You can create a program that allows you to include the CAMIDJ in 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.
