    Precautions
    Before installing your DVD/CD Copy Tower, please read the following.
    Installation
    Avoid placing the DVD/CD Copy Tower in a location subject to:
    • High humidity
    •  High temperature
    •  Excessive dust
    •  Mechanical vibration
    •  Direct sunlight
    •  Electromagnetic radiation
    Power
    This product has a manually switchable power supply. Make sure 
    that the power supply is set to the proper voltage for your region.
    Input Voltage Selection
    There is a voltage selection switch on the back of the unit that can be set for 
    input power of 115 VAC (the default setting) or 230 VAC. Be sure it is set 
    correctly for the input voltage you will be using.
    Operation
    Do not move the DVD/CD Copy Tower during operation. This may cause it 
    to malfunction during operations.
    Avoid exposing the duplicator to sudden changes in temperature as 
    condensation may form on the lens inside the duplicator. Operating the 
    duplicator immediately after a sudden increase in temperature may result in 
    a malfunction during playback or writing operations.
    Note: The DVD/CD Copy Tower must never be cleaned with a lens 
    cleaning kit!
    Transportation
    Keep the original packing materials for future moving or shipping of the 
    DVD/CD Copy Tower.

    tray.

    Using the DVD/CD Copy Tower
    Main Menu
    Functions are selected with the arrow buttons ( or).  The numbers 
    correspond to the Function listing in the previous section.
    Copy 
    During the duplication process, data will be simultaneously written to all 
    blank discs loaded in the DVD/CD Copy Tower. Please make sure the 
    source disc is placed in the Source Drive.
    1.  Place blank discs into the DVD/CD Recorders as needed; when the 
    DVD/CD Recorders detect the discs are present, press the  OK button, 
    and the duplicator will start copying.
    2.  The LCD will display the status of the copying process.
    3.  When Copy is finished, discs which have passed will be ejected 
    automatically and failed discs will remain in the DVD Recorders. Press 
    the OK button to eject any failed discs.
     
    Note: DVD-RW discs which already contain data can also be used as blanks 
    in the DVD/CD Copy Tower. Any data stored on DVD-RW discs will be 
    automatically erased before copying new data. Be sure you do not want data 
    on DVD±RW discs inserted as blanks as any DVD±RW discs inserted in the 
    DVD-Recorders to be used as blank media will automatically be erased, and 
    then the content from the source DVD will be recorded on them.

    Main Menu
    Test 
    This function is a test process that simulates data being written to the 
    blank disc, without actually burning a DVD or CD. When the test process 
    is complete, the discs will remain blank. For ±RW discs that contain data, 
    “Test” will quick erase all old data before simulation. Therefore, never 
    perform “Test” on ±RW discs that contain important data.
    1.  Using the arrow buttons (or) select “Test”. Press the OK button to 
    start the disc simulation, or press  ESC to exit. Pressing ESC before the 
    simulation is complete will not affect the disc and they will still remain 
    blank.
    2.  For -RW discs that contain data, Test will perform a Quick Erase before 
    the actual testing. Thus, never run Test on -RW discs that contain 
    important data.
     
    3. The LCD will display the status of the erasing and testing of the DVD.
    4.  When the process is completed, the LCD will display the status.
