Pearl Mini User Guide Configuration preset considerations
Access to presets and privacy considerations
l Recorded files are not removed when you apply a configuration preset. Any user with access to Pearl Mini
has access to all the saved recordings, custom channel layout, etc that are associated with an applied
configuration preset.
l Configuration presets can be overwritten and deleted without a password. Users who are logged in to the
Admin panel can remove or change an existing configuration preset.
l Applying a configuration preset does not clear the settings from groups that aren't a part of the preset,
which means user information is not private.
l Media and recorded files can be deleted, affecting more than just the currently applied configuration
preset. Users can erase uploaded media or recordings that belong to other users.
Locking out the touch screen on Pearl-2 and Pearl Mini
The touch screen configuration group includes all the security settings for the touch screen. It's possible to apply
a preset that effectively locks out all further use of the touch screen. If this happens, use the Admin panel to re-
enable the touch screen, see
Configure the touch screen .
Channel and recorder index number behavior (Pearl-2 and Pearl Mini)
Each channel and recorder has an index number. The first channel created on a system is channel 1,
subsequently channel 2, 3, 4, etc. Recorders are also created starting at index 1 with numbers incrementing as
new recorders are created. The channel (or recorder) index number is found to the left of the channel or recorder
name in the Admin panel:
Configuration presets that contain the channels configuration group specify the channels in the preset by their
index number. This means if you have channels 1, 2, 3 and 4 when you save your preset, applying that preset will
overwrite the configuration of your current channels with indexes 1, 2, 3 and 4. If prior to applying that preset you
also had channels with indexes 5 and 6, the configuration settings for those two channels are erased when the
preset is applied (because the preset only has 4 channels).
There are three areas where channel (and recorder) index numbers affect what happens when applying
configuration presets. See
Recording and streaming states and Recorded files in a channel or recorder for more
information.
