Programming with Crestron SystemBuilder
The easiest method of
programming, but does not
offer as much flexibility as
SIMPL Windows.
Crestron SystemBuilder offers automatic programming for such residential and
commercial applications as audio distribution, home theater, and video
conferencing. The interface of this tool guides you through a few basic steps for
designating rooms and specifying the control system, touchpanels, devices, and
functionality. Crestron SystemBuilder then programs the system, including all
touchpanel projects and control system logic.
Crestron SystemBuilder is fully integrated with Crestron's suite of software
development tools, including SIMPL Windows, VT Pro-e, and the Crestron
Database. Crestron SystemBuilder accesses these tools behind the scenes, enabling
you to easily create robust systems.
Programming with SIMPL Windows
NOTE : The following are acceptable file extensions for programs that include a
C2N-TFM, developed for specific control system types:
.smw

SIMPL Windows is Crestron's software for programming Crestron control systems.
It provides a well-designed graphical environment with a number of workspaces
(i.e., windows) in which a programmer can select, configure, program, test, and
monitor a Crestron control system. SIMPL Windows offers drag and drop
functionality in a familiar Windows
®
environment.
NOTE: The following descriptions assume that the reader has knowledge of
SIMPL Windows. If not, refer to the extensive help information provided with the
