4.3.5. Preset names
To help memorizing the preset configurations, names can be assigned to saved
presets. Preset names can be maximum 16 characters long, and can contain any
ASCII characters except: ( ) { }. All characters are converted to uppercase.
Info:
If the CPU firmware version is above 2.0.0 then the preset names are stored in the
router’s memory so they can be read by another computer. Otherwise, the preset
names are stored locally in a file on the computer that was used to save the preset
names. (By default this file can be found as C:\Program Files\Lightware\
LW_matrix_controller_v3_2_0\settings.ini)
