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, channel layouts, 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 presets 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.
Media files that you've uploaded to Pearl Mini (logos, background images, etc) are included in the
configuration preset and must be present on the system when creating a preset that includes the
Channels group; otherwise, a failure is reported.
Locking out the touch screen
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
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:
