    Copy + Compare
    During the duplication process, data will be simultaneously written to all 
    blank discs loaded in the DVD/CD Copy Tower. The process will then 
    compare the data on the source disc to the target discs after disc copy. 
    Please make sure the source disc is placed in the Source Drive.
    1. Place blank discs into the DVD/CD Recorders as needed. After the 
    DVD/CD Recorders detect the discs are present, use the arrow buttons 
    (or) to select “Copy + Compare”. 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.

    Set Burn Speed 
    This setting controls the writing speed of the DVD Recorders when 
    burning DVDs. The default setting is “Auto”, which will use the highest 
    writing speed of the recorders for the blank media being used. Sometimes 
    “Maximum” writing speed causes a high failure rate due to poor DVD 
    quality or unstable DVD writing due to high speed. Lowering the writing 
    speed will increase the probability of making successful copies.
    1. Using the arrow buttons (or) select “Set Burn Speed” then press 
    the OK button to change the setting, or  ESC to exit.
     
    2. Use the arrow buttons (or) to select the desired speed for burning 
    CDs, ie 40x, then press the  OK button to save your setting.
     
     
     
     
    3.  Next, you will be promted to set the speeds for Audio CDs, DVDs, and 
    DVD DL. Use the arrow keys (or) to set the desired speeds, then 
    press the OK button to save your setting.
