The Crestron SmarTouch STS system is the most user friendly control system on the market today. The basic SmarTouch STS system (control processor and touchpanel) will accommodate many installations. If you want something more customized or need to include additional devices, our line of expansion modules is just what you need.
Expansion Modules:
SmarTouch Wizard, Crestron Windows® control software for the SmarTouch system, will change the way you think about setting up a control system. No more costly planning and programming are necessary; just follow the nine easy steps and you've got a fully functioning system. If you want something more custom, the sky's the limit...it's your choice.
Too good to be true? Let's walk through the nine steps and see just how easy it is.
Step 1
Click "Next" on the opening screen and you're on your way.
Step 2
Name the system and choose a directory for the files.
Step 3
Add the devices. Pick the device type (VCR, projector etc.), the manufacturer and the model. Then give the device a name and indicate if you're using the current sensor module. Click the "Add" button and that's it.
Step 4
Select user interface(s) - otherwise known as the touchpanel. Name the interface. Next, type in a few words of opening text for the panel. Then - here's the exciting part - choose a template. Crestron provides basic templates (plus you can create your own to suit your specific needs; either way, this is what creates the touchpanel screens, automatically). Click the "Add" button.
Step 5
Now you're ready to generate the system. Click the "Generate System" button and sit back while the SmarTouch Wizard does its magic. Once you see the "System Generated Successfully" message, you're ready for the next step.
Step 6
Review your system report. SmarTouch Wizard gives you a summary of all devices used and even tells you where each device should be connected. View the report on screen or print it out and take it with you to hook up the equipment.
Steps 7 and 8
Upload the program to the control processor and then to the touchpanel(s) and you're almost finished!
Step 9
Congratulations! You're finished with the basic system. If you want to customize the touchpanel, you would do that before downloading the software. Otherwise, you have a functioning system...in a matter of minutes!
There you have it - the nine easy steps to setting up a SmarTouch control system. Keep in mind that all of the templates for touchpanels can be easily modified and saved as new templates. You may install our templates right out of the box or use them as a starting point for something more custom. If you're a more advanced user or have your own libraries, SmarTouch Wizard Pro can take you right into customization; the choice is yours.
