Crestron QM-WMC Wall Plate Media Center
SystemBuilder integrates 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.
Programming with SIMPL Windows
NOTE: While SIMPL Windows can be used to program the QM-WMC,
it is recommended to use SystemBuilder and Digital Media Tools
software for configuring and tuning a QuickMedia system.
NOTE: The following are acceptable file extensions for programs that
include a QM-WMC, developed for specific control system types:
.smw: projectname.smw (SIMPL Windows source file)
.spz: projectname.spz (compiled file for 2-series)
.usp: projectname.usp (source code module for SIMPL+)
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.
SIMPL Windows offers drag and drop functionality in a familiar
Windows

environment.
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 QM-RMCRX control system is
used.
This section explains how to create a SIMPL Windows program that
includes a wall plate.
Configuration Manager is where programmers “build” a Crestron control
system by selecting hardware from the Device Library. In Configuration
Manager, drag the QM-RMCRX from the Control Systems folder of the
Device Library and drop it in the upper pane of the System Views. The
QM-RMCRX with its associated communication ports is displayed in the
System Views upper pane.
