User profiles
Definition Within the IIDC specification user profiles are called memory channels. Often
they are called user sets. In fact these are different expressions for the follow-
ing: storing camera settings into a non-volatile memory inside the camera.
User profiles can be programmed with the following advanced feature register:
In general this advanced register is a wrapper around the standard memory
channel registers with some extensions. So to query the number of available
user profiles you have to check the Memory_Channel field of the
BASIC_FUNC_INQ register at offset 0x400 (see IIDC V1.31 for details).
The ProfileID is equivalent to the memory channel number and specifies the
profile number to store settings to or to restore settings from. In any case pro-
file #0 is the hard-coded factory profile and cannot be overwritten.
After an initialization command, startup or reset of the camera, the ProfileID
also indicates which profile was loaded on startup, reset or initialization.

Note

• The default profile is the profile that is loaded on power-
up or an INITIALIZE command.
• A save or load operation delays the response of the cam-
era until the operation is completed. At a time only one
operation can be performed.
