SIMPL™ Windows
Programming
SIMPL (Symbol Intensive Master Programming Language) is an easy-to-use
programming language that is completely integrated and compatible with all
Crestron system hardware. The objects that are used in SIMPL are called symbols.
SIMPL Windows offers drag and drop functionality in a familiar Windows®
environment.

SIMPL Windows is Crestron Electronics' 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.

How the Program Works
A basic CEN-IO SIMPL program is shown below in block diagram form. This
example demonstrates a two zone lighting system (ZONE 1 and ZONE 2) that
utilizes a CT-3500 touchpanel as the user interface and a CEN-IO to control the
lights.
