TRBOnet Dispatch Console configuration can be stored in one of two modes:

Per Machine — all dispatchers on this computer share the same console configuration.
Per User — each dispatcher has a separate console configuration (useful where dispatchers rotate at the same workstation).
Configuration includes: layout (panes, tabs, PTT box size), audio settings, map view settings, etc.

Per Machine Mode

Per Machine configuration mode

Configuration file location:

Enterprise: C:\ProgramData\Neocom Software\TRBOnet.Enterprise\
Plus: C:\ProgramData\Neocom Software\TRBOnet Plus\
Any dispatcher changing console layout will overwrite the shared configuration.

Per User Mode

Per User configuration mode

Configuration file location:

Enterprise: C:\Users\%USERNAME%\AppData\Roaming\Neocom Software\TRBOnet.Enterprise\
Plus: C:\Users\%USERNAME%\AppData\Roaming\Neocom Software\TRBOnet Plus\

Configuration Transfer Between Computers

If Per Machine mode is used:

1. Copy the file: TRBOnet.Enterprise.Console.config
From: C:\ProgramData\Neocom Software\TRBOnet.Enterprise\
2. Paste it into the same directory on the target PC.

If Per User mode is used:

If Domain with Roaming Profiles is enabled:

Configuration will transfer automatically when a user logs in on another PC.
1. Log in on PC #1 → Create a test file in %appdata%.
2. Log out and log in on PC #2 with the same account.
3. If the file appears — Roaming Profiles are active.

If Roaming Profiles are NOT enabled (local accounts or non-roaming domain):

1. Log in each user once on each PC (to create the profile).
2.Copy folders: C:\Users\%USERNAME%\AppData\Roaming\Neocom Software\TRBOnet.Enterprise\
3. To corresponding user profiles on target PCs.

Using Different Console Configurations under the Same Windows Account

1. Create a Config File
Open TRBOnet Console and set it up as needed.
Go to ToolsExport Settings.
Save the config, for example: C:\TRBOnetConfigs\myconfig.config
2. Create a Shortcut with Config Parameter
Right-click:
C:\Program Files\Neocom Software\TRBOnet Enterprise\Console\TRBOnet.Console.exe
Send toDesktop (Create shortcut).
Edit the Target field in the shortcut properties to:
"C:\Program Files\Neocom Software\TRBOnet Enterprise\Console\TRBOnet.Console.exe" /config "C:\TRBOnetConfigs\myconfig.config"

Choosing Configuration Mode

Scenario Recommended Mode Reason
One dispatcher = one dedicated PC Per Machine All users share the same layout and settings
Multiple dispatchers work in shifts on one PC and each needs their own layout Per User Settings are saved separately for each Windows user
Consoles should look the same on all workstations Per Machine Single configuration → uniform appearance
Dispatchers prefer individual layouts (different panels, sizes, maps) Per User Prevents overwriting each other's configuration
Active Directory + Roaming Profiles in use Per User Configurations automatically transfer between PCs
Local accounts with one shared configuration required Per Machine Easier to deploy and maintain
