Crestron electronic Ethernet Programming with SIMPL Windows

These commands (dir, del, xputfile, free, initialize, and type) are available for

executing file system commands. There is no need to use these commands via the

setup menus since they are duplicated in Crestron software tools.

These commands (forth, newSIMPL, pause, and resume) are available for executing

SIMPL+ commands. There is no need to use these commands via the setup menus

since they are duplicated in SIMPL+.

Programming with SIMPL™ Windows

To implement the eServer in a Crestron CNX control system, use a SIMPL Windows

program (drop the CEN-OEM definition from the Ethernet Devices folder in

Configuration Manager). The eServer definition can be found in the Ethernet Control

Modules folder in the Device Library. The CEN-OEM, like any other device that is

controlled via Ethernet from a Crestron control system, gets an IP ID and an entry in

the IP Table of the control system. Refer to "ip_adr" on page 15 for setting the CEN-

OEM IP ID. For details about the IP Table, refer to "Add_master" on page 14.

Use of the CEN-OEM symbol is necessary to incorporate the eServer functionality in

a Crestron CNX control system. The SIMPL+ program or module that complements

the SIMPL Windows program with eServer symbol is necessary to program the

eServer itself.

The interface to the CEN-OEM symbol in Program Manager looks like the symbol

for a touchpanel. There are digital input/output lists, analog input/output lists, and

serial input/output lists. The figure after this paragraph illustrates the CEN-OEM

digital symbol as it appears in the Detail View of Program Manager.

CEN-OEM Symbol

The following table shows how the SIMPL+ program inside the CEN-OEM

interprets data routed into and out of the symbol.
