Test Manager
The Test Manager is a utility for testing and debugging a SIMPL Windows program,
by monitoring the status of selected signals in real time. Test Manager can test any
program that has been compiled and uploaded to the control system.
Test Manager is launched from within SIMPL Windows by clicking the Test
Manager button or by selecting Tools | Test Manager. Test Manager can also be
opened as a standalone program.
The Test Manager Program
The Test Manager program is broken down into three windows:
• Incoming Data
• Status Window
• Trace Window
Incoming Data
The Incoming Data window 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 window of the Crestron Viewport.
Control system data can be saved to disk by selecting Save Incoming Data on the
Edit menu. The data will be 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.
To clear the contents of the Incoming Data window, select Clear Incoming Data
from the Edit menu.
