each card slot and the built in LC display show the progress of the copy operation and indicate if
any errors have occurred. In stand alone mode, the IQ CopyStation is controlled by three buttons
below the LC display. The functions of the buttons, which are context dependent, are shown on the
LC display. To initiate the copying process, insert a flash memory card with the data to be copied
into the master slot and choose the required copying program using the three buttons. The
contents of the master memory card can be copied in parallel to up to 20 memory cards.
In host-based mode, the IQ CopyStation is connected through USB 2.0 to a PC with Windows XP

functions and can control up to 32 IQ CopyStation simultaneously. As in stand alone mode, the IQ
CopyStation must be connected to the external power supply.
