Safety Precautions
Rackmount DVD/CD Duplicators are high-precision electronic devices. Do not use them
in any manner other than as specified in this manual. Please read this manual in its entirety
before you begin the installation procedure. Use of controls, adjustments, or performance
of procedures other than those specified herein may result in hazardous laser exposure.
To prevent fire or shock, do not expose the unit to moisture or rain.
To prevent electrical shock, do not attempt to disassemble the DVD/CD Duplicator. Refer
servicing to authorized personnel.
Rackmount DVD/CD Duplicator drives utilize a laser beam that can be harmful to your
eyes. Do not disassemble the cabinet or unit. Do not attempt to look through the front panel
or into the unit while the power is turned on.
Elevated Operating Ambient: If the unit is installed in a closed or multi-unit rack
assembly, the operating ambient temperature of the rack environment may be greater than
the room ambient temperature. Therefore, consideration should be given to installing the
equipment in an environment compatible with the maximum ambient temperature (Tma)
specified by the manufacturer.
Reduced Air Flow: Installation of the equipment in a rack should be such that the amount
of air flow required for safe operation of the equipment is not compromised.
Mechanical Loading: Mounting of the equipment in the rack should be such that a
hazardous condition is not achieved due to uneven mechanical loading.
Circuit Overloading: Consideration should be given to the connection of the equipment
to the supply circuit and the effect that overloading of the circuits might have on over-
current protection and supply wiring. Appropriate consideration of equipment nameplate
ratings should be used when addressing this concern.
Reliable Earthing: Reliable earthing of rack-mounted equipment should be maintained.
Particular attention should be given to supply connections other than direct connections to
the branch circuit (e.g. use of power strips).
A user who changes or modifies the unit or operating procedures specified herein without
expressed written approval from the manufacturer will void user authority to operate the
equipment.
Specifications and features subject to change without notice or obligation.

copying quickly and accurately. The Rackmount DVD/CD Duplicator
automatically identifies source DVD formats and replicates the content as
required.
The Rackmount DVD/CD Duplicator performs continuous copying with no
waiting. It is an ideal DVD/CD Duplicator for the advanced user who requires
speed and accuracy.
You can set up your Rackmount DVD/CD Duplicator very quickly and easily.

Refer to Figure 6 on page 8.
3. Place a blank DVD/CD disc into the target drive, then press the
button to start copying.
(ENT)
Note: The type and capacity of the target disc must match that of the source
disc. For example, if the source disc is a CD-ROM, then the blank target disc
must be CD-R disc. If the source disc is a 4.7GB DVD-ROM disc, then the
blank target disc must be 4.7GB DVD±R. If the source disc is an 8.5GB
Dual Layer (DL) disc, then the blank target disc must be 8.5GB DVD±R DL.
When the copy operation is complete, the DVD/CD disc in the target drive
will be ejected automatically.
If you encounter an error message, please refer to Appendix B: “LCD
(FAQ)” on page 26 for troubleshooting information.
Notes:
ꢀWith the default setting, after a source disc has been successfully copied,
the DVD/CD Duplicator automatically ejects the target DVD/CD disc.
ꢀWith the default setting, if the copy operation fails, the failed target
DVD/CD disc remains in the target drive. To remove the failed DVD/CD
disc, press the eject button on the target drive and retrieve the disc. Press
the eject button again to retract the disc tray. You can change the default
settings by using the [Advanced Setup] menu. (For more information,

