Advanced Setup Menu  
To get to the Advanced Setup Menu, press and hold the ESC button for three seconds.  
The Advanced Setup menu includes options for the more advanced user. Normally these  
functions are not used in the daily operation of the QD-MultiDrive duplicator. If you have any  
questions about using these functions, please contact the Microboards technical support  
department.  
UnderRun Protect  
The UnderRun Protect feature allows the recorder to use Burn Proof during recording. This  
setting defaults to ON and should remain on. This feature protects against making “coasters”  
or bad discs. Again, this setting should always remain ON.  
Overburn  
The default setting for this feature is OFF. Overburn can be used with certain CD recorders,  
to allow more data to be writing to the disc. This feature is not supported by the QD-  
MultiDrive duplicator.  
Read Error Skip  
The Read Error Skip feature is used if you wish to ignore read errors during duplication. The  
default setting is OFF and it is highly recommended that this setting is not changed. If it is  
turned ON, there is the possibility of copying a disc that is not the same as the master.  
Burn-in  
The Burn-in function is used to test the operation of the QD-MultiDrive duplicator and is for  
service purposes only. This function should only be used if directly by Microboards Technical  
Support.  
Update Firmware  
The Update Firmware feature is used to update the controller firmware.  
1. To update the firmware: Place the firmware CD into the TOP reader drive.  
2. Press the ENT button  
3. The display will show:  
Update F/W X.12Y  
To M.45R YES?  
4. Press the ENT button to complete the firmware update.  
5. The duplicator will reboot automatically after installing the new firmware.  
Compare Firmware  
The Compare Firmware function is used to compare the firmware installed on the controller  
with the firmware on the CD.  
H/W Diagnostic  
Hardware Diagnostics runs a number of tests on the controller. Normally this function is used  
by service personnel.  
Load Default  
The Load Default feature will set all the values back to the factory default settings.  
16  
CD+G  
The CD+G feature, when set to ON in the Advanced Setup Menu, will allow you to copy a  
CD+G Karaoke master disc. The default setting is OFF.  
Important Note: The CD+G value must be set to OFF to use the Track Extraction  
feature.  
To enable CD+G duplication, perform the following steps:  
1. Press and HOLD the ESC button for 3 seconds to enter the Advanced Setup Menu  
2. Press the UP or DOWN arrows until the display reads 10-9: Adv Setup CD+G  
3. Press ENT to adjust the CD+G setting  
4. Use the UP or DOWN arrows to alternate the setting between ON and OFF  
5. Press ENT when ON is displayed to enable CD+G duplication  
6. Press ESC to exit the Advanced Setup Menu  
7. Use the UP or DOWN arrow to return to Copy mode  
ISRC & MCN  
The ISRC (International Standard Recording Code) & MCN (Media Catalog Number) feature  
allows you to copy this information from a CD audio master to the blank disc. The default  
setting is OFF.  
USB Option  
This function is not used in the QD-MultiDrive Series.  
CD Text  
This feature allows CD-Text content to be copied from master to blank. The default is OFF.  
Disc Counter  
This feature allows you to view the number of successful and unsuccessful burns. The JC OK  
entry is for successful burns for the entire unit; you can also view the individual drive  
performance by using the ▼▲ buttons.  
Update Drive F/W  
This feature is not used by the QD- MultiDrive.
