2G 
    source would be copied to the 4G target flash drive effectively changing it to a 
    2G flash drive because of the copied 2G index sector. 
    2. If you allow the system to execute data transforming from a source flash 
    drive to multiple target flash drive in addition to longer copying time there is a 
    potential for data loss during data transforming.
    Note: If you need to copy a source flash to a target with a big capacity difference 
    there are two ways to avoid potential problems.
    1. Use the Setup function Ignore Size to increase the tolerance % of the source 
    and target.
    2. Turn the Setup function Analyze Source to OFF.
