You can create a new partition by either loading it directly from a Master Disc or by copying it directly onto the Hard Drive through the tower publisher’s USB connection. Here we will discuss loading source data directly onto the Hard Drive. The next section will explain how to load a partition from a Master Disc.
The tower publisher will recognize three different formats of source data:
1.ISO disc image file
2.NRG disc image file
3.Data in the form of directories and files
To load your source data onto the Hard Drive, please do the following:
1.Make sure your unit is connected to a computer via the unit’s USB port.
2.Power on the tower publisher and computer.
3.Push the “USB” Fast Key on the tower publisher’s controller and you will see the following screen:
External Connection: Off
COPY USB PRINT SOURCE
ESC ENT
4.Use UP or DOWN arrow to select ON and press ENT:
External Connection: On
COPY USB PRINT SOURCE
ESC ENT
5.The Hard Drive should now show up on your computer as “Duplicator”
6.Copy your source data into the “Duplicator/dup” directory
The partition name displayed in the tower publisher will be the name of your ISO or NRG file. For loose directories and files, create a new folder in the “Duplicator/ dup” directory and copy your directories and files into it.* The name of this folder will be the partition name for this source data. You will ONLY be able to choose this “root” directory for burning onto a disc. You will not be able to navigate into the folder when selecting a partition to create discs.
*Duplicating from folders on the Duplicator HDD only supports file sizes 4GB and smaller.
