Profiles with V3

Peter WB6POT

Wondering what I'm doing wrong. 
Running 6300 remote with version 3.x using both SmartSDR on Win10 & standalone Maestro.
I set up unique Global, TX & MIC profiles for each.  In this example I do not share profiles between devices.

I log in using SmartSDR and confirm profiles are set correctly.  Log off.
I log in using Maestro and find that TX & MIC profiles have been changed to reflect SmartSDR settings.  Reload Global, TX & MIC, and then log off.
I log back into SmartSDR and see profiles are set to Maestro's.

The same thing happens when I use the iOS app.  (Which also has it's own unique profiles)

One other odd thing that only happens with Maestro.  When I log in the Maestro always goes back to 14.100 and a higher volume than what I had last set.  Both SmartSDR and iOS always default back to the freq & volume I last set on that device.

Any help would be appreciated.

Profiles are stored on the server (radio), not in the client. So, the last loaded profile will be there no matter what device you choose. That's of course different than persistence settings like frequency and volume.

Thanks George - So I will need to reload profiles each time I switch between devices.  That answers one question.

I'm still seeing 2 problems with the Maestro.
1) It doesn't seem to be keeping it's global profile active.  Ie., when I log in using the Maestro and reload my global profile, then log off and relog in immediately, the TX & MIC profiles are still active, but global isn't.  I must load the global profile to get back to the freq & mode I was last using.
2) The global profile on the Maestro doesn't seem to retain the volume setting and some CW settings such as Iambic, breakin and sidetone volume.
I don't recall having this problem with 2.49.

Thanks,

I am not a Flex employee....

There are many thing that are working as not intended, or things that I am sure will be re worked. Nice thing is is the release gives everyone a chance to break things and report. Because profiles is a stapple of Flex radio I hope they fix it soon.

That's exactly what I was seeing no matter what the device.  If I log on using my iOS device and change my profile to my iOS profile, the next time I log on using either SmartSDR or Maestro, they will also be using my iOS profile.

To me this does not make sense and I hope is a bug that will be fixed.  

When I use my iOS device I always want those specific profiles and when I use my SmartSDR I want my SmartSDR MIC & TX profiles.

Why wouldn't each device keep track of what profile it last had loaded?

Ed,
Thanks for the detailed explaination.

I'm glad that two of my issues seem to be bugs or "issues" to be looked at.

To answer your question about TX profiles: In most cases people probably wouldn't be changing TX profiles based on the client, but what about if someone always ran a lower power digital setup when logged in via their Maestro and when logged on via their computer with SmartSDR ran other than digital at full power always.  This is not my case, but wanted to throw out an example case.

The MIC profile would be completely different since in almost all cases each client would be running a different mic setup; or at least that's my case.

Thanks again for your detailed description.
