MicroBoards Technology Micro Orbit Operation Manual

Error Conditions
If the system cannot read a master disc
or fails to write to a blank disc, the
system will stop operation and produce a
constant beeping noise. This error
condition will occur if it detects a bad
disc in either TEST or COPY mode.
When a defective disc is detected, the
recorder drive tray will open and the disc
will be lifted out of the tray.
The tray will then close and the system
will produce the constant beeping noise.
Remove the completed discs from the
output bin and press the button. This
will drop the failed disc.
Once the disc is dropped, the system will
be ready to start another job. If you need
to complete more copies, you will need
to place the master disc back on the
spindle and have it read into the hard
drive again.
Firmware Update
If it is necessary to update the system
program in the Micro Orbit duplicator,
please follow these steps.
Power on the Micro Orbit system and
wait for it to complete initializing. The
green LED will be on solid when the
system is ready.
Remove the CD spindle and the output
bin from the system.
Press and hold the button on the front of
the unit for approximately 5 seconds.
The system will beep twice. Release the
button.
The drive tray will now open. Place the
firmware CD into the drive tray and
close it.
The system will automatically load the
new firmware. The two LED's on the
front of the unit will flash. The system
will also make beeping noises.
Once the firmware is loaded, the drive
tray will open and the system will beep.
Remove the firmware CD and close the
drive tray.
Turn power off, wait 5 seconds and then
turn power back on.
The system is now ready to use, with the
new firmware installed.

Version 1.2
Micro Orbit
or
The Micro Orbit is a 50-disc, batch-load duplicator. It has only one button to operate
its simulation and copy modes. Masters are read into the internal hard drive through
the recorder, eliminating the need for a separate reader. Masters and blanks can be
interleaved on the input spindle to allow for batch mode processing. When the
system recognizes a new master, it reads it into the hard drive then ejects the master
into the output bin and starts recording the next series of blanks until it runs out of
media or recognizes a new master in the drive.
The system can come configured with a 40x CD Recorder or a 4x DVD-R recorder.
The DVD system can record CD or DVD masters.
Using the Micro Orbit CD system is very easy. Plug in power, turn on your system,
load the system with media and press a button. When the system is turned on, the
green LED will flash, as it goes through the initialization stage. When initialization is
complete, the green LED will be on solid. Press the button once to start COPY mode
or press the button 5 times, to start TEST mode. Both modes are explained in more
details later in this document.
