SIMPL Windows is Crestron's primary 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. 
This section describes a sample SIMPL Windows program that includes a  
C2VEQ-4. 
Configuration Manager is where programmers “build” a Crestron control system by 
selecting hardware from the Device Library. In Configuration Manager, drag the 
PRO2 from the Control Systems folder of the Device Library and drop it in the 
upper pane of the System Views. The PRO2 with its associated ports is displayed in 
the System Views upper pane.

The System Views lower pane displays the PRO2 system tree. This tree can be 
expanded to display and configure the ports.
