Abstract

PURPOSE:To improve handling ability and to easily prevent erroneous copy by adding binary information corresponding to a data to be copied to a target recorder and providing a reader at the loading path of the target recorder. CONSTITUTION:When inserting a target floppy 7 as the object of copy to a floppy disk device FDD 3, a bar code 9 printed on a label 8 attached to the floppy 7 is read by a bar code reader 6 provided at the inserting/ejecting part of the FDD 3. A controller 1 retrieves and collates the data registered on a fixed disk device HDD 2 as a master recording medium from the information of the read bar code 9 based on a corresponding table. Thus, since the controller 1 selects copy contents, it is not necessary to interpose an operator, handling ability is improved and erroneous copy can be easily prevented as well.

Description

[Detailed Description of the Invention] [Field of Industrial Application] The present invention relates to a data copying device for media such as floppy disks and external storage devices such as fixed disk devices, and is particularly concerned with improving handling and preventing erroneous copying. be.

[Conventional technology]

In a line that manufactures a large number of copy disks from a master disk, it has conventionally been necessary to copy data corresponding to the label from the master disk to uncopied disks to which a label has been attached.

For this reason, the operator selects and copies the data corresponding to the label, which may result in mistakes being made when pasting the label.

Due to incorrect data settings, etc., it is easy for the copied content to not match the displayed content on the label.
It had become an important issue.

Related devices of this type include
63551, JP-A No. 63-42081, and the like.

[Problem to be solved by the invention]

The purpose of the present invention is to ensure that the content display label affixed to the recording medium or recording device matches the copied data;
An object of the present invention is to provide a copying device that can prevent erroneous copying.

[Means to solve the problem]

In order to achieve the above purpose, binary information corresponding to the data to be copied is added to the recording medium or recording device, and this is sent to the recording medium or the target recording device through a reader provided in the loading path, after loading or unloading. The controller selects master data from the read information,
It is configured so that it can be checked against master data to determine whether copying is possible.

[Effect]

According to the present invention, binarized information corresponding to the data to be copied is added to the recording medium or the recording device, and this information is provided in the mounting path of the recording medium or the target recording device, or after mounting or through the mounting path of the recording medium or the target recording device. The controller can select the master data from the read information and compare it with the master data to determine whether copying is possible, eliminating the need for one operator's intervention, making it easy to handle and preventing erroneous copying. A copying device can be realized.

〔Example〕

An embodiment of the present invention will be described below with reference to the drawings.

FIG. 1 is an external view showing the overall configuration of a recording medium copying apparatus.

1 is a controller that controls the entire device, 2 is a fixed disk device (hereinafter referred to as HDD) that stores master data, and 3 is a floppy disk device for the target! (
(hereinafter referred to as FDD), 4 is a display section for displaying copy operations, and 5 is an input section for inputting instructions for copy operations and the like.

Furthermore, a barcode reader 6 is provided at the florapit insertion/ejection portion of the FDD 3.

FIG. 2 is an external view of the floppy, and a label 8 attached to the floppy 7 is provided with a bar code 9 indicating the contents to be copied as well as an indication 10 of the contents to be copied.

FIG. 3 is a correspondence table 11 of barcode information corresponding to data groups registered in the master recording medium.

FIG. 4 shows an operation flow diagram of the recording medium copying apparatus.

Since the configuration of the embodiment of the present invention is as described above, when the target floppy disk 7 to be copied is inserted into the FDD 3, the bar code reader 6 provided at the insertion/ejection portion of the FDD 3 is attached to the floppy disk 7. Read the barcode 9 printed on the label 8. The controller 1 searches and collates the data registered in the HDD 2, which is a master recording medium, based on the information of the read barcode 9, based on the correspondence table 11.

At this time, the data corresponding to the barcode information is stored on the HDD2.
If the data is installed in the HDD 2, the controller 1 selects the data in the HDD 2 and copies it to the target floppy disk 7 installed in the FDD 3.

Further, when the data corresponding to the barcode information is not stored in the HDD 2, the controller 1 determines that the floppy is not the target floppy, and displays on the display 4 that the target floppy 7 installed in the FDD 3 is not the target floppy.
is displayed to instruct ejection of the target floppy disk 7.

Similarly, when the barcode 9 is absent or cannot be read, the controller 1 determines that the floppy is not the target floppy.

One embodiment of the present invention is as described above, so the floppy disk 7
The controller 1 selects the content to be copied by reading the barcode 9 affixed to the barcode 9 through the barcode reader 6 provided in the insertion/ejection part of the FDD 3, eliminating the need for operator intervention to select the copy data. , the ease of handling can be improved.

Furthermore, the copy data corresponding to barcode 9 is stored on the HDD.
2, or when the barcode 9 is missing or cannot be read, the controller 1 determines that the floppy is not the target floppy, and therefore prevents copying of contents different from the contents 10 written on the floppy label 8. It becomes possible.

As described above, it is possible to provide a recording medium copying device that is very easy to handle and can easily prevent erroneous copying.

Similarly, FIG. 5 is an external view showing the overall configuration of a copying device relative to a recording device.

1 is a controller that controls the entire device, and 2 is a master HDD that stores master data.

Reference numeral 21 indicates a target HDD that can be connected to and detached from the power supply and control signal connection section 22, 4 indicates a display section for displaying copy operations, and 5 indicates an input section for inputting instructions for copy operations and the like.

In addition, the connection part 22 of the target HDD 21 has a label 8 printed with a barcode indicating the content to be copied.
A barcode reader 6 is provided.

Since the configuration is as described above, copying operations and controls are possible in exactly the same way as a floppy 7 copying device, and the label 8
The contents corresponding to barcode 9 written in can be copied.

Therefore, it is also possible to provide a copying device of a recording device incorporating a recording medium that is very easy to handle and can easily prevent erroneous copying.

〔Effect of the invention〕

As described in detail above, according to the present invention, binarized information corresponding to data to be copied is added to a recording medium or a recording device, and this is provided in the mounting path of the recording medium or target recording device, or via a , after installation or during installation, the controller can select the master data from the read information and compare it with the master data to determine whether copying is possible, eliminating the need for operator intervention, improving handling and preventing erroneous copying. It is possible to provide a copying device for a recording medium or a recording device that can easily prevent the above.
