Save and Load Profiles
LK8000 at startup is looking inside _Configuration subdirectory for a DEFAULT_PROFILE.prf file
and other .prf files. If there are NO profiles, then factory defaults are loaded: LK8000 is reset to
zero configuration.
This is a good approach if you want to reset configuration because something is not
working: remove all profiles from _Configuration after exiting LK8000. Then run LK8000.
On exit, LK8000 is saving current configuration in memory to the DEFAULT_PROFILE.prf , all the
times.
Even if you have loaded a different profile on startup, the DEFAULT_PROFILE on exit will
ALWAYS remember what was the latest configuration in use, with no exceptions.
If on startup only DEFAULT_PROFILE.prf is found, and NO other profiles, then it is the only choice
and it is loaded without asking anything to you.
If on startup there are 2 or more profiles available, then it will ask you to choose one. Remember
that no matter what you load, on exit DEFAULT_PROFILE is saved back with current choices.
Please understand the following: a profile contains information about screen settings that are
device specific. You cannot copy a profile from a PDA to another PDA, to PC, to PNA or
whatever else device because each profile belongs to the device it was generated for! LK8000
can't know if you have copied a profile from another device, and it will assume that what's inside is
good all the way. Screen will be probably unreadable.
It is never a good idea to exchange profiles between different devices.
When you want to save a particular setting to another profile, in order to be able to load it back
later, go to MENU CONFIG 3.3 Profiles and choose PROFILE1, PROFILE2 or PROFILE3 .
