Main Menu There are 6 different Main Menu items for the Copywriter Flash Duplicator: Copy, Compare, Copy & Compare, Information, Utility, and Setup. For the Setup options, please refer to page 9. These instructions refer to using 11 USB recorder ports (available only in the USB 11 Flash Duplicator), but the instructions will not differ when using any of the Copywriter Flash Duplicators. Any Copywriter Flash Duplicator model will operate using any number of the available recorder ports.

Troubleshooting and Frequently Asked Questions Is there any limitation for copy file format? You can use "Only Data Area" to copy FAT16/32, NTFS, Linux (ext3) format, it will only copy the data, and therefore the copy speed will be quicker. If you want to copy other formats, it can use "Whole Area" to copy whole Flash; the format of the flash will not be a considered.
