When you change a Cam Profile property, a dialog box indicates the progression of the operation.
For more details about editing the profile, refer to Cam Profile Editor.
Once defined, you can associate the cam profile to a cam Pipe Block in the Pipe Network as follows:

Separating the declaration of the cam Pipe Block from the cam profile provides the capability to prepare several different cam profiles and then apply one of them to the cam Pipe Block.
If you change the profile's filename, do not forget to update the cam Pipe Block accordingly.
