Programming with SIMPL™ Windows

NOTE: VisionTools Pro (VT Pro) is a Windows compatible software package for
creating Crestron touchpanel screen designs. Refer to “Software” on page 2 for
additional details regarding VT Pro.

SIMPL (Symbol Intensive Master Programming Language) is an easy-to-use
programming language that is completely integrated and compatible with all
Crestron system hardware. The objects that are used in SIMPL are called symbols.
SIMPL Windows offers drag and drop functionality in a familiar Windows®
environment.

SIMPL Windows is Crestron Electronics' 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.

The next two subsections describe a sample SIMPL Windows program that utilizes a
Series 3200 touchpanel. The first subsection details how the sample program works
with a textual description and block diagram. The second subsection provides a
broad description of how to actually create the SIMPL Windows program.

NOTE: The following description assumes that the reader has knowledge of SIMPL
Windows. If not, please refer to the extensive help information provided with the
software.

NOTE: There is no need to recreate the sample SIMPL Windows program. A
similar copy of this program is available from Crestron’s ControlCD (version 5.2 and
later). Search for the CT-3200.SMW project in the SIMPL Windows Example Base.
