While the slave disc is being checked, the words
Checking Media will appear on the screen.
While the master disc is being checked, the
words
Checking Data will appear on the
screen.
If the CD-D4000 MKII does not detect any
potential problems with the discs, copying will
start.
5 The first part of the disc to be copied is the TOC
(Table of Contents). While this is being written,
the display shows:
6 When this has been written, the data is copied
over, and the percentage which has been written
is shown on the display, along with an animated
display to indicate that writing is currently in
progress:
7 After the percentage counter goes over 99% ,
the CD-D4000 MKII “closes” the disc, and the
display shows:
8 When the “close” operation is complete, the
display will show:
You can now remove the discs using the eject
buttons on the drives (these are disabled while
the copy process is taking place). Alternatively,
you can compare the original with the copy (see
7, "Compare CD-ROM").

6 - Test before disc copy
The test operation is functionally similar to the write
operation, except that the writing of data to the slave
disc is simulated. This is useful to make sure that data
can be transferred at the selected rate between the
master and slave discs.
1 Press the MODE key until the display shows:
2 Press ENTER :
3 Insert the discs into the disc tray (original in the
MASTER , and the blank CD-R in the SLAVE ),
and press the ENTER key.
The test operation continues in exactly the same
way as the copy operation described above.
First, the destination slave CD-R media is
checked (
Checking Media ), followed by a
reading of the source master disc ( Checking
Data ).
Next, the writing of the TOC is simulated (Test
Writing TOC), and then writing of the data is
simulated, with a percentage counter displayed:
At the end of the test procedure, the CD-D4000
MKII simulates the “disc close”, and displays:
followed by:
NOTE
There is one other important difference between
test write mode and copy mode. You can interrupt
the test write mode part of the way through the
operation without affecting the slave CD-R media.
If you interrupt a copy procedure part of the way
through the operation, the CD-R becomes unus-
able. To interrupt the test write operation, press
and hold down the
MODE key. The display will
show Exit? . When this is displayed, press the
ENTER key. This cancels the test write process,
and the display returns to the initial status screen.
If you press the
MODE key while Exit? is shown on
the display, the display returns to the test write dis-
play screen.
