Setup Menu

The Setup function gives you access to some of the default settings used by the Copywriter Flash Duplicator.

Startup Menu

The Startup Menu selection allows you to select the main menu item that appears when the Copywriter Flash Duplicator starts up. The default setting is 1. Copy. Main Menu items 1 through 6 can be selected.

Copy Area

Only Data Area

With the Copy Area setting selected as Only Data Area, the system will automatically analyze the source flash card’s file format. If the file format is FAT16/32, NTFS, Linux (Ext2, Ext3) file system which the duplicator recognizes then the system will only copy the content data instead of copying the whole flash card including the empty space. For example a 2GB flash card which is FAT32 file format and has only 50 MB of data inside, the system will only copy that specific 50MB of data. Which will only take a few seconds to copy the source.

With the Copy Area setting selected as Whole Media, the system will copy the whole flash card, including the empty space and format. This function is used when you have a flash source which has an unknown file format and you don’t want the system to be confused by such a format.

Button Beep

This setting allows you to turn ON or OFF the beep produced when the buttons are pressed. The default setting is ON.

Asyn Hold Time

This setting allows you to specify the amount of time the duplicator will wait before exiting an Asynchronous duplication job. If there are no target cards detected, then the duplication will exit in that time period. Options are: OFF, 5 seconds, 10 seconds, 20 seconds, 30 seconds, 40 seconds, 50 seconds, 1 minute, 5 minutes, 10 minutes, and 20 minutes.

This setting has no effect on Synchronous duplication.

Ignore Size

This setting allows you to determine how closely the capacity of the target cards match the capacity of the source card. Options are: NO IGNORE (cards must be the same capacity), percentages ranging from 1% to 50%, or DON’T CARE (“Size doesn’t matter”).

This setting is intended for flexibility if the source card is a low-capacity card. Any attempt to duplicate more data than the target card’s capacity will fail.

Asynchronous

If this setting is ON and the source’s file format is one that can be analyzed, the source card is read at the start of the copy process to determine the capacity of the data to be copied. The amount of capacity duplicated will equal the size of the source data rather than the capacity of the entire card. FAT12, FAT16, and FAT32 file formats can be analyzed.

This setting must be set to ON for the Asynchronous Duplication to operate.

If your source is in a file format that can’t be analyzed, such as NTFS, this setting must be OFF for duplication to occur.

If this setting is OFF, the entire capacity of the source card will be duplicated to the target cards, resulting in longer duplication times.

Language

Sets the language on the display. The default is English.
