ActiveCNX™
The
Active
CNX
control can be thought of as a touch panel symbol in SIMPL
Windows. It can send and receive the 3 data types:
digital
,
analog
, and
serial
data.
These inputs go into the control system and appear to the control system as a
“Ethernet touch panel” symbol. From that point, the user programs the SIMPL logic
as if the system was a real touch panel. The
Active
CNX
control is distributed as part
of Crestron e-control SDK (Software Development Kit). It is a Microsoft ActiveX
control for communications with Crestron e-control Enabled devices such as
CNMSX and CEN series. It can be used in a browser or called from a Microsoft
Visual Basic program.
Bookmark
The bookmark feature allows programmers to bookmark a particular Detail View
setup and save the view. This can be very helpful and save time when working on
larger programs. The bookmark command will always bring you to the Detail View
you bookmarked.
Button Bar
Sometimes referred to as Tool Bar. SIMPL Windows and its utilities have numerous
time saving commands on the button bars. Most notable are the Program, Configure,
and the Convert/Compile buttons.
