Dual AC Power Control Module Crestron ST-PC
ST-PC Symbol in Programming Manager
Programming Manager is where programmers “program” a Crestron control system
by assigning signals to symbols. The following graphic shows the ST-PC symbol in
the SIMPL Windows’ Programming Manager.
ST-PC SIMPL Windows Symbol
The ST-PC provides two discrete AC sockets. The < pwr > inputs supply power to a
device for as long as the input is high; when a < pwr > input goes low AC power to
the device is turned off.
The < press > outputs go high whenever the corresponding push button on the ST-PC
is pressed.
Device Extenders
To facilitate network functions and diagnostics, SIMPL Windows provides two
device extenders for the ST-PC.
The Poll Manager and The Poll Manager (2 Series Extended) symbols are device
extenders for plug-in control cards and for Cresnet devices and touchpanels. The
Poll Manager takes the device on and offline without need to physically disconnect it
from the network, and reports the current connection status of the device.
The device extenders are available with X-Series and 2-Series control systems; they
are not available with the ST-CP or CN-Series control systems.
To add a device extender, right-click the ST-PC in Program View , point to Insert
Device Extender and select the desired device extender. To program a device
extender, expand the ST-PC in
Program View and drag the device extender to Detail
View .
Uploading
Assuming a PC is properly connected to the entire system, Crestron programming
software allows the programmer to upload programs and projects after their
development to the system and network devices. However, there are times when the
files for the program and projects are compiled and not uploaded. Instead, compiled
files may be distributed from programmers to installers, from Crestron to dealers,
etc. In those instances, one has the option to upload via the programming software
or to upload via the Crestron Viewport.
NOTE: The Crestron Viewport is available as a pull-down command from SIMPL
Windows and VT Pro-e ( Tools | Viewport ) or as a standalone utility. The Viewport
utility performs multiple system tasks, primarily via an RS-232 or TCP/IP
connection between the control system and a PC. It is used to observe system
processes, upload new operating systems and firmware, change system and network
