This ability to save "partial" Presets allows a great freedom of management. Example: two Presets
include MATRIX data only, with two different setups for inputs/outputs routings. By loading either of
these two Presets during system operation, only such routing will change, respecting inputs and outputs
settings the user made up to that point (volume, EQ, etc..), since data for INPUTS and OUTPUTS
sections were not saved in any of the two Presets.
Right-clicking this icon opens a window with the following options:
 Load Preset from file: lets you load a Preset stored on a hard drive, external USB memory, etc.
 Save Preset from file: lets you save a Preset on a hard drive, external USB memory, etc.
These two functions are very useful for copying in a MIMO88 unit a Preset coming from another unit
currently offline, or from another Project or facility. Preset files are saved on disk with a ". MIMO_preset"
suffix.
EMERGENCY PRESET– UNDO PRESET:
There are two special Presets among the 99 available Presets for MIMO88: Presets #98 and #99:
 Preset #98 is what we might name an “Emergency Preset” (the save file could be renamed
Emergency, if desired). When you call this Preset for recovery, the existing configuration is saved
beforehand in the preset #99, or “UNDO Preset”. Then Preset #98 is recalled. If you later recall
Preset #99 (UNDO), MIMO88 recovers the exact settings it had before loading Preset #98.
Application example: let's imagine an emergency scenario, requiring to spread an evacuation
message in all areas of a facility. In such a scenario, when a trigger (a contact closure that comes
from the central fire panel, for example) appears, Preset #98 is recalled so that, when loaded,
MIMO88 mutes all sound sources, except the evacuation message, and adjusts destinations and
output volumes for the message to be delivered with the required intelligibility. The sequence
would be:
1. The system is operating normally
2. The central fire panel closes a contact that is connected to a MIMO88's GPI
3. This contact triggers an event recalling Preset #98 (EMERGENCY):
o the current configuration is saved in Preset #99 (UNDO)
o Preset # 98 (EMERGENCY) is recalled
4. When the contact is opened (end of emergency), manually or by another event with an
inverted polarity on the same GPI input, Preset #99 (UNDO) is recalled, returning the
system to its initial state as before the onset of the emergency scenario (point 1)
Note: Preset #99 (UNDO) remains available in the Presets list only as long Preset #98 (EMERGENCY)
is enabled
