PROFILE (ASCII)

SF-3050

Sapphire

SF-3040

The Sapphire receiver provides for storage of up to 20 user profiles in its non-volatile memory.
Each user profile is stored with a name and contains a complete set of user-controlled
configuration parameters. This command is used to perform various operations such as
creating, saving, and deleting user profiles.

Command:

[PROFILE] action {,

“name”}

Parameter

Definition

action

Keyword that specifies the action to be performed on the user profile, as described in Table
79.

name

String argument (up to 20 characters) that defines the name of the user profile. This
argument is case-

insensitive, so “STATION12” is considered the same profile name as

“Station12”. As noted in Table 79, this argument is optional in some cases. As is the case
for all string type arguments in Sapphire commands, it must be enclosed in quotes.

There are two reserved profile names:

ALL

This profile name is used only with the DELETE action when it is desired to delete
(erase) all of the user profiles from non-volatile memory.

NONE This profile name is not used with this command but it is used with the
[USEPROFILE] command to specify that no user profile is to be used. Refer to section
1.202.2 USEPROFILE.

Table 79: [PROFILE] Command Action Keywords

Keyword Mnemonic

Profile Action

DELETE

Deletes (erases) the specified profile from non-volatile memory

LISTALL

Outputs a list of all the profile names currently stored in non-volatile memory. The
profile name argument is not used for this action.

OUTPUT

Causes an entire profile to be output to the port issuing the command. If a valid
profile name is specified, that profile will be output from non-volatile memory. Any
changes not saved in the profile are not included in the output. If a profile name is
not specified, the current receiver settings will be output, i.e., the output will contain
the last user profile invoked plus any configuration changes that have entered.

SAVEAS

Causes the current receiver settings to be saved in non-volatile memory as a user
profile with the specified name

Examples: [PROFILE]

SAVEAS, “MyFirstProfile”

Saves the current configuration settings of the receiver in non-volatile memory as a
user profile with the name MYFIRSTPROFILE

[PROFILE]

DELETE, “ABLINE28”

Deletes the user profile named ABLINE28 from non-volatile memory

[PROFILE]

DELETE, “ALL”

Deletes all of the user profiles stored in non-volatile memory

Once a profile has been deleted, its contents cannot be retrieved. There is no
way to undelete it.
