Rack Stack - Multiple DVD Recorder Control with One Serial Cable

When you control multiple DVD recorders from your computer's serial port, you assign a number to each machine...DECK 1, DECK 2, etc.  After that, the command "DECK3;RECS" makes deck #3 record.  Group them together and the command "GRUP1;RECS" makes all the machines record at once.  Standard on the DVD-1150.

Plus R and RW

What about +R and +RW?
DVD +R vs. -R discussion has become more of a religious issue than a technical one.   Back in the year 2000, it find players for +R were less common than they are today, but even the oldest players accept and play +RW.

 The BCD DVD-1150 Industrial DVD Recorder uses +RW and +R.  Frankly, +RW is our favorite.  The "Plus" discs are preformatted by the machine (takes less than a minute) and this insures playablity on any other DVD player.  And... +RW doesn't need finalizing!

Today, when we run tests at major retailers like Circuit City and Best Buy, our discs play on all of their DVD players.

Both "+R" and "+RW" will playback immediately on a DVD-1150.   No finalization required to play back on the same machine that made it.  After finalization, "+R" plays well in consumer DVD players.

No Finalization with +RW
DVD+RW is unique in that it will play in consumer decks immediately, no finalization is required!

Client Comments 
Our clients are a laconic bunch.  We rarely hear from them because our products just work.  When we can pry comments from them, they sound like this:

"Things are great. We are pleased with the product to date."  This e-mail address is being protected from spam bots, you need JavaScript enabled to view it

"...Robust RS-232 Interface..."  (Some other machines 'go to sleep' and require physical restart.) 

(Pretty boring stuff.  It just works.)
