Copy 2 is a backup or archive feature. This item is used to
copy the data to Copy 2 device by specifying only the start
point. The point is specifi ed by the date and time or the book-
mark. The copy continues until the end point of the recording
data reaches or the media to be copied becomes full unless

cording data.

When copying the data to DVD while "Overwrite" is set
to "On," the unit clears the existed data of the disc before
overwriting with new data. Note that clearing the data
takes about 30 to 40 minutes. You cannot cancel opera-
tion during clearing the data of the DVD.
When copying the data while "Copy Data" is set to "Alarm,"
the unit performs copy operation, however, the data is not
copied if there is no alarm recording data within the speci-
fi ed range of copy. In case of CD/DVD disc, the remaining
capacity becomes low because only the management
information is recorded.
Do not use the disc which has been used on the personal
computer, failed to be copied, or stopped during copying
due to the power failure because they may cause mal-
function of the unit.
