## Profiles

A set of settings are saved as a profile. Profiles are selected from the dropdown menu located at the bottom left of the rover settings menu. All lidar systems come preconfigured with factory profiles, which contain settings suitable for a typical use-case. Factory profiles appear in bold font in the dropdown menu:

Factory profiles cannot be overwritten, so when changes are made to a profile, either in the lidar, camera, or navigation system settings, these changes must be saved as a new profile, via the **Save current configuration as new profile** button:

User-created profiles will be listed in the profile dropdown menu. Since these profiles are not factory profiles, they can be modified and deleted:
