Section 6: Basic Orbit II Operations

Orbit II was designed to be as easy to use as an office copier for paper documents. Making copies of a master Disc takes only a few simple steps; load the number of blank discs you want to copy, select Copy DISCtoDISC ? by pressing the Yes key, insert your master in Orbit II’s DVD Reader, and press the Yes key again. Orbit II will copy the master disc on to blank discs until its Input Hopper is empty. Because all operating mechanisms are fully enclosed; you can add discs to the Input Hopper, remove discs from the Accept Basket, or remove Discs from the Reject side at any time. Your master disc can be a CDROM, CD- R or CD-RW disc. There are three Orbit II operating modes, Copy?, Copy & Compare?, and Compare

Disc?.

The Copy mode has three options, Disc to Disc, Disc to HDD and HDD to Disc. The Orbit II has an internal hard drive that stores up to 10 different images.

There are two different ways you can set up your Orbit II, depending upon how you intend to use it. If Ask Quantity? is turned on, Orbit II will ask the operator how many discs should be processed for each job. In this operating mode you can leave a stack of blank discs in the Input Hopper. Orbit II will always provide the requested number of discs, even if some discs are rejected during the job. If Ask Quantity? is turned off, Orbit II will not request a quantity from the operator. Orbit II will expect the operator to place the proper number of discs in the Input Hopper before starting the job. If there are rejects, and a specific quantity of discs is needed, the operator will have to add additional discs during the job, or set up another job when the first job is complete. See Section 7 for additional details on the Ask Quantity? option.

6.1 Copy DISCtoDISC

This Orbit II operating mode is the easiest to use because it is the main menu selection that Orbit II presents when it completes its power on self-test. A “copy only” operation is the most common form of disc duplication. In Copy ? mode Orbit II does not verify the content of each data sector recorded. The example shown below assumes Ask Quantity? is turned on.

To initiate a Copy ? operation:

Make sure there are enough discs in the Input Hopper.

Press the Yes key at the

prompt.

the required number of discs in Orbit II’s counter. Pressing the Yes key accepts the number above the underline cursor, and tells Orbit II you are ready for the next operation. Pressing the No key increments the number above the underline cursor. (If you accidentally press the Yes key at the “10s” digit and move to the “1s” digit before you are ready, you can get the cursor back to the “10s” digit by pressing the No until the “1s” digit changes from “9” to “0”.)

When the DVD Reader tray opens, place your master in the DVD Reader tray and press Yes.

Orbit II will copy the master disc on to the blank discs until the requested number of discs are accepted.

You can add discs to the Input Hopper, remove discs from the Accept Basket, or remove Discs from the Reject side at any time.
