CRESNET II or an RS-232 based control system. The touchpanel is capable of replacing large, complicated panels with a series of simpler screens, each specific to the control problem at hand. Thus, very large numbers of functions can be made available to the user without the confusion associated with hardware panels of that complexity.

The touchpanel uses the programmed project until another set not forward any queries to is uploaded from the PC. The PC may be disconnected from the rack or panel this address.
Feature Buttons ColorTouch and BriteTouch configurations with the letter “B” in their suffix have seven feature buttons located to the left of the touchpanel screen. The buttons are identified with numbers one through seven from top to bottom. These buttons are hard-coded join numbers that serve as “hot keys”...

Preparation for Use The only preparation that may be required is to mount the touchpanel. If a lectern mount Series 3000 touchpanel is being installed, the cutout dimensions are required. Refer to the lectern cutout details below for these configurations. Cutout measurements in the figure have been rounded up to the nearest 1/8 inch.
(Doc. 5411) or, if necessary, the network modular cable requirements (Doc. 5682). 2.

Series 3000 Touchpanels support panel operation via a host computer through the RS-232 Protocol RS-232 port. Crestron recommends that the following serial data format is set. Suggested Serial Data Format These settings may be altered via the RS-232 Menu when configuring the touchpanel, however, doing so may prevent Crestron supplied software from Operations Guide - DOC.

'R' code always follows a 'P' code. A fixed three-digit format is used to simplify software on the host. Codes may be sent to the touchpanel in the same form as they are received. The 'P' form turns on a function and the 'R' form turns off a function; sending back information received from the touchpanel (i.e., jumping pins 2 and 3) makes the...
The print date of this Operations Guide occurs so precariously close to the official release of SIMPL Windows that an exemplary discussion of both programming methods should coexist. The Workshop is Crestron’s DOS-based programming Operations Guide - DOC. 8094B CRESTRON @CNow is the time<cr>...

SIMPL Windows, by virtue of its name, is Windows-based. Although Crestron will continue to provide support for Workshop queries, there is no plan to add new features to it. For this reason, Crestron suggests that all new programming be done with SIMPL Windows.
Use the Configuration Manager workspace in SIMPL Windows to select and configure all the devices that need to be included into the system. For this example, a CT-3000 must be added to the system and its NET ID must be set to 11, shown below.
