Programming with Crestron SystemBuilder or D3

Pro

The easiest

method of

rogramming,

but does not

offer as much

lexibility

as SIMPL

Windows.

Crestron SystemBuilder offers automatic programming for such

residential and commercial applications as audio distribution, home

theater, video conferencing, and lighting. The interface of this tool guides

you through a few basic steps for designating rooms and specifying the

control system, touchpanels, devices, and functionality. Crestron

SystemBuilder then programs the system, including all touchpanel

projects and control system logic.

Crestron D3 Pro similarly offers automatic programming for lighting and

HVAC projects.

Both Crestron SystemBuilder and D3 Pro integrate fully with Crestron's

suite of software development tools, including SIMPL Windows, VT

Pro-e, and the Crestron Database. Both access these tools behind the

scenes, enabling you to easily create robust systems.

NOTE: The following assumes that the reader has knowledge of SIMPL

Windows. If not, refer to the extensive help information provided with

the software.

NOTE: In the following description, the PRO2 control system is used.

SIMPL Windows is Crestron's software for programming Crestron

control systems. It provides a well-designed graphical environment with

a number of workspaces (i.e., windows) in which a programmer can

select, configure, program, test, and monitor a Crestron control system.
