Crestron has developed an assortment of Windows  -based software tools to develop
a Cresnet system. You can create a program to control the MC2E control system
using the Crestron programming tools D3 Pro™ or SIMPL Windows. Customers
whose focus is on lighting systems may prefer to use the D3 Pro software since it is
designed especially for creating lighting and environmental system control
applications. Customers already familiar with SIMPL Windows who are including a
lighting system as part of an overall control system project may prefer to continue
using SIMPL Windows. The following are the minimum recommended software
versions for the PC:
