# Settings & Configs

IDCamPro works with global (computer wide) settings and local (loadable) configs.&#x20;

## Configs

Configs are loadable environments that hold the following settings:

* Cameras
* Timing systems
* RACE RESULT integration
* Other, undocumented settings

Configs can be loaded and stored away for future use. E.g. you can have a config for cross-country events and running events in case you use different cameras or timing systems for these events.&#x20;

Config settings can be accessed via `Config` - `Settings`. Config files are plain JSON files having a `.IDCamProConfig` extension.

## Global Settings

These usually do **not** need to be changed and contain the following settings:

* Theme (dark, light, off)
* Prevent system from sleep when app is active
* Many other, usually undocumented settings

Global settings can be accessed via `?` - `Extended Settings`. The single setting file is a plain JSON called `Settings.json`.

## Location

You can access the folder containing the global settings file and - usually - also the competitions themselves and config files by clicvking on `?` - `Open Settings Folder`

Location: `%localappdata%\dbnetsoft\IDCamPro`

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://docs.dbnetsoft.com/dbnetsoft/idcampro/general/settings-and-configs.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
