SIMPL Debugger
Using SIMPL Debugger
The SIMPL Debugger is a utility for testing and debugging a SIMPL Windows
program by monitoring the status of selected signals in real time. SIMPL Debugger
can test any program that has been compiled and uploaded to the control system.
SIMPL Debugger is launched from within Crestron Toolbox by clicking the SIMPL
Debugger button or by selecting Tools | SIMPL Debugger. Then select the program
that that should be monitored.
The SIMPL Debugger Program
The SIMPL Debugger program is broken down into three sections:
• Incoming Data
• Status Window
• Trace Window
Incoming Data
The Incoming Data section displays information received from the control system
and is unrelated to signal monitoring. This is the same data that is shown in the
Incoming Data section of the Crestron Toolbox.
Control system data can be saved to disk by selecting Save Incoming Data on the
Edit menu. The data is saved as an ASCII text file with the extension .tmi.
Text in the Incoming Data window can be copied to the clipboard by selecting Copy
from the Edit menu.
