The MAP processor works with parameters that define each element within it, such as levels, equalization, matrix controls, etc. These are constantly stored in what we call the working memory. The working memory or set of parameters that define the state of the processor can be saved as Presets when required.

When the MAP is turned off the working memory is not lost and will be used when the power is turned on or restored.

The working memory can be altered by the user from the 3cMAP configuration program, by remote control, by a GPIO or by a scheduled task, so it is advisable to store information in a preset in memory internal to the MAP or externally to the PC to reset the equipment to initial settings when required.

MAP can store up to 10 presets internally and externally on PC storage devices organized in files and directories.

A presets loaded from the PC will transfer its parameters to the main memory to define the working mode of the MAP, but these settings will not be stored in any of the 10 internal presets automatically. So it is recommended to save them in one of the 10 presets available in the MAP's internal memory. This general rule will allow you to change PCs without losing your settings. It is also convenient on the other hand to safeguard the parameters externally as a security measure.

The Remote Control parameters will be stored in the REM-2 remote devices themselves and not in the MAP or the associated PC presets.

The list of scheduled tasks and the GPIO definitions will only be stored in the internal memory of the MAP itself and cannot be stored either in the internal presets or in the presets associated PC.

The action of the voice messages will be stored in the presets on the condition that the preset is stored at the time it is played and that the Repeat function is checked (activated). That is, if we want a preset to trigger a voice message when loaded, it is necessary to check Repeat just before saving it.
