You can create a program that allows you to set up the ST-1700C to operate a 
Crestron control system using the Crestron programming tools Crestron 
SystemBuilder™ and SIMPL Windows. These tools are intended for users with 
different levels of programming knowledge. The flexibility of each tool is 
proportional to the degree of programming expertise (i.e., the more flexible, the 
more a programmer needs to know and account for). Of course, one can initiate 
programming using the easiest method (SystemBuilder) and use advanced 
techniques that are available from SIMPL Windows to customize the job. 
VT Pro-e is a Windows compatible software package for creating Crestron 
touchpanel screen designs. Refer to “Programming with VT Pro-e” on page 15 for 
additional details regarding VT Pro-e.
