Testing a Supplied Profile Label
This lesson applies the course’s byte, offset and table concepts to a profile supplied by a user. The word “limiter” in a profile is a label; validating a profile checks its shape and byte ranges, not whether the label is true.
Worked example
A label does not become evidence when the range validates
Input
Supplied bytes:
0A 14 1E 28 32 3CProfile entry: “Limiter”, offset 1, 2 rows × 2 columns.
Operation
Map Profile Loader checks that the supplied schema is valid and the four selected bytes fit within the sequence.
Output
The selected offsets are 1–4; the preview shows 14 1E / 28 32.
What this tells us
This establishes a valid user-supplied selection and preview. It does not establish that the bytes implement a limiter or apply to a vehicle.
The same distinction applies to a profile’s names, units or axis labels: they describe what the author claims about the data, not what the tool independently discovered.
Use the Map Profile Loader to inspect its accepted schema and range checks. The synthetic table guide explains how selected offsets and dimensions form a display.
