Saving and Loading Presets

Each Makito X is configured by users' selecting and setting values of applicable settings, such as encoder or decoder and stream settings and the stream destination. Although these configuration settings are not automatically saved, presets provide a way for you to save groups of settings and recall these configurations settings to apply to other streams.

Configuration settings saved as the "startup" preset will continue to be used after a reboot, or when the unit is turned off and on. You can also direct the system to apply a preset to restore settings when the system startup process performs the configuration autoload.

Note

Presets do not include System Administration (e.g., Network) or Security settings.

From the Presets page, you can view the list of saved presets, load a saved preset, and save the current settings as a preset. You can also view the contents of a preset file, delete a preset, and select the preset to load at startup.

Note

A warning indication appears in the title bar on systems with unsaved configurations. The indication is displayed when a user logs in or out of a Makito X when the current configuration has not been saved in a preset.

To view and manage presets:

1. On the Administration page, click Settings on the navigation bar and Presets on the sidebar. 
2. The Presets page opens displaying the list of saved presets for the encoder.
   The startup preset is indicated with a blue check mark.
    
3. To load an existing preset into the current session, hover over the preset name or anywhere in the row and click Load.
   

   

4. To select an existing preset to load at startup, hover over the preset row and click the (grayed out) check mark under Startup.
5. To save the current settings as a new preset, click the 

   

   Add button.
   1. In the New Preset dialog, type a new filename in the Name text box. 
      

      

   2. To select this preset to load at startup, check the Startup checkbox.
   3. Click Create.
6. To save the current settings as an existing preset, hover over the preset row and click Save. You can (optionally) check the Startup check mark.
7. To save the preset as a text file to view or export to other Makito X encoders, click the preset name and save it in the Save As dialog. Note that the file is in Unix format.
8. To import a preset, for example, from another Makito X encoder, click Import and select the file in the Open File dialog box.

9. When you see the filename in the text box, click Upload.
