C. SOFTWARE TEST
This will confirm that the hardware, software, and your
computer are all communicating properly. To perform a
software test please do the following:
1. Launch Discribe
2. Click one of the options from the quick-launch menu (i.e.
Data CD)
3. Click the Robotics… button
4. Click the Test Robotics button.
5. You can select where you want discs to go during the test
and the number of times to repeat the test. Click Start. The
Bravo will perform your test.
D. WRITE TEST FAILURE
The write test simulates writing data to the CD by exactly
duplicating the write process while holding the recorder's
write laser in the off state. If this test is failed, check the
following:
• Fragmentation
If the files to be recorded are fragmented (not written
cleanly and contiguously) on the hard drive, the time
consumed in accessing them may cause the recorder's
buffers to "run out" of information temporarily. During the
actual write process, this would make the disc being
written to useless. Use Norton TM Speed Disk or another
