Earliest Version Software Requirements for the PC
NOTE: Crestron recommends that you use the latest software to take advantage of
the most recently released features. The latest software is available from the Crestron
website.
Crestron has developed an assortment of Windows  -based software tools to develop
a Cresnet system. For the minimum recommended software versions, visit the
Version Tracker page of the Crestron website (
www.crestron.com/versiontracker ).
Configuring with Crestron SystemBuilder
Crestron SystemBuilder is the easiest method of programming but does not offer as
much flexibility as SIMPL Windows. For additional details, download
SystemBuilder from the Crestron website and examine the extensive help file.
Configuring with SIMPL Windows
NOTE: While SIMPL Windows can be used to program the QM-FTCC, it is
recommended to use SystemBuilder for configuring a QuickMedia system.
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.
• To incorporate the QM-FTCC into the system, drag the QM-FTCC from the
Cresnet Control Modules | QM Series folder of the Device Library and drop
it in the System Views.
