connection sheets or other supplied information to determine which directory
corresponds to a given touchpanel.
Ops Subdirectory - The files in this subdirectory contain the CNMSX operating
system with which the program was tested. Ensure that the operating system version
currently loaded is equal to or newer than the version included here, so that the
program runs properly. For help with uploading an operating system, refer to
"Updating the Control System" on page 31.
File Types in Ops Subdirectory
FILE TYPE DESCRIPTION
.upz
This is a control system file. For more information regarding these files, refer to
"Updating the Control System".
Programs Subdirectory - The files in this subdirectory (shown on the next page)
contain the system program. This is the main program, which loads into the CNMSX
and determines the exact functionality of the system.
File Types in Programs Subdirectory
FILE TYPE DESCRIPTION
.asv SIMPL Windows auto-save file.
.bin This is the executable code for all CNX control systems.
.csz
Crestron SIMPL+ archive. This archive contains all of the SIMPL+
executable code (from both user modules and crestron modules) that
the Transfer Program dialog will send to the CNMSX.
.dip
This is the default IP Table that contains the IP addresses of all of the
ethernet devices in the system. It is generated when the program is
compiled and the CNX control system contains an optional
CNXENET+ expansion card and Ethernet devices.
.sig
This file contains information required by Test Manager (see SIMPL
Windows help for more information) for debugging programs in real-
time. It is generated each time the program is compiled.
.sm2 SIMPL Windows program backup file.
.smp
This is the SIMPL-C file that is generated from the SMW file when a
program is compiled. In SIMPL Windows version 1.18 or lower, this
file is what actually gets compiled into the BIN file. In versions after
1.18, this file may or may not be generated and is not required.
.smw
This is the SIMPL Windows program file. It contains the source code
for the main system program.
Userdb Subdirectory - The files in this subdirectory are user database infrared (IR)
drivers, which are needed to interface with certain IR-controlled devices in the
system. These differ from Crestron database IR drivers in that the former are included
as part of a Crestron Database release.
File Types in Userdb Subdirectory
FILE TYPE DESCRIPTION
This is a user IR driver file. It is needed during the convert/compile process in
order to properly compile the program. If recompilation of the program is
necessary, use the Import Program option or copy any IR files received into the
default user database directory (see SIMPL Windows help for more
information). Alternatively, set the SIMPL Windows userdb directory to the
directory where the macros exist. In SIMPL Windows, this is accomplished
from the Directories tab by selecting
