Before executing this function, please read “Setup Before Copy” to better understand the
copy process and results.
Copy Area
Copy area setting ➡[7. Setup >> 7.1 Copy Area]
Before duplication, select the data area with "Copy area".
Select "System and Files"
Select "Whole Media"
Note
⚫If flash card is removed during copy process, the system will stop
immediately, and the red light will illuminate to notify user that the
copy has failed. Removing the flash card during copy is strongly
discouraged as it will damage the flash card.
⚫Backup the data on target flash cards before starting the copying
process as any preexisting data will be lost once copy is complete.
★Setup Before Copy
There are several sub-functions related to copy results, which can be adjusted in function
[7. Setup] before copying.

2. Compare
The compare function checks the accuracy of copy result. After the copy finishes, go to
function 2 and press "OK" to start the compare process.
3. Copy+Compare
This is the most convenient function. Rather than going to function [2.Compare], then
pressing "OK" after copy finishes, function [3.Copy+Compare] automatically runs the
compare function after copy completion to ensure an accurate copy result.
★How to Ensure Duplication is Correct?
CF121/CFast121 provides the most precise "compare function" to provide our clients with
the most reliable duplications. Using function [2. Compare] or [3. Copy+Compare] is
strongly recommended for guaranteed copy accuracy.
Execute Function [2. Compare] for data checking between source and targets after
copy has concluded.
Select Function [3. Copy+Compare] to automatically execute data comparison after
copy has finished.
Note
1. These two functions will examine the contained data, post copy, via a
strict bit-for-bit comparison. This highly increases data accuracy.
2. User is responsible for verification of targets’ quality. Testing a few
completed targets in a mass production environment for quality control is
recommended.

7. Setup
7.1 Copy Area
➊Copy Area: System and Files
Also known as "Quick Copy”. The source’s format is automatically analyzed and if it’s
recognizable, such as, FAT 16/32/64, NTFS, or Linux ext. 2/3/4, the system will copy the
data only, rather than the entire flash.
Note
If the file format is not recognized, the whole flash card, including empty
space, will be copied even if you specify copy area in “System and Files”.
➋Copy Area: Whole Media
The system will copy the whole flash card, including empty space and format. This
function is useful when users want to copy the whole flash or have a flash source with
an unknown format. "Whole media" copies take a bit longer to complete.
7.2 Button Sound
Controls whether to hear a sound when a button is pressed.
