Operations Guide - DOC. 6266A 

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 
software. 

NOTE

: In the following description, the PRO2 control system is used.  

This section describes a sample SIMPL Windows program that includes a TV/FM 
Tuner. 

Configuration Manager is where programmers “build” a Crestron control system by 
selecting hardware from the 

Device Library

. In Configuration Manager, drag the 

PRO2 from the Control Systems

 

folder of the 

Device Library

 and drop it in the 

upper pane of the 

System Views

. The PRO2 with its associated communication ports 

is displayed in the 

System Views

 

upper pane.  

PRO2 System View 

 

The 

System Views

 

lower pane displays the PRO2 system tree (refer to the following 

graphic). This tree can be expanded to display/configure the communications ports.

 

Expanded PRO2 System Tree 

 

C2Net Device Slot in Configuration Manager 

To incorporate a TV/FM Tuner into the system, drag the C2N-TTVFM from the 
Cresnet Control Modules | Cresnet Audio Modules folder of the 

Device Library

 and 

drop it in 

System Views

. The PRO2 system tree displays the C2N-TTVFM in Slot 9, 

with a default Net ID of 47 as shown in the following illustration.  

NOTE:

 For convenience, the C2N-TTVFM symbol includes an AM Tuner Controls 

slot for integrated configurations. If your system does not include the AMWX 
Tuner, simply ignore the AM Tuner Controls inputs and outputs in your program. 

NOTE:

 The first C2N-TTVFM in a system is preset with a Net ID of 47 when its 

symbol is dragged into the upper pane of 

System Views

. Additional units are 

assigned different Net ID numbers as they are added.
