Crestron has developed an assortment of Windows®-ba s ed software tools to de velo p

a controlled system. You can create a program to control the PROAMP-7X400 using

the Crestron programming tools SystemBuilder™ or SIMPL Windows. For the

minimum recommended software versions, visit the Version Tracker page of the

Crestron website (www.crestron.com/versiontracker).

Crestron SystemBuilder is the easiest method of programming but does not offer as

much flexibility as SIMPL Windows. For addition al details, download

SystemBuilder from the Crestron website and examine the extensive help file.

NOTE: While SIMPL Windows can be used to program the PROAMP-7X400, it is

recommended to use SystemBuilder.

SIMPL Windows is Crestron’s premier software for programming Crestron control

systems. It is organized into two separate but equally important “Managers”.

Configuration Manager Configuration Manager is the view where programmers “build” a Crestron control

system by selecting hardware from the Device Library.

NOTE: When paired with a PSPHD, the amplifier does not need to be added to the

SIMPL Windows program. Adding the amplifier to the program is recommended

when a paired PSPHD is not present in the system.