Chapter 3. Rackmount DVD/CD Duplicator Functions
The DVD/CD Duplicator features 12 functions: Copy, Test, Test &Copy, Verify,
Compare, Prescan, Disc Info, Select Source, Image, Edit Track, Setup, and
Advanced Setup. Each function is explained below.
1 Copy
The Copy function enables you to copy data from a source DVD or CD disc or a
partition on the internal hard disk drive. For more detailed information, refer to
Note: You can use DVD±RW discs that already contain data (i.e., DVD±RW
discs that are not fully blank) as target discs. However, the data stored on the
DVD±RW disc will be erased automatically before the new data is copied. No
special setting or procedure is required to erase the old data.
2 Test
The Test function simulates writing to the target disc. Discs will remain blank
after the test is complete. This function is recommended if you are using
unsupported media. This function enables the target drive to adjust its laser to the
proper intensity.
Note: Unexpected termination or cancellation of a test will not affect a target
DVD±R disc. The target DVD±R disc will remain blank and available for use.
However, DVD±RW discs that contain data may be damaged and the data they
contained may be rendered unrecoverable. It may be necessary to re-start the
DVD/CD Duplicator if the target drive hangs during a sudden termination.
3 Test & Copy
The Test & Copy function performs the test simulation and the copy process in one
step.
The copy process is performed only if the simulation detects no problems. If the
simulation fails, the copy process is cancelled.
4 Verify
The Verify function verifies that the target disc was written completely and with
no errors.

5 Compare
5 Compare
The Compare function compares data on the source and target discs after the copy
process is complete.
Note: This function works only with data discs.
6 Prescan
The Prescan function is performed on the source drive. This function scans the
disc to determine the maximum data/audio extraction speed.
7 Disc Info
The Disc Info function displays detailed information about the source disc,
including sessions, tracks, capacity, etc.
8 Select Source
The Select Source function is valid only with Duplicators that feature a factory-
installed hard disk drive. Please disregard this function.
9 Image
The Image menu, which consists of seven functions (9.1 through 9.7), is valid
only with Duplicators that feature a factory-installed hard disk drive. Please
disregard these functions.

10.1 CD to CD Edit
You can use this function to copy tracks from one or more discs and burn them to

3. What does the Target Drive Not Ready error message mean?
This message is displayed when the target drive is not ready to record
because, for example, a blank disc is dirty or scratched. Clean the target disc.
If it has been scratched, replace it with a new one.
Try using a different brand of disc to make sure that the failure is not related
to disc specifications or quality.
You may also encounter this problem if you try to use a disc that is not blank.
(The Rackmount DVD/CD Duplicator accepts only blank DVD/CD discs in
the target drive).
This message may also be displayed if the source disc is copy-protected. In
such a case, insert a disc that is not copy-protected. In accordance with
applicable laws, the Duplicator is designed to be unable to bypass any copy-
protection technology that may be encoded on the source disc.
If the error message continues to appear even with different target or source
discs, contact our Technical Support Group.
4. What does the Source Drive Not Ready message mean?
This message is displayed when the source (upper) drive is not ready to read
because, for example, the master disc is dirty or scratched. Clean the source
disc. If it is scratched, use a different source disc.
The message may also be displayed if the source disc is empty. Be sure to
insert a data/music/video disc in the source drive.
This message may also be displayed if the source disc is copy-protected. In
such a case, insert a disc that is not copy-protected. In accordance with
applicable laws, the duplicator unit is designed to be unable to bypass any

5. What does the Target Overflow message mean?
This message may be displayed when the source master CD disc contains
data/music in excess of the 700MB/80min disc capacity.
These types of discs are often called “Overburn” discs. Attempting to copy an
Overburn disc might generate read errors at the end of the disc, making the
disc unreadable in regular CD readers. Although this type of recording is not
recommended, this unit is capable of duplicating Overburn discs.

This message may be displayed when a source DVD disc is copy-protected,
such as a purchased/rented DVD movie/game. There is no Duplicator on the
market that can copy these discs, as doing so is a violation of Federal law.
Replace the source DVD disc with a non-copy protected disc.
This message may also be displayed if the Source DVD disc has a capacity
larger than the DVD disc in the target drive. Make sure that both source and
target discs have the same capacity. For example, if the source DVD disc is
an 8.5GB capacity disc, make sure the target DVD disc is also an 8.5GB disc.
6. What media is recommended?
For best results, brand-name media is recommended (for example: Memorex,
