Crestron CP3 & CP3N 3-Series Control Systems
Programming with SIMPL Windows
NOTE: While SIMPL Windows can be used to program the CP3, 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 and Program.
Configuration Manager
Configuration Manager is the view where programmers “build” a Crestron control
system by selecting hardware from the Device Library.
To incorporate the CP3 or CP3N into the system, drag the CP3 or CP3N from the
Crestron Devices | Control Systems folder of the Device Library and drop it in the
System Views.
Locating the CP3 and CP3N in the Device Library
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).
