
-based software tools to develop
an Adagio system. For the minimum recommended software versions, visit the
Version Tracker page of the Crestron website (www.crestron.com/versiontracker

Programming with Crestron SystemBuilder
The easiest method of programming, but does not offer as much flexibility as SIMPL
Windows. For additional details, download SystemBuilder from the Crestron website
and examine the extensive help file.
Programming with SIMPL Windows
SIMPL Windows is Crestron’s premier software for programming Crestron control
systems. It is organized into two separate, but equally important “Managers”.
Configuration Manager
Configuration Manager is the view where programmers “build” a Crestron control
system by selecting hardware from the Device Library.
• To incorporate the AAS into the system, drag the AAS symbol from the
Ethernet Control Modules | Ethernet Audio Modules folder of the Device
Library and drop it in the System Views.
NOTE: It is suggested that you use the SIMPL windows example program referred
to in the following section.
