Using the USB Duplicator
Synchronous and Asynchronous
The 1:11 USB Copy Cruiser SA supports two copying methods:
•
•
Synchronous
Asynchronous
Synchronous Copying
Synchronous Copying means that all flash drives begin copying together.
Synchronous Copying is used when the source data is larger than the system
buffer (256MB).
You can check the size of the data source drive by inserting the source drive
into the USB Duplicator and using the arrow keys to first select “Information”,
then select “USB Info”.
Plug in one source and up to 11 target USB flash drives. The display will read
out the number of USB flash drives that are ready for copying and the content
size. When you have finished loading the target drives use the arrow keys to
select “Copy” and then select OK.
Asynchronous Copying
Asynchronous Copying is used when the data files are the same as or less than
the systems buffer memory (256MB). If the source data content is less than
the systems buffer memory you can copy flash drives continuously by taking
out the drive which has finished copying, and replacing it with another blank.
Asynchronous Copying will start immediately after loading the first target
drive.
When this process is used the source data is read into systems buffer first. You
can check the size of the data source USB flash drive by inserting it into the
USB Duplicator and using the arrow keys to first select “Information”, then
select “USB Info”.

7.4 Asyn Hold Time
This function allows you to set the time to exit Asynchronous Copying

the USB Duplicator the LCD will ask to exit Asynchronous or to stay in
Asynchronous mode. Press OK to exit Asynchronous Copying or press
ESC to keep this status.
To change the default setting for Asyn Hold Time use the following
procedure:

7.5 Ignore Size
To make sure the FAT table of each flash drive was copied correctly all
source and target flash drives should be the same capacity. Each flash drive
potentially has some capacity difference due to the manufacturing process.
To ensure both the source and target flash drives are at the same capacity
you can set the capacity tolerance. This function is used to set the tolerance
% of flash capacity difference between source and targets.

Note: Source flash drive and blank drives need to be the same capacity for two reasons.
1. During the copy process the source flash drive “index sector” is copied to
the target flash drive. The index sector of a flash drive contains the drives
specifications, size and FAT table. Different drive sizes will have different index
sectors. For example if your are copying a 2G source flash drive to a 4G target
flash drive without performing data transforming, the index sector of the 2G
source would be copied to the 4G target flash drive effectively changing it to a 2G
flash drive because of the copied 2G index sector.
2. If you allow the system to execute data transforming from a source flash drive to
multiple target flash drive in addition to longer copying time there is a potential for
data loss during data transforming.
Note: If you need to copy a source flash to a target with a big capacity difference there
are two ways to avoid potential problems.
1. Use the Setup function Ignore Size to increase the tolerance % of the source and
target.
2. Turn the Setup function Analyze Source to OFF.
