Crestron RACK2 2-Series Card Cage System

Converting Programs and Modules Created for Other

Systems

A useful feature of SIMPL Windows is that you can convert a program created for

another type of control system, simply by changing the target to a RACK2.

To do this you first open the program, and then replace the existing control system

with the RACK2. That is, drag the RACK2 from the Control Systems folder onto the

existing control system in System Views, and click Yes when prompted to confirm

the replacement.

If the program contains SIMPL+ or User modules, the conversion might generate

error messages. This is because modules and programs often contain symbols with

“ambiguous” signals. For example, the inputs of the Serial to Analog symbol can be

defined as either analog or serial. Although X-Generation processors support

ambiguous signals, the 2-Series processor requires all signal types to be strictly

defined.

If the program you want to convert contains SIMPL+ or User modules, Crestron

recommends that you first convert each module before converting the larger

program. In this way, the compiler can resolve any ambiguous signals in the modules

and minimize errors when the larger program is converted.

Converting SIMPL+ Modules

1. Open the SIMPL+ module you want to convert.

2. Choose the 2-Series processor as the target by clicking the toolbar

button, as shown in the following illustration.

SIMPL+ Toolbar

NOTE: You can select both X and 2-Series as the targets, so that the module will work

for both control system types. However, you will be limited to SIMPL+ keywords and

functions that are supported on both systems. If you do not choose a target, then the

module may or may not work, depending on the constructs that are used.

3. Save and compile the module by clicking the Save and Compile

toolbar button; alternatively, click Save and Compile on the Build

menu (or press F12).

Converting User Modules

1. Open the User module you want to convert.

2. Click Project | Edit Program Header.

3. Click 2-Series in the Target Control System Classes list box.

You can select other types of control systems as well, but then you will be limited to

symbols that are supported by all of these platforms. The module may still work on

unselected control systems so long as unsupported symbols are not used. Selecting a

control system means that you are requiring the module to work there.
