www.aleratec.com55 Stand-Alone D\fplicat\Bor SA: T\ftorials Disadvantage: ▪The loading time may have an impact on overall duplication time for small duplication jobs. ▪The Master Disc will be loaded to the reserve partition in the Hard Drive temporarily until a new master is loaded and overrides the previous image. In comparing this duplication mode with the traditional “Duplication from Hard Drive” process, it offers the user more simplicity. By selecting the “Load and Copy” mode via one simple touch, all the necessary tasks will be automated for you and loaded on to the “Reserved” partition. You can rename the data on the “Reserved” partition and place it in a standard partition if you wish to keep it. (This must be done prior to loading a new master through “Load and Copy)”. By default, the duplication mode is set to “Auto”. This will prompt you to choose between one of the duplication modes when you enter any of the following functions: “Copy”, “Test”, “Test + Copy”, and “Copy + Compare”. However, if you prefer not to be prompted each time, you can always go to “14. Setup” and select sub-menu 9 and manually reset it. To do so, preform the following steps: 1. Turn on the duplicator. After the bootup is complete, you will see the following display: 2. Press the UP or DOWN button consecutively until you see following display: 3. Press ENT button once.

Compare This menu will guide you to perform a bit-by-bit comparison between the Master Reading Source and all the copied discs inside the Writer Tray. The purpose of the Compare function is to ensure that all of your copies have exactly same information as your Master Reading Source.
www.aleratec.com60 Men\f Overview 6. Test + Copy This menu will guide you to perform a simulation of the copying process. If everything passes the simulation, the copying process will be performed. If there’s an error encountered during the simulation, an error message will be displayed and the copying process will not be initiated. 7. Copy + Compare This menu will guide you to make copies and automatically perform a bit-by- bit comparison between the Master Reading Source and all the copied discs inside the Writer Tray. 8. Select Burn Speed This menu will guide you to adjust the duplication speed in various duplication modes. 9. Select Source This menu will guide you to set the Master Reading Source. 10. Erase This menu will guide you to erase your rewriteable discs in the Writer Tray. There are two options to erase your rewriteable discs: a. Full Erase: It will erase the entire disc which will make it impossible to be recovered. b. Quick Erase: It will erase the index of the rewriteable disc, not the data section. 11.

www.aleratec.com61 Men\f Overview 13. Mix Audio Tracks This menu will guide you through the “Mix Audio Tracks” feature. This feature helps you combine audio tracks from various CDs into a single customize audio CD. 14. Setup 14.1 Language This setting allows you to choose which language you prefer to navigate this duplicator. Current supported languages are Spanish, and English. 14.2 Auto Start This setting allows you to choose Auto, Full or Off. When full is selected this feature will allow the duplicator to copy automatically once your Master Disc and all of the Writer Trays of the duplicator are filled with recordable media. When it is Off, the copy process requires you to press ENT button to confirm the duplication. If , for example, your duplicator has detected 3 blank discs on a 4 tar get or higher duplicator and doesn’t detect any additional blank discs for 30 seconds, the duplication will be started automatically. In order for this feature to take effect, you need to be inside the operation menu such as COPY, TEST, TEST+COPY, COPY+COMPARE, etc. 14.3 Read Error Skip Normally, when the duplicator encounters a reading error while reading your Master Disc, all the duplication will be aborted and all the recordable media will be ruined. However, if you believe that your Master Disc has a small, insignificant error due to physical damages, you can enable the setting to allow the duplicator to skip any read error* it has encountered. *This function will not fix the error; it will only skip it to make the rest of the data readable.
www.aleratec.com62 Men\f Overview 14. Setup - continued 14.4 CD Writing Mode This setting allows you to select which mode you can duplicate a CD with. There are two different modes, “Disc at Once” and “Track at Once”. Unless you understand completely what they mean, we strongly suggest you to set it as “Disc at Once”. 14.5 Max Audio, VCD & CDG Speed This setting allows you to adjust the maximum duplication speed for Audio and Video CD. Audio CD’s and Video CD’s do not have internal error checking capability, so duplicating at too high a speed may cause frequent errors. 14.6 Buzzer This setting allows you to choose whether you want to hear a beep when you press a button or when a task has been completed. 14.7 Startup Menu This setting allows you to choose which menu you see first when the duplicator is powered on. 14.8 Screen Saver This setting allows you to enable the Screen Saver feature or not. By enabling this feature, a screen saver will be displayed when your duplicator has been idle for a long period of time. 14.9 Duplication Mode To simplify the Hard Drive loading and copying process a feature called “Load and Copy”, and “On the Fly” is introduced under the category “Duplication Mode”. This feature reduces the “Duplication from Hard Drive” process to a single step! 14.10 Counter This option allows you to enable/disable the Counter feature by turning this feature ON or OFF. This feature will notify you how many discs have been copied and how many discs are left to complete your project.
www.aleratec.com63 Men\f Overview 14.11 DVD+R High Compatibility Mode This feature allows you to enable/disable the DVD+R High Compatibility Mode feature by turning this 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. This process will increase the amount of time required to duplicate your disc(s). 14.12 ISRC This option allows you to enable/disable copying ISRC code of the Audio CD. ISRC is the serial# of the audio tracks that uniquely identifies the song in that audio track. This ISRC code is commonly found in commercial Audio CD and rarely seen on the home made Audio CDs. By enabling this feature, the duplication performance will be lowered. 14.13 Disable Drives This feature allows you to disable certain drives/trays when those drives/ trays are producing high failure rates or not functioning properly. 14.14 USB Connection This feature allows you to turn on/off the USB port on the back of your duplicator. This option will allow a Writer on the duplicator to be controlled by a PC. This feature will only be visible if the supported USB Connection were installed. *Please note that system will be restarted when this setting is changed. 14.15 Overburn (CDs Only) This feature allows you to burn a few MB more than the standard capacity of the target CD (e.g. 75 minutes of recording time vs. 74 minutes). The default setting is OFF. 15. Utilities 15.1 Disc Info This feature will identify your blank recordable Media’s format, capacity, manufacture ID as well as the Media’s certified writing speed. This function (Disc Info) can be found in the “Utility” menu. Note: Thi\b feature only a\bpplie\b to media in t\bhe recording tray\b.\b
www.aleratec.com64 Men\f Overview 15. Utilities - continued 15.2 Prescan This feature allows you to scan and detect any bad sectors existing in the Master Disc. It is recommended that you perform a Prescan before starting the duplication task for all Master Discs. Approximately 50% of failures reported by the duplicator are caused by errors in the Master Disc which the Reader couldn’t overcome. When this kind of failure occurs, it tends to waste all of your blank recordable medias. 15.3 System Info By entering this menu, you will be able to see the many specification of your duplicator such as the firmware version, CPU type, RAM capacity. You can check the specifications by pressing UP or DOWN button. 15.4 Device Info By entering this menu, you will be able to see the information for devices built inside your duplicator. That information includes but limited to manufacture, model number, etc. 15.5 Load Default This function will reset all of the options back to manufacture’s default. You can perform this function if your duplicator is acting abnormal. You need to perform “Shutdown” and restart the system in order for this to take effect. 15.6 Update Firmware This function will update the software of your duplicator. To update, you need to insert manufacture Certified Update CD into the Reader and select this function by pressing ENT button. We strongly suggest you to not upgrade your duplicator’s firmware unless your duplicator is getting unstable. 15.7 Save This function will save all the settings you’ve modified since last time the system is booted.
