Crestron C2N-FTB FlipTop Control Center with Cresnet
®
SIMPL Windows is the Crestron graphical, Windows
®
-based development tool
for programming control systems. The SIMPL Windows interface provides two
workspaces: the Configuration Manager, for configuring the control system,
touchpanels, and controlled network devices; and Program Manager, for
designing the logic and functionality of the control system.
In addition, you can use the powerful Crestron Viewport utility to accomplish
multiple system tasks, such as uploading the program to the control system and
performing diagnostic functions.
NOTE: The information in this section assumes that the reader has knowledge
of SIMPL Windows. If not, refer to the extensive help information provided
with the software.
NOTE: In the following description, the PRO2 control system is used.
This section describes a sample SIMPL Windows program that includes a
C2N-FTB.
Configuration Manager is where programmers “build” a Crestron control system
by selecting hardware from the Device Library. In Configuration manager, drag
the PRO2 from the Control Systems folder of the Device Library and drop it in
the upper pane of the System Views. The PRO2 with its associated
communication ports is displayed in the System Views upper pane.
PRO2 System View
The System Views lower pane displays the PRO2 system tree (refer to the
following graphic). This tree can be expanded to display and configure the
communication ports.
