Running Your First Job 25
Under this window there are several adjustable-size windows
that indicate what you've set-up and what's happening: the
Drive Status Window, the Job Status Window, and the Job
Setup Window. A sub-Window called the Activity Log is also
available, but it is hidden upon initial boot-up of the software.
Here's a short explanation of each Window:
• Drive Status Window. Lists all of the available drives for
your computer. Your configuration has just two drives:
the internal drive in your PC and the CD Recorder
installed in your Duplicator.
• Job Set-Up Window. This is the space where the Job Setup
Panel for each job is displayed. When you select a job by
clicking on File: New from the File pull-down menu, a
different type of Job Panel will appear in the Job Set-Up
Window depending upon the type of job selected. Each
Job Panel contains all of the necessary information to run
that job, including source file name, number of copies to
make, etc. In addition, the Job Panels report status
information during the running of the job.
• Job Status Window. As each Job Panel is formed, an entry
is made in the Job Status Window at the lower left side of
the main Application Window. When jobs are started, this
list displays the status of each job, including the number of
discs copied and the number remaining. This window
may be hidden by clicking on the Show Job List Panel
under the View menu.
One other sub-window available is called the Activity Log
Panel. It records all user actions and system responses during
the recording process by time of occurrence. If a problem
occurs while you're not present in front of the computer, you
can browse the log to find out details that may no longer be
present on the main screen. Control of the Activity Log is
under File: Activity Log. The log may be saved (this happens
automatically every time you exit the software). Emptying the
log will delete the log -forever.
B. OVERVIEW OF RECORDING
Three basic recording operations are available: (1) actual
recording, (2) test recording, and (3) verifying.
Actual recording is self-explanatory. Discs will be recorded
without any testing or verifying beforehand. If you have used
