Copying will automatically start again once all drives are closed, and have
blank media.
Bad discs will be rejected, and placed on the loader to the front of the drives.
To Copy from an image that is already on the hard disk, select the menu item
Start Copying
as above, but in response to the message
Read New Master?
Press the NO key. A list of the images stored on the hard disk will be
displayed on the LCD. Use the
/\
&
\/
keys to place the
>
cursor next to the
required image and press ENTER. Enter the quantity required, as above. The
drives will be loaded with blank media in the same way as above.
Comparing Discs
Comparing Discs allows a copy to be compared against a master image, to
make sure there are no detectable differences. This feature is not available for
Audio or Video tracks, because Audio/Video tracks do not have ECC (error
correction codes) to guarantee data integrity. Only data tracks have this.
Follow the Copying Discs section above, but instead of inserting blank media,
insert the copied discs.
Batch Mode
WARNING - VERY IMPORTANT
:
DO NOT use BD-RE discs as ‘master discs’ while in batch mode. They
will be re-formatted and re-written without further warning!
Batch mode is a method of copying more than one master Disc without
starting each job individually.
This works by the system recognizing new master discs the time they are
loaded in to the recorders from input hopper.
Each master disc should be placed on the input stack together with the blanks
in such a manner that the master would be loaded first, followed by the
blanks.
Each master and the required number of blanks should be placed in the input
hopper until all masters and blanks are on, or the input hopper is full.
Ensure that the first master is the first disc to be loaded.
