Crestron CP2/CP2E 2-Series Integrated Control Processor
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-Series 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: Note that you can select both X and 2-Series as the targets, so that the
module will work for both types of control systems. 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.
