Crestron Active CNX Software Active CNX Introduction The ActiveCNX control can be thought of as a touchpanel symbol in SIMPL™ Windows. It can send and receive the three data types: digital, analog, and serial data. These inputs go into the control system and appear to the control system as an “e-control PC Interface” symbol. From that point, the user programs the SIMPL logic as if the system was a real touchpanel.
