Tutorial Guide: I. Make Disc-to-Disc Copies This process will copy your master disc into several blank discs simultaneously. However, due to its simultaneous nature, a good conditioned master disc and lower recording speed is necessary for high success rate and good quality duplications. When you turn on your duplicator, after it has booted up, you should see the following signifying your duplicator is ready. DUPLICATOR 1. COPY 5.00 1. Make sure the Master Reading Source is set to the READER.
Make sure it is located at the “Reader Port”. If not, then you need to press UP or DOWN navigation button to search for it. If your duplicator does not equip any Reader port, then please choose the device with the Writer Port number as your Master Reading Source. c. Press “>>” to submit your selection. 2. Go back to “COPY” Menu. a. Use UP or DOWN arrow button to navigate to the following screen: DUPLICATOR 1. COPY 5.00 3. Start the Copy Process. a.
b. Then. you will see the Counter Selection Menu like the following: Counter: No Counter c. The Counter Selection Menu will let you choose how many copies you want to make for your project. This Counter Selection feature will allow the duplicator to count the number of copies you’ve made and prompt you when the desired number of copies has been made. You can select “No Counter” if you prefer to copy continuously with no interruption.
To enter the number, you need to use UP or DOWN button to select the number for each digit and use “>>” or “<<” button to move the cursor position right or left, once you’ve finished, move the cursor to “OK” and press “>>”. For example, if I want to specify a counter value of 21 (twenty one). The 4-digit value would be “0021”. To input the desired quantity, please do the following: Make sure the cursor is located at the first position: Specify Counter: [X ] OK? i.
Now you shall see the following screen: Preparing... Waiting for Master OR Preparing... Waiting for Blanks If either one of the ABOVE 2 screens are displayed for more than 2 minutes, please check your Master Disc or Blank Discs for quality. d. Please allow 5-10 seconds for the duplicator to detect your Master Disc and Blank Discs as well.

Once the number of blank discs you inserted matches the number of discs detected on the screen. Then press “>>” (if you are not using Auto Start or wish to speed up the process) to confirm and the following Processing screen will appear. Processing... Please Wait If the number of blank discs you inserted doesn’t match the number of discs detected on the screen, please give 10-15 seconds for the duplicator to recognize all of your blank discs. e.
Once the duplication run is completed, the successful copies will be ejected and you shall see the following screen: PASS 7 FAIL 0( 7) O Waiting for Blanks - “PASS 7” indicates that you’ve just made 7 successful copies. - “FAIL 0” indicates that you have no failure in this run. - “7” indicates that you’ve successfully copied 7 copies so far. Next, refill more blank media to continue making more copies, or you can press “<<” to terminate your project and go back to the main menu.
Tutorial Guide: II. Make Hard Drive(HDD)-to-Disc Copies (For Duplicator w/ HDD installed) Copying from the Hard Drive is the best way to make copies. Overall, there are 4 benefits to copying from the Hard Drive: i. Performance – Duplicating from the Hard Drive will be able to boost the DVD duplication speed to 8x or above. ii. Stability – Duplicating from Hard Drive will stabilize the duplication process compared to the Disc to Disc duplicating. iii.
For example, if you have a 40GB Hard Drive, then you can calculate the number of DVD-5 format partitions by: 40 / 5 = 8. Since there is 1 partition reserved for the system use, you will have 7 partitions to use. Or you can calculate the number of DVD-9 format partitions by: 40 / 9 = 4.17. Since you cannot use an incomplete partition, there will be a total of 4 partitions available for a 40GB Hard Drive. Since 1 partition is reserved for system use; there will be 3 partitions available for use.
