Program Manager Program Manager is the view where programmers “program” a Crestron control
system by assigning signals to symbols. The symbol can be viewed by double
clicking on the icon or dragging it into Detail View. Each signal in the symbol is
described in the SIMPL Windows help file (F1).
Programming with VisionTools Pro-e
Touchpanel screens should be created in VisionTools ® Pro-e (VT Pro-e) to allow
switching of source signals to desired outputs as well as selection of the system
mode. There are no special programming requirements to use the functions of the
TPS-12G/15G/17G-QM in a room-control system.
Multi-Mode Objects
Multi-mode objects offer high-
performance programming!
The single most-advanced VisionTools Pro-e high-performance programming
technique involving the TPS-12G/15G/17G-QM is the concept of multi-mode
objects. A multi-mode object (i.e. button, legend, etc.) is an object drawn on a
VT Pro-e page that can have one or more active and inactive visible settings
(modes).
For examples, refer to www.crestron.com/exampleprograms and search for multi-
mode object examples. This file contains the VT Pro-e touchpanel files and SIMPL
Windows files that illustrate the high-performance capabilities of multi-mode
objects.
WAV File Audio Messages
The TPS-12G/15G/17G-QM touchpanels are capable of playing audio messages as
system prompts and responses. These files are recorded as WAV files on a PC using
an audio utility such as Sound Recorder that is packaged with Microsoft Windows
95/98/Me/XP/NT/ 2000/Vista™. Files from other sources may also be converted to
an acceptable format by using this or a similar utility. Many other audio utilities are
available commercially or as shareware. The TPS-12G/15G/17G-QM touchpanels
