TASK REQUIRED 

SOFTWARE 

VERSION 

Program with simple 
wizards for lighting 
systems using a  
CLF-DIMRFB (optional 
but recommended). 

Crestron D3 Pro version 2.0.6 or 
later or SystemBuilder version 
2.0.6 or later. Refer to software 
release notes or Crestron website 
for other required Crestron 
software packages.  

Programming with Crestron D3 Pro or 
SystemBuilder 

Crestron D3 Pro and SystemBuilder are the easiest methods of 
programming, but do not offer as much flexibility as SIMPL Windows. 
For additional details, download D3 Pro or SystemBuilder from the 
Crestron website and examine the extensive help files. 

Programming with SIMPL Windows 

NOTE:

  While SIMPL Windows can be used to program the  

CLF-DIMRFB, it is recommended to use D3 Pro or SystemBuilder for 
configuring system. 

SIMPL Windows is Crestron’s premier software for programming 
Crestron control systems. It is organized into two separate, but equally 
important “Managers”. 

Configuration 
Manager 

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

Device Library

• 

To incorporate the CLF-DIMRFB into the system, first drag the 
C2N-MNETGW (MNET Gateway) from the Wireless Receivers | 
Wireless Receivers (RF) folder of the 

Device Library

 and drop it in 

the 

System Views. 

Then drag the CLF-DIMRFB from the Lighting 

| Wall Dimmers/Switches (infiNET CLW Series) folder of the 

Device Library

 and drop it on the C2N-MNETGW

.
