Using the DVD/CD Flash Copy Tower
Disc Spanning
To use Disc Spanning go to Setup and enable Disc Spanning. When you want to copy a Memory Card which has a content size bigger than a disc, the DVD/CD Flash Copy Tower will automatically estimate the number of blank discs required for the job and execute Disc Spanning. When the file size is very close to the writable space on the blank discs, the DVD/CD Flash Copy Tower may under estimate the number of discs needed. If this happens you can add an extra disc before you start or when the DVD/ CD Flash Copy Tower displays “Waiting Disc”. For example, when you copy an SD Card with over 2GB content size to CDs, you place a CD into the burner, and the DVD/ CD Flash Copy Tower will calculate total number of discs to back up this SD Card (4 discs for this example, see Setup → Advanced Setup → DVD/CD/Spare Size on page 24 of this User Guide for seting writable space on DVD/CD). If you place a DVD (4.7G) to copy, the DVD/CD Flash Copy Tower will start copying without requiring additional discs.

When a disc is finished copying, it will be ejected. If the Disc Spanning process is not complete, the DVD/CD Flash Copy Tower will prompt you for a new blank disc to continue the copying.
Note: The DVD/CD Flash Copy Tower can not use Disc Spanning for a Memory Card that has a single file whose content size is bigger than a disc size.
