Saved calibration profiles versus preview
Calibration work can exist in two different states:
- a temporary workspace preview
- a saved calibration profile
That distinction matters because they do not behave the same way.
Preview means temporary
A preview lets you explore calibration changes before committing them.
Use preview when you want to:
- test an adjustment
- compare planner behavior before and after a change
- inspect whether a calibration direction looks promising
Preview is temporary working state.
A saved profile means reusable
A saved calibration profile gives you a reusable calibration that you can keep and apply later.
Use a saved profile when you want:
- a stable named calibration
- reusable settings for future planning
- a profile you can assign to a trip or keep as a default
The simplest way to remember it
Preview is for testing.
Saved profile is for reuse.
If you want the route to actually use the calibration
After saving a profile, read Apply calibration to a route for the assignment step.
