Configuring with Crestron SystemBuilder 

The Crestron SystemBuilder interface guides you through a few basic steps for 
specifying the control system, designating rooms and touchpanels, devices, and 
functionality. The Crestron SystemBuilder then configures the system, including 
all touchpanel projects and control system logic. It can also connect to Crestron 
RoomView™ management software.  

The Crestron SystemBuilder is fully integrated with the Crestron suite of 
software development tools, including SIMPL Windows, Cross Compiler, VT 
Pro-e, Crestron Database, User IR Database, and User Modules Directory. The 
Crestron SystemBuilder accesses all these tools behind the scenes, enabling you 
to easily create robust systems.  

SystemBuilder provides a step-by-step process that guides the user through the 
process of selecting components and determining signal routing and control. The 
control code and complete equipment lists are automatically generated. Crestron 
SystemBuilder automatically compiles and uploads your program to the control 
system. 

SystemBuilder 

 

After entering the appropriate information in each step, SystemBuilder creates 
the control system logic and touchpanel pages, ready to upload to the controller. 

NOTE:

  Crestron SystemBuilder version 2.0 or higher is required. 

For additional details, download SystemBuilder from the Crestron website and 
examine the extensive help file.
