Operations Guide - DOC. 5675A Input/Output Module: ST-IO · 9 Input/Output Module Crestron ST-IO NOTE: The following are file extensions for programs that include an ST-IO, developed for specific control system types: . smw source file . spz compiled file for 2-Series . bin compiled file for CNX generation . csz compiled file for CNX generation with SIMPL+ . ush compiled file for CNX generation with SIMPL+ header file . usp source code module for SIMPL+ . umc user macro for SIMPL NOTE: In the following description, the PRO2 control system is used. SIMPL Windows is Crestron's 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 an ST-IO. 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 communication ports is displayed in the System Views upper pane. PRO2 System Views The System Views lower pane displays the PRO2 system tree (refer to the following graphic). This tree can be expanded to display and configure the communication ports. Expanded PRO2 System Tree C2Net-Device Slot in Configuration Manager To incorporate an ST-IO into the system, drag the ST-IO from the Cresnet Control Modules | Cresnet I/O Control & Other Modules folder of the Device Library and 10 · Input/Output Module: ST-IO Operations Guide - DOC. 5675A Crestron ST-IO Input/Output Module drop it in System Views. The PRO2 system tree displays the ST-IO in Slot 9, with a default Net ID of 14 as shown in the following illustration. NOTE: The first ST-IO in a system is preset with a Net ID of 14 when its symbol is dragged into the upper pane of System Views. Additional ST-IO units are assigned different Net ID numbers as they are added. C2Net Device, Slot 9 Setting the Net ID in Device Settings Double-click the ST-IO icon to open the "Device Settings" window. If necessary, select the Net ID tab to change the Net ID as shown in the following figure. ST-IO "Device Settings" Window NOTE: SIMPL Windows automatically changes the Net ID values of a device added to a program if a duplicate device or a device with the same default Net ID already exists in the program. Always ensure that the hardware and software settings of the Net ID match. For Net ID hardware setting details, refer to "Identity Code" on page 6. Operations Guide - DOC. 5675A Input/Output Module: ST-IO · 11 Input/Output Module ST-IO Symbol in Programming Manager Crestron ST-IO Programming Manager is where programmers "program" a Crestron control system by assigning signals to symbols. The following graphic shows the ST-IO symbol in the SIMPL Windows' Programming Manager. ST-IO SIMPL Windows Symbol The ST-IO provides eight isolated relays for controlling low voltage contact closure devices such as drapes, screens and lifts. When a <relay> signal goes high, the corresponding relay closes for as long as the signal remains high. The four local <i> outputs can function in either closure or voltage mode. In closure mode (the default setting), an <i> signal goes high whenever the ST-IO detects the presence of a switch or relay closure to ground.
