Earliest Version Software Requirements for the PC

NOTE: Crestron recommends that you use the latest software to take advantage of
the most recently released features. The latest software is available from the Crestron
website.

Crestron has developed an assortment of Windows

®

-based software tools to develop

a controlled system. You can create a program to control the CEN-ISERVER control
system using the Crestron programming tools Crestron SystemBuilder™ or SIMPL
Windows. For the minimum recommended software versions, visit the Version
Tracker page of the Crestron website (

www.crestron.com/versiontracker

).

Programming with Crestron SystemBuilder

Crestron SystemBuilder is the easiest method of programming but does not offer as
much flexibility as SIMPL Windows. For additional details, download
SystemBuilder from the Crestron website and examine the extensive help file.

Programming with SIMPL Windows

NOTE: While SIMPL Windows can be used to program the CEN-ISERVER, it is
recommended to use SystemBuilder for configuring a system.

SIMPL Windows is Crestron’s premier software for programming Crestron control
systems. It is organized into two separate but equally important “Managers”.

Configuration Manager

Configuration Manager is the view where programmers “build” a Crestron control
system by selecting hardware from the Device Library.

• To incorporate the CEN-ISERVER into the system, drag the CEN-

ISERVER from the Ethernet Control Modules | Ethernet Audio Modules
folder of the Device Library and drop it in the System Views.
